Generally, anyone under the age of 18 cannot file a lawsuit without the help of a parent, adult or guardian. Children and adolescents are at high risk for many injuries including those caused by:

• Cars and other motor vehicle accidents
• Fireworks
• Playground equipment
• Ingestion of household products such as cosmetics and personal care products, cleaning substances, pain relievers, foreign bodies, and plants
• Household fires
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Swimming-related accidents

In some instances these accidents can lead to death or severe disability. Personal injury lawsuits filed on behalf of children may therefore deal with the extraordinary costs that may be involved with the care of a severely injured child through their maturity and adult life.

If you are a parent, guardian or concerned adult related to a minor who has been severely injured, we'd like to try to help. Contact us online or call us at 407-244-1212 or Toll Free at 800-381-8299 to set up a FREE consultation to discuss your legal options.
