What are My Rights after Child Care Accidents?

Daycare injuries can occur from several causes; from abusive staff members, to a child being left in a hot daycare van, to an accident on the playground. Whatever the situation, the key is to determine if the staff or the facility was to blame and should therefore be held accountable for the harm your child has endured.

A staff member who is on duty is considered to be an agent of the daycare, therefore if they failed to fulfill their responsibilities and your child was harmed as a result, you should be able to pursue a claim against the daycare itself.  

A South Carolina child care accident lawyer can assist you with determining exactly what took place and who is to blame for what happened to your child. There may be options of different types of claims from which you can recover full compensation for economic and non-financial losses resulting from your child’s injury.

How Can I Obtain Compensation for Child Care Accidents?

To obtain compensation for injuries to your child care facility, you can settle with the daycare center if they make you a fair offer of enough money to cover your losses. Legal representation is strongly suggested, in order to negotiate an appropriate settlement by this approach.

If necessary, we can also pursue your claim in civil court. If your case can be proven, the jury may award you more compensation than was offered in a settlement, depending upon the circumstances.
