We’re Here To Help

Nothing is more devastating than seeing your child hurt because of someone else’s carelessness. Sadly, preventable accidents like car crashes, drownings, and unsafe products are among the leading causes of serious injuries to children.

If your child was injured, we’ll investigate what happened, identify who is responsible, and handle the legal process fighting for the compensation your family deserves, so you can focus on your child’s recovery.

Filing A Claim For A Child Injury

A serious injury to a child can affect their health, development, and future in profound ways. In Nevada, child injury claims follow different rules than adult cases. A parent or legal guardian must file the claim, and courts apply more lenient standards when determining a child’s liability. The statute of limitations may also be extended until the child turns 18.

Compensation can cover medical expenses, future treatment, rehabilitation, caretaker costs, disfigurement, loss of earning potential, pain and suffering, and diminished quality of life. Because children may require long-term care, calculating a fair settlement can be complex.

Liable parties may include drivers, property owners, schools or daycare centers, teachers or staff, healthcare providers, businesses, product manufacturers, dog owners, and playground operators.

A Nevada child injury attorney can explain your rights, gather evidence, assess future needs, identify responsible parties, negotiate with insurance companies, and take your case to court if necessary. All settlements involving minors must be approved by the court to ensure they serve the child’s best interest.
