Child Accident Claims

Children's Accident Claims We all seek to keep children safe from harm. But sometimes that protection fails and the consequences can be devastating for both child and family.

Injury+ lawyers always pursue the best outcome for a claim pursued on behalf of a child. We have an in-depth understanding of children's accidents and the issues that affect the child's family after an injury. We know how to make a difference. Injury+ solicitors provide dedication and sensitivity to handle child accidents combined with the highest level of professionalism and expertise.

Children get injured through accidents in the home, at school, on the road or in other public places. If your child has suffered an injury, contact injury+ if you think you could make a child accident claim. If you are a parent, teacher or other professional, feel free to contact us on behalf of a child who has been injured. The law states that people under the age of 18 cannot deal with their own compensation claim because they do not have the legal capacity. A Litigation Friend (usually a parent) needs to be appointed to act on the child's behalf.

Where a child's accident has resulted in serious injuries, we can travel to meet with clients in their own homes or in hospital, as we appreciate there may be difficulties when travelling. Injury+ lawyers can also assist in obtaining interim payments for funding care, medical treatment and educational support, in addition to securing compensation through a child accident claim.

Children accident claims can take years - especially in the case of a serious injury. It is important to properly assess the long-term impact of the injury as sometimes the effects of an injury only become more apparent as the child grows up and progresses through school. Generally, the more serious the injury and the younger the child when injured, the longer the child accident claim will take.

Our injury+ solicitors and experts can guide you through the whole process.
