St. Matthews Child Injury LawyersSkilled and Compassionate Child Injury Attorneys

If your child has suffered from a significant injury, you need a skilled and experienced lawyer to assist in seeking compensation on your child’s behalf. Strom Law Firm’s  St. Matthews Child Injury Lawyers are experienced in all types of personal injury claims, including birth injuries.

We are ready and able to help you understand who may be at fault, what compensation may be available, and the process.

Different Types of Children Injuries

Children suffer injuries in different types of ways:

Birth Injuries

The birth of a child should be a joyous occasion. But sometimes things go wrong due to negligence by medical providers. Some injuries during birth can cause a long road to recovery for your child and a lot of financial costs to go with it. Other more serious injuries can result in life-long consequences, completely altering the future. If a doctor fails to follow a reasonable standard of care, medical providers and their facilities may be held liable for any resulting injuries.

Car Accidents

Children are helpless as our passengers while we go about our daily living in our vehicles. When an accident occurs, those who are at fault should compensate your child for any resulting injury. Significant injuries are unfortunately common in car accidents, including:

Animal Bites

If your child is bitten or attacked by a dog, whether that of a neighbor, a passerby, or a park visitor, the owner of that dog should pay for any resulting injuries. An owner of a dog is strictly liable for any injuries caused by their dog if that dog was not provoked. If your child is bitten by a dog, immediately get that dog’s vaccination records. Rabies is a very serious illness that can result in death. Also, get any information on the owner, including name, phone number, and address, right away. This information will be important if you need to file a lawsuit in the future.

Medical Malpractice

When your child presents with the symptoms of a serious illness or injury, you rely on doctors to help diagnose that injury and provide appropriate treatment for your child. When doctors fail in that duty, you may have grounds for a medical malpractice claim on behalf of your child.

This may include:

  • Misdiagnosis
  • Improper treatment
  • Failure to treat
  • Medication errors
  • Surgical or procedural errors

Amusement Ride Injuries

There is no happiness quite like seeing a child enjoy the State Fair, a trampoline facility, water park, or local carnival. But that joy can turn to chaos, fear, and pain in a matter of seconds when the ride or attraction turns out to be unreasonably dangerous, malfunctions or was not properly maintained. Serious injuries can occur, with multiple possibilities as to the persons and entities responsible.

Product Liability

Unfortunately, toys and other products intended for children harm those very same children every day, whether due to negligent design or negligent manufacturing. These products can sometimes cause chemical reactions, asphyxiation or choking, severe injuries, and fires. Companies that put harmful toys and other children’s products into the stream of commerce should pay for any injuries resulting from their carelessness.

School Bus Injuries

Across America, buses provide more than 10 billion rides to students every year. You, as a parent, expect that those bus rides will end with your child safely at school or home. What you never imagine is that a bus ride could end with your child in the hospital. Bus accidents can be caused by a variety of reasons, including maintenance, bus driver error, or an error by other drivers on the road.

Daycare Accidents and Playground Injuries

We all hope we can trust a well-researched daycare facility to safely supervise and care for our children as if they were their own while we are at work. However, daycares do fail us and our children at times. Whether its improper supervision of children or workers, neglect of an infant or child, negligent allergen protection, or improper maintenance of playground equipment, if your child is injured, they deserve to be compensated.

Compensation After a Child Injury

A child injury claim will never erase the pain and suffering caused to both you and your child, but it can help lessen the burden on you and your family. Compensation for such an injury will depend on the severity of the injury and the nature of the liability. Damages can include the following:

  • Medical expenses, current, and future
  • Pain and suffering
  • Disfigurement
  • Loss of future potential of the child
  • Loss in income by a parent providing childcare

What Our Clients Say

They truly care
Mrs Vallery, who answered the phone took more care and attention to detail than any other law office, that I have called, in 2 years+. She diligently took notes to give to the lawyers and cared about my situation and let me actually tell everything without cutting me short. Out of over 100 law offices, this is rare treatment. Care. Consideration. That means more than anything going through this…

From Self-Representation to Victory in SSDI Case!
My experience with Mario and his staff was outstanding. When everyone said to give up my case with SSDI and after being poorly represented and losing. I had to file my own appeals and represent myself. I literally called every attorney in the book. Then I called Mario cold – I expected one more no! Well, this gentleman took my case and won. He knows the law and cares a lot. I am proud to call him my friend. If you need a professional to help you, call these guys.

A Lifesaver in the Courtroom, Ensuring Freedom with A1 Professionalism
Needed a lifesaver. I had gotten myself into a bad situation and the possibility of going to prison. Through the diligence and hard work done by attorney Alley B., I was able to walk out of that courtroom a free man. No tricks just hard down attorney work. She was an A1 professional and knew every inch of the Law pertaining to my case. For that, I am forever grateful.
