What Do You Do If Your Child Has Been Hurt? Placing your child in the care of another individual requires the highest degree of trust and confidence in the care and service that an adult has promised to provide. To discover that your child has been harmed while in the care of a day care provider is a terrifying experience for any parent. At Colucci, Colucci, Marcus & Flavin, P.C., we fight for parents of children who have been injured or abused at day care. Our attorneys take these matters very seriously and devote the legal skill and diligence needed to see the case through to provide closure and a sense of justice to the family. Holding Day Care Responsible For Child Injuries Laws and standards are in place to ensure that children are protected at day care. This includes requiring a safe ratio of workers to children, proper attention to each child, adequate food and water, and safe and secure facilities. When a provider fails to deliver this or provide adequate supervision, preventable injuries can occur. Day care negligence injuries can range from minor accidents to more severe emergencies and serious injuries. This can include: Falls from heights or down stairs Choking or swallowing small objects Broken bones and fractures Harm or injury from other children Physical, verbal or sexual abuse Children, especially young ones, are often unable to explain the fact that they were hurt or how they were hurt. The signs may show up, however, such as bruising or strange stories about treatment from others. A child may seem afraid to use the bathroom after time spent at day care. Our lawyers will zealously investigate the situation to find the truth and hold the responsible parties accountable for the injury they have allowed to happen to your child, filing a day care negligence lawsuit, if necessary.
