Injuries To Children
Children are not just little grown-ups. When a child is injured in an accident, he or she may need services that an adult would not need, such as counseling to overcome fears. In addition, if a child's actions contributed to his or her injuries, he or she would not be held to the same standard as an adult for comparative negligence.
For more than a decade, the attorneys of Aiken & Jacobsen in Sacramento, California, have successfully handled cases involving injuries to children. We offer a free initial consultation to discuss your case.
The following are examples of the types of child injury cases we handle:
- Accidents in which your child was a passenger in a car
- Bike and skateboard accidents
- Accidents while crossing the street inside or outside of a crosswalk
- Playground injuries
- Day care injuries
- Injuries at school
- Dog bite injuries
- Swimming pool accidents and drownings
Even if another lawyer has told you that you don't have a case, contact our lawyers for a second opinion. Our lawyers are willing and able to take on complex cases where liability may be contested.
A serious accident can result in lifelong trauma to a child. Our attorneys will be aggressive in seeking maximum compensation to deal with issues such as the physiological impact of the injury and scarring. When a child suffers a disfiguring scar, doctors may delay cosmetic surgery until after the child has grown. It is important to demand enough compensation to cover all services your child may need now and in the future.
