Injuries to Children

Atlanta Child Injury Attorney

As parents and family members ourselves, we can easily understand how difficult it is for other parents to determine whether a sport or product, such as a toy or bicycle, is safe for their child. If your child has been injured in an unsafe surrounding or by a dangerous product, the Law Offices of Joseph A. Fried want you to be fairly compensated for those injuries. Contact us in Atlanta or Peachtree City right away.

From Our Family to Yours

For 15 years we've offered conscientious, sympathetic, quality representation for children who have been hurt in school or on the playground, on school buses, at camp, in sports, and from lack of supervision.

In case after case, these efforts have been successful. That's why we say: we maximize results, one client at a time. That credo is especially important to us when the client is young, vulnerable, and defenseless against the mistakes or negligence of others.

Causes of Injuries to Children

It could be that your child was victimized by a defective car seat or bicycle helmet, in which case a product manufacturer may be liable. Or it might have been a dog bite, or a fracture suffered in a fall, and therefore the responsibility of a pet or property owner. Property owners also bear responsibility for swimming pool drownings.

Injuries or deaths caused by personal or commercial motor vehicle accident could be covered by a number of different policies, besides personal financial obligations of the wrong-doer. Or if the harm or loss of life was due to a birth injury or medical accident, medical malpractice insurance may cover the injury. We have a formidable background in medical malpractice, and can call upon that experience to get results for you.

The Difficult Road Ahead

Family members caring for a seriously injured child will need to be there to support the child through stressful, exhausting medical procedures and extended hospital stays. Families may also have long-term worries about the effects those injuries will have on the future. We know the weight of these concerns first-hand, having spoken to, and spoken for, so many victims and their loved ones.

Child injury attorney Joseph A. Fried is aggressive, sympathetic and knows how to evaluate the financial toll your situation has taken. Our firm can help you to recover expenses related to medical treatments and disability, as well as pain and suffering, from those who should be held accountable.

You and your beloved child deserve justice. We will do everything in our power, in outside negotiations or courtroom litigation, to attain it for you.

More Information

Children – the most vulnerable in society – are, unfortunately, too often the victims of catastrophic injury due to the negligent or reckless actions of another person or company.

Injuries to children are traumatic events for both the child and the parents. Not surprisingly, children respond differently to injuries than adults, both physically and emotionally. In addition, the there are laws uniquely applicable to litigation involving injury to minors, which must be considered when pursuing legal action on behalf of a child.

Whether the injury is trauma to the brain, damage to the spine, or burn-related, we are uniquely suited to representing children and their parents in a family’s time of need.
