Ohio households typically earn $67,873 a year (U.S. Census Bureau SAIPE 2023, state estimate). Child daycare negligence laywer lawsuits in Ohio are filed in the county Court of Common Pleas where the claim arose — not in a made-up city court. Serious injuries are treated at ACS Level I trauma centers including MetroHealth Medical Center (Cleveland); The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center (Columbus); University of Cincinnati Medical Center (Cincinnati); ProMedica Toledo Hospital (Toledo); Miami Valley Hospital (Dayton); Mercy Health St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital (Youngstown). Ohio Revised Code § 2305.10 gives most injury claims two years; § 2315.33 bars recovery at 51% fault; § 4509.51 is still $25,000 per person in auto liability.

An injured child is every parent’s nightmare, mainly when it occurs where they’re supposed to be safe. You take your kiddo to daycare and start your day — only to get a call that there has been an emergency, an accident, and your child is hurt. Nothing can make a parent’s heart skip a beat like that call, which too many families have gone through. Whether a minor injury or a severe accident, daycare negligence is often to blame.

The civil justice system exists to help families who have experienced these tragedies. We’ll help you navigate this system and get to the bottom of the incident. Unfortunately, many daycare injuries result from negligence or inappropriate response by daycare staff. While you focus on your family, we’ll fight for your best interests.

A BRIEF LOOK AT CHILD DAYCARE NEGLIGENCE

The daycare could be liable if a child is hurt because of inadequate supervision or negligence in ohio. Personal injury occurs when negligence or carelessness directly causes someone else’s injury. However, another facet of personal injury deals with the lack of proper supervision, which may lead to or cause an injury in the eyes of the law.

Negligent supervision exists when a daycare fails to meet its legal duty to offer adequate and responsible supervision to a vulnerable part, in this case — your child. It can happen in many ways and is often a preventable tragedy. For example, a staff member could be distracted by their phone while a child falls off the jungle gym.

Another example could come from the daycare, where the facility fails to secure small objects that could prevent a child from choking.

HOW WE CAN HELP

Families trust our services because we care. The Henry Law Firm is incredibly experienced in navigating the nuances and complexities surrounding child daycare negligence cases. We work tirelessly to prove breach of duty and responsibility on the daycare’s behalf.

Our compassionate and dedicated personal injury staff holds open lines of communication with your family, keeping you in the loop regarding your child’s daycare negligence case at all times. We’ll work to establish both the actual causation of your child’s injury and the proximate causation. These are the two foundations for negligent supervision — and we understand how to develop and prove these claims for our clients.

A daycare has a legal obligation to keep your child safe. Our legal professionals work to prove that the injuries sustained at the daycare resulted from the facility’s inability to uphold that obligation and that the injury was not only foreseeable but preventable. We work hard to prove that the daycare is at fault for these injuries and will work relentlessly for your family.

WHAT IF THERE IS A SIGNED LIABILITY WAIVER?

You may suddenly remember signing a liability waiver at your child’s daycare and panic. Don’t worry. This documentation does not necessarily leave you without options and does not indicate that the facility can’t be held responsible for a daycare injury.

The courts understand that daycare facilities cannot simply waive their responsibility or liability for your child’s safety. The truth is that daycare facilities know that these waivers usually don’t hold up in a court of law and instead use them as a deterrent for legal action by parents. If you have signed a liability waiver — do not hesitate to call The Henry Law Firm. We will review the waiver with you and discuss your options.

WE’LL HELP YOU UNDERSTAND SETTLEMENT

The Henry Law Firm puts your family first. Our experienced legal professionals understand the traumatic and devastating effects that a child’s injury can have. We’ll go above and beyond to ensure your child receives the best treatment possible and maximize the amount they recover for any pain, suffering, or medical treatment.

We have successfully recovered hundreds of thousands of dollars for children injured at daycare. We will work with your family on settlement options to ensure that money is there for your child when they need it—whether it is next month or ten years down the road. Parents are also entitled to recover directly from a negligent daycare for their lost time from work and their stress and anxiety having to care for an injured child.

Contact us immediately if your child has suffered an injury at a daycare facility. Gather as much evidence as possible, including copies of any paperwork you filled out with the facility, security footage, or any other supplementary evidence available. Retaining any photographs at the scene, follow-up photos, injury photos, and tracking your child’s healing process can all benefit your case.

We’ll help you calculate damages that the daycare is liable for, and it may be necessary to seek both compensatory and punitive damages in your lawsuit. Speaking with an experienced child daycare negligence lawyer should be the first step — as there may be a statute of limitations on how long you have to file.

  1. 01We make sure that your child receives the best treatment possible to help with recovery
