Children have accidents all the time - it’s part of growing up. Most of these injuries are nobody’s fault, but sometimes children are hurt because the proper safety measures weren’t in place. We’re here for you if your child has been injured in an accident that was the result of someone else’s negligence and could help you make a child injury claim.
Our team of expert children’s accident solicitors understand that, as a parent or guardian, your main priority is the safety of your children. As well as helping you claim compensation for your child’s injury, we’ll help you get the best rehabilitation and support to make sure they make the best possible recovery. Contact us today to start your child's claim.
We’ve helped thousands of parents and guardians with their claims. In the past, we’ve helped parents and guardians claim when their child has been injured:
- At school, college, or nursery (including school trips)
- In a road traffic accident
- In a public place (e.g. supermarkets, shopping centres, parks, and play areas)
- Due to medical negligence.
We can also help when your child has been seriously injured. Our dedicated child serious injury page outlines how we can help with the most serious of injuries.
We can also accept child injury claims on a no win no fee basis. This means you’ll have no upfront cost and won’t have to pay anything if your claim is unsuccessful. We’ll discuss if you’re eligible for a no win no fee agreement when we first meet with you.
