Helping Children Recover From Serious Injuries
An injury caused by a dangerous or defective toy can impact your child for years to come or even a lifetime, regardless of his or her age. A child psychologist will tell you that such an experience may adversely influence a child’s behavior and his or her association with a variety of products and circumstances.
Our team has recovered more than $200 million for clients with injury and damage claims throughout California. With main offices in Oakland and Los Angeles, we are available to discuss your case in detail today.
Your Case Also Protects Other Children
We are focused on child safety, and we take a client-centered approach. The best strategy for your case is a clear, customized strategy that is developed through collaboration with experts in the fields of medicine, psychology, toxicology, manufacturing and others as necessary.
Pursuing financial compensation against a negligent toy company can influence that company to clean up its act and be more responsible about preventing injuries to other children in the future. Financial compensation may not give you back the time lost or remedy all the long-term impacts your child and family may experience, but it can help you cope with the road ahead and cover expenses along the path to recovery.
Our law firm handles a variety of cases, and we are prepared to help you seek maximum compensation involving:
- Toys coated with lead-based paint (lead poisoning)
- Splinters
- Small objects (choking hazards)
- Magnets
- Sharp edges
- Cords and ropes (strangulation)
- Toy guns (Airsoft, BB guns and others)
Children are inclined to put almost anything in their mouths and make creative use of objects that adults and toy manufacturers may not consider. Swallowing dangerous chemicals, ingesting a small magnet or any other serious injury can cause several possible injuries, including brain damage, blindness, stunted growth, learning disabilities, digestive problems and more.
It is critical to consult with an experienced attorney as soon as possible to understand your legal rights and options.
