When Children Slip and Fall
When Children Slip and Fall, Our Experienced Attorneys Stand Ready to Fight for Justice
Any property owner in Pennsylvania who can reasonably anticipate that children will be present needs to be alert. They need to be diligent with maintenance and upkeep of areas a child can access.
Unlike adults, children tend to not be aware of the dangers of slipping, tripping and falling down and hurting themselves. While you can take precautions to protect your children, sometimes it's not enough. A negligent property owner or business owner may be responsible for a child's injuries.
How to Obtain Compensation When Your Child Suffers a Slip and Fall Injury
Get in touch with Metzger Wickersham if your child has been injured in a slip and fall. Our slip and fall attorneys have years of experience getting compensation for clients whose children have been injured.
Children are more susceptible than adults to severe injuries because their bodies are smaller and less developed. Some of the hazards a child might encounter might include:
- Stairways without appropriate railings
- Wet floor
- Potholes
- Unbalanced flooring
- Uneven sidewalks
Children may suffer some of the following injuries after a slip and fall:
- Broken bones
- Brain damage
- Scarring or bruises
- Spinal cord injury
- Deep cuts
In some cases, slip and fall injuries may lead to death, which may result in a potential wrongful death lawsuit.
