Children's accidents

We seek compensation on behalf of injured adults and children. If a Claimant is under 18 years of age, then slightly different rules apply and the Court must approve any settlement. We are experienced in dealing with such cases and will be happy to advise you about the special rules that apply in these cases.

  • We acted for a schoolgirl who was pushed by a fellow pupil into the sanding machine she was operating during a manufacturing class. She suffered a significant injury to the tip of her finger which required plastic surgery and skin grafting. We negotiated a settlement of £9,450.
  • We acted for a 4 year old boy who suffered severe injuries to his arm when he was able to open a washing machine during its spin cycle because of a defective lock. He was awarded over £200,000.
  • We have acted for a number of minor car passengers who have been injured in road accidents.
