Young people experience a higher rate of injuries than adults. To recover compensation for their injuries, those under the age of 18 generally must have an adult, parent or guardian file a lawsuit on their behalf.
Some types of injuries are more likely to involve minors:
Unfortunately, some childhood accidents result in serious disability and the need for long-term care. Providing long-term care can be extraordinarily expensive. Filing a personal injury lawsuit on behalf of the minor is one way to address some of these costs.
But cases involving compensation for minors require the help of an attorney. The Las Vegas child injury attorneys at Day & Nance understand you as a parent or guardian want only what’s best for your child.
