What is Child Care Negligence?

Child care negligence occurs when a caretaker of a child fails to provide them with a reasonably safe environment. In some cases, this negligence occurs when a caretaker fails to take the necessary precautions to prevent a child from being injured or harmed. In other cases, child care negligence occurs when a caretaker does something that directly causes harm to a child.

Examples of child care negligence include:

• Failure to properly supervise a child
• Allowing a child to play with dangerous toys or objects
• Allowing a child to play in a dangerous area
• Allowing a child to be abused by another child or adult
• Providing inadequate food, water, or medical care
• Providing insufficient supervision or security
• Failing to properly disinfect or clean a child care facility
• Failing to fix a broken or dangerous piece of equipment

If any of these situations have happened to your child, you may have a valid child care negligence claim. Our Bronx attorneys can help you understand your legal options and fight for the compensation you deserve.

Who is Liable in a Child Care Negligence Case?

In many child care negligence cases, the liable party is a daycare center or preschool. However, daycare centers and preschools are typically owned and operated by private individuals or corporations. As a result, you may need to file a claim against multiple parties to obtain the compensation you deserve.

Potentially liable parties in a child care negligence case may include:

• Daycare center or preschool
• Daycare center or preschool owner
• Daycare center or preschool director
• Daycare center or preschool teacher
• Daycare center or preschool employee
• Daycare center or preschool volunteer
• Daycare center or preschool contractor
• Daycare center or preschool architect
• Daycare center or preschool builder
• Daycare center or preschool maintenance worker
• Daycare center or preschool contractor

In some cases, the liable party may be a parent or relative who allowed a child to be in a daycare center, preschool, or other child care facility. In these cases, the parent or relative may be liable for the negligence that occurred. Our attorneys can help you identify the liable parties in your case and build a strong case.

How a Child Care Negligence Lawyer Can Help

Filing a child care negligence claim can be a challenging process. Daycare centers, preschools, and other child care facilities are often large corporations that have a lot to lose. They will do everything they can to deny responsibility for the harm they caused. With the help of our child care negligence lawyers, you can fight back against these corporations and ensure your child receives the compensation they deserve.

Our New York child care negligence lawyers can help you recover compensation for:

• Medical bills
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Physical and emotional trauma
• Punitive damages

In many cases, child care facilities may try to claim that the negligence was caused by a third party. In these cases, the child care facility may argue that the parent or relative who allowed the child to be in their care was negligent. In these cases, the child care facility may try to claim the parent or relative is liable for the damages.

In other cases, the child care facility may argue that the child's own actions or behaviors contributed to the injuries or accidents. They might try to point out instances where the child may have been unruly or disobedient, leading to dangerous situations. However, in such cases, the burden of proof typically lies with the child care facility to demonstrate that they took appropriate precautions and measures to prevent foreseeable harm.

When facing these types of situations, parents or guardians should seek legal counsel to protect their rights and the well-being of their child. An experienced attorney can help navigate the complexities of personal injury law and hold the child care facility accountable for any negligence or misconduct.

At Dansker & Aspromonte Associates LLP, we understand how difficult it can be to cope with a child care negligence claim. We also know that child care facilities are often large corporations with a lot of money at stake. As a result, these corporations will often fight to deny responsibility for the harm caused by their negligence. That is why it is so important to have an experienced child care negligence lawyer on your side.
