Accidents and Children

It has been stated that every year approximately two million children make attendances at Accident and Emergency with injuries from accidents that should have been prevented.

Accidental injury kills three in every 100,000 children every year through accidents such as road traffic accidents, slip, trips and falls, accidents in public places or in the care of a professional and accidents that arise whilst the child is at school. Where ever the place and whatever the circumstances everything possible should be done to ensure the safety of a child.

Personal injury to a child can have devastating effects both physically and mentally. Children are a lot more vulnerable than adults, which is why more safety precautions exist to protect children from harm. However if these precautions are overlooked and your child suffers as a result then get in touch withAccident Consultantant today.

Accident Consultant are experts in accident compensation claims and will fight to get you the compensation that your child deserves after an accident that wasn’t their fault. The circumstances surrounding a child’s compensation claim are slightly different than those concerning an adult claim. Within a child’s compensation claim each case is judged on it’s own merit and will be done so by a solicitor who will be able to advise on the understanding that a child held at the time of an accident.

Compensation claims for under 18 year olds must be brought forwards by the child’s parent or other relative, they are then known as the child’s Litigation Friend. Accident Consultantant will work with you and the child concerned to ensure minimum distress to the child whilst proceedings are being undertaken.

Here at Accident Consultantant we have many years of experience in helping people with all types of compensation claims and have helped thousands of people win compensation claims for children who have suffered due to the negligence of another person. We work on a no win no fee basis meaning you keep all of the compensation that you are awarded with any fees, such as your solicitors being paid by the losing party’s insurance company.
