School Injuries Lawyer
While school is one of the safest places for your child to be, many children are also injured while at school or participating in school activities. School injuries can occur at school sports or practice, in the gym, on the playground or even in the hallway. School-sponsored activities away from the campus can also be ripe places for accidents and injuries.
Sadly, although children themselves can act irresponsibly, those charged with their care at school can also be guilty of neglect or irresponsibility. When school faculty or staff are present and could possibly have prevented an accident injury from happening, you may have legal options to pursue compensation through a school injuries lawsuit. Henry County personal injury attorney Darrell T. Farr can advise you about possible courses of action.
Stockbridge, GA School Negligence
Most school systems are protected by laws that make it extremely difficult to bring lawsuits against them. This does not mean you do not have a legal recourse when your child is injured at school. Common scenes of injury accidents for school-aged children include:
- Playgrounds
- Gyms
- Sports fields
- School buses
- School field trips
- School vocational centers
While every school likely works hard to create safe environments for children, acts of negligence, or even deliberate inaction or abuse, can occur. Needed maintenance can go undone, playgrounds can become unsafe, staff can become preoccupied, people can make mistakes and sometimes tempers can flare.
Schools and school systems must be held accountable when injury accidents occur to children that could have been avoided. Stockbridge, GA, personal injury lawyer Darrell T. Farr can provide the needed experience and seasoned legal representation you need when your child suffers an injury at school under suspicious circumstances.
