Playgrounds and parks should be vibrant spaces where children can safely explore their imagination and enjoy themselves. Unfortunately, when play becomes too reckless or when equipment is not properly maintained, these joyful places can turn dangerous. Each year, over 200,000 children are treated in emergency rooms for playground-related injuries, and tragically, about 15 children lose their lives due to incidents involving playground equipment.
If your child has been injured due to negligence or defective playground equipment, you may have grounds for a legal claim. Pursuing a claim can help hold responsible parties accountable and secure compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other related costs. Our team is committed to providing compassionate and effective legal representation to ensure your family’s rights are protected and justice is served.
