Child Injuries accident and compensation advice

Child accident and injury compensation claim example:

Child accident and injury claim was made when a young child was badly cut by a piece of glass whilst playing in a sandpit. A compensation claim by accident solicitors who acted on behalf of child’s parents obtained £1800. Injuries sustained a minor cut to the child’s index finger.

A child accident and injury claim was made when a 6 year old boy was playing in a sandpit at a private nursery. The injured child was gathering sand to make a sand castle with his hands. There was a sharp piece of glass that was in the sandpit that caused the accident and cut his index finger.

The injured child was in severe pain. His hand was badly cut and he attended the first aider. The child’s parents will called and he attended hospital for the finger to be cleaned and bandaged.

The nursery admitted blame for the accident to the child. There was no explanation how the glass found its way in the sandpit.
The child accident and injury compensation solicitors obtained compensation for £1800 for the accident.

The child accident and injury solicitors acted on a NO WIN NO FEE agreement and recovered all legal costs from other side.  The parents on behalf of the child received 100% compensation and 0% legal costs.

All parents will need to be aware that any child (that is a person under the age of 18 years) must have the amount of the accident compensation approved by the Court. The parent of the child called the “litigation friend” instructs the solicitors on the Child’s behalf to claim the child accident compensation. The Court will invest the child’s compensation until the child attains the age of 18 years.  The child can then request the compensation plus interest.  If the child needs money before the age of 18 years the parents can ask the court for money on account but must explain to the court why.
