Did a car accident leave your child with a permanent disability?

As a parent, you’re always thinking about your child’s future. Unfortunately, you know that life doesn’t always go the way that you planned.

If your child gets injured in a car accident and ends up with a permanent disability, what will this mean for their future? What do you need to know?

Car accidents are a significant source of injuries for young children

First of all, you do need to acknowledge that this is a significant risk. Every year, thousands of children get injured and suffer both permanent and temporary disabilities. Many more tragically pass away, to the point that those between the ages of 15 and 29 have no more common cause of death. As much as we often take driving for granted and assume it’s safe, it’s clear that massive risks exist for children and adults alike.

Disabilities take many forms. Perhaps your child suffered a spinal cord injury and a loss of mobility. Will they recover with physical therapy, or are they always going to have limitations that others do not? Maybe your child suffered serious burn injuries that will lead to disfigurement, even after they heal. Will the child be able to get a job, get married, and have the future you always envisioned for them?

Focusing on the future means looking at your child’s needs

At times like these, you do need to focus on their future. How has it changed? What will that change cost? Who was at fault in the accident that led to it? You need to know about all of the options you may have to seek financial compensation to help offset some of these potential issues.

What Our Clients Say

PERSONAL INJURY CLIENT

Sharon Elliott

When I first called their office I was able to speak to a paralegal and an attorney right away. They answered all of my questions. Throughout the process of my case the attorneys were in constant contact with me. I knew every step of the process. The staff and attorneys were very easy to talk to. I was extremely pleased with the outcome. My medical bills were high. They managed to get my doctors to write off a lot of the bills which saved me money. PHL is a great law firm. I highly recommend them to anyone. I promise, you won’t be disappointed.

REAL ESTATE CLIENT

Amber Joye Rosen, Au.D.

I called numerous attorneys, Michael Labbee was not only the only attorney to call me back at all but called me the same day during his personal time. In the consult, he confirmed my rights as a party to this contract, went over all the ramifications the seller would incur by breaking our contract, and went over cost of litigation if that’s the route I needed to take. I felt more empowered at my options. He was not only knowledgeable and to the point, but kind (yet clearly willing to go to bat to people in their place for my rights!).

PERSONAL INJURY CLIENT

Joey Gill

After my accident I contacted Tyler Hayden to get his advice on legal help and he said don’t worry, we can take care of this and that’s exactly what that firm did. From day one I felt comfortable talking to the lawyers and knew they had my best interest. I would 100% recommend Phillips, Hayden, & Labbee to handle your personal injury case. I’m glad I did.
