It is every parent's nightmare to have a child injured or lost due to the negligence of another.  These tragedies can happen at any time for any number of reasons.  Our court system affords the parents or guardians of a minor to bring a claim or lawsuit on their behalf.  Many of the injuries sustained by a minor occur as a result of:

• Cars and other motor vehicle accidents
• Fireworks
• Playground equipment
• Ingestion of household products such as cosmetics and personal care products, cleaning substances, pain relievers, foreign bodies, and plants
• Household fires
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Swimming-related accidents

At VanPopering Law Offices, we realize the necessity of procuring compensation for injuries sustained by a minor is of the utmost importance.  Often the serious or debilitating injuries will require lifelong care and treatment; unfortunately the treatment comes with exceedingly high healthcare costs to the parents or guardians.  Our goal is to ensure that the present and future costs are considered when pursuing recovery for damages sustained by a minor. 

If you are a parent, guardian or concerned adult related to a minor who has been severely injured, we'd like the opportunity to discuss your concerns.
