Making a car accident claim for a child

After an accident, your first step is to seek medical attention. Not only is it crucially important for your child’s recovery, it’s also important for your claim in terms of gathering evidence including photographs and medical assessments. After seeking medical treatment, contact Shine Lawyers as soon as possible for a thorough assessment of your child's car accident claim.

According to a Department of Transportation study, head injuries were the most common type of injuries suffered by children in car accidents. This category includes concussions, fractures and even traumatic brain injury resulting in long-term cognitive and / or behavioural difficulties.

Other kinds of injuries include injuries from broken glass, chest injuries from collisions with the seat in front of them and emotional and psychological injuries. Even if no physical harm came to the child, they may still need therapy or counselling to be able to move forward with their lives.

Even if your child contributed to the cause the accident, they may still be able to claim for compensation. Contact us today to find out more about your legal rights and entitlements.
