Child Psychological Injury Lawyer
Children of any age can be very seriously affected by psychological trauma. When a child experiences a particularly upsetting event, such as being diagnosed with a life-threatening illness or witnessing a horrific car wreck, he or she may fall victim to emotional scars that can last a lifetime. When this persistent emotional distress is caused by another party’s negligence, then you as the parent have every right to demand justice from this negligent individual or company.
Child psychological injury lawyer Jeffrey Killino understands the lasting and devastating effects that emotional trauma can have on a child. Call him at 877-875-2927 if your child has been a victim of a needless psychological injury. His experience and qualifications will help you make the strongest case possible against the responsible party.
Sources of Psychological Trauma
Though psychological trauma can obviously result from severe physical pain or terrifying health situations, it does not necessarily need to be caused by direct harm done to the victim. Children may suffer emotional injuries by witnessing particularly terrible injuries or deaths. The potential sources of psychological trauma are widespread:
- Witnessing or being involved in a horrifying car accident
- Suffering assault – rape, abuse, or molestation
- Suffering birth trauma
- Undergoing a particularly humiliating or embarrassing experience
- Being diagnosed with a life-threatening or permanently disabling condition
- Witnessing the death of a close friend or family member
If your child has been exposed to one of these terrible situations, then he or she may suffer lasting psychological injuries. While not all cases warrant a personal injury claim, a great number of them do result from another party’s negligence, and therefore present the basis for a successful case.
