School Injury Attorney
Most children spend a significant portion of each day at school or pre-school. During that time, their parents usually have to simply trust that they are being well cared for. Unfortunately, the safety of schoolchildren is not always assured. While the majority of school workers are caring professionals, accidents and abuse do happen in classrooms and schoolyards across the country every day.
At the offices of school injury lawyer Jeffrey Killino, we are alarmed by the statistics about school-related injuries. Every year about 4 million children and adolescents are injured while at school. If your child has been among them, call our offices at 877-875-2927 to learn about the next steps to take.

School injuries can happen in a variety of ways, and for a variety of reasons. In fact, one study found that about 80% of elementary school students saw a nurse for injury treatment in one year. Our school injury attorneys can be of assistance if your child has been suffered from:
Although school shootings have gained a large amount of attention, they are not a significant cause of school injuries. The majority of school injuries are accidental, with leading causes being falls and sports accidents. However, assault is sadly common; about 10% of school injuries requiring hospitalization were intentionally inflicted on the victims.
If your child has been hurt at school due to poor supervision, faulty equipment, faculty abuse, or other forms of legal negligence, a school injury attorney can inform you of your legal rights.
