Child Injury and Child Abuse

Childhood should be a time of growing, learning, and the carefree exploration of the unfolding world. For many of us, memories of childhood contain the cool ripple of swimming holes in summer, the rush of sledding down a wintry hill, and the warmth from the love and support of our parents, siblings, and friends.

But for some, childhood can contain a very different and very painful host of memories and associations. Whether affected by a single accident caused by someone else’s negligence or by ongoing instances of abuse or neglect, childhood injuries can cause lasting physical and psychological damage and permanently steal away precious childhood years.

Thomas M. Kiley & Associates does not stand for the mistreatment of children. For over 30 years, the Massachusetts-based law firm has fought for dozens of children who were helpless to fight for their own causes. These children deserve more than simple justice – they also need the financial support to care for the injuries they sustained and to recover from the harm that they have endured.

If a child close to you is suffering, contact us today so that we can assist in recovering both financial compensation and justice, allowing the child to move on with his or her life as best they can. After decades of wining tough cases and securing monetary awards for injured victims, Thomas Kiley is known as the Million Dollar Man. Make sure that the injured child in your life is represented by an experienced, knowledgeable, hard-hitting attorney.

Child injury can be caused through the carelessness of others in a wide range of ways. Cases of childhood injury can involve:

• School bus accidents.
• Negligent supervision, such as day care attendants, teachers, parents, foster parents, or nannies.
• Defective, dangerous, or recalled toys or products.
• Accidents involving park or playground equipment.
• Child or foster child physical abuse, sexual abuse, or neglect.
• Organized sports injuries.
• Lead poisoning from chipped or peeling paint in rented properties.
• Poorly safeguarded properties that lack window screens, pool fences, or locked gun cabinets.
• Automobile, pedestrian, or bicycle accidents.
• Dog bite incidents.

These accidents, which all could have been prevented, can cause lifelong injuries, psychological scars, and continued pain and suffering. Children who have been seriously injured can experience head injuries and brain damage, spinal cord injuries, serious burns, disfigurement, permanent disabilities, and even wrongful death.

According to the Federal Administration for Children & Families, an estimated 906,000 child abuse convictions were made in 2003, and each day four children lose their lives due to abuse and neglect. Millions more young people are injured each year in the United States due to careless supervision, unsafe environments, and defective toys and products. Without your help, your injured child’s suffering might remain silent. Let Thomas Kiley help you with your case and close this painful chapter in your child’s life.
