If your child is injured at daycare, you may be wondering what steps you should take to seek justice and protect your family. Our 2. Document the Incident
Accurate documentation is crucial to understand what truly happened to your child. Collect as much information as possible, including:
- A detailed account of how the injury occurred.
- Photos of the injury and the area where it happened.
- Any communication with the daycare about the injury, such as incident reports or emails.
- Witness statements from staff, other parents, or children who saw what happened.
3. Request a Copy of the Daycare’s Incident Report
Daycares are required to document any injuries. Request a copy of the incident report prepared by the daycare staff. While this document might not include all the details, it could reveal inconsistencies or admissions of negligence.
If the daycare refuses to provide the report, your attorney can formally request it during the legal process.
4. Understand Your State’s Daycare Regulations
Daycare centers must comply with state and local regulations regarding child safety, staff training, and supervision. Researching these regulations can help you determine if the daycare violated any rules.
Our team at The Button Law Firm focuses on daycare and child injury cases and understands the complex web of regulations these facilities must follow. We can evaluate whether the daycare failed to meet the state’s minimum standards.
5. File a Formal Complaint
Before taking legal action, it is helpful to file a complaint with the appropriate state agency, such as the Department of Family and Protective Services in Texas. Regulatory agencies can investigate the daycare’s practices and may uncover evidence supporting your claim.
6. Seek Support Throughout the Process
Filing a lawsuit against a daycare can be emotionally taxing. Lean on trusted friends, family, and professionals for support.
Our team at The Button Law Firm understands the challenges families face during these cases and is here to guide you every step of the way.
