When a daycare in Beaumont, Texas, fails to protect your child, resulting in injuries like bruises, fractures, or emotional harm, you may be entitled to compensation. Despite regulations from the Texas Health and Human Services (HHS), negligence can occur, leaving families to bear the consequences. At Bivona Law, our skilled personal injury attorneys help parents understand their compensation options and fight for justice. Discover the types of compensation available and how we can support your family.
Compensation can cover all medical costs related to your child's injury, including emergency room visits, doctor appointments, surgeries, medications, and therapy. For example, treatment for a broken bone or concussion from inadequate supervision at a Beaumont daycare can be costly. Bivona Law gathers medical records to ensure all expenses, present and future, are included in your claim.
2. Pain and Suffering
Your child may receive compensation for physical pain and discomfort caused by injuries like burns or cuts due to unsafe daycare facilities. Texas regulations require hazard-free environments (e.g., 35 sq. ft. per child indoors), and violations can be used to justify these claims. Our attorneys work with medical experts to accurately quantify your child's pain, ensuring fair compensation.
3. Emotional Distress
Emotional trauma, such as fear or anxiety from abuse or neglect at a daycare, can be compensable. For instance, a child harmed due to untrained staff (violating Texas's 24-hour training requirement) may suffer long-term emotional effects. Bivona Law uses therapy records and expert testimony to support claims for emotional distress.
4. Long-Term Care Costs
Serious injuries, like concussions or permanent scarring, may need long-term care, such as physical therapy or therapy for mental health. We ensure the future costs associated with your child's care are taken into account because these costs may last years and take many forms. We hold negligent Beaumont daycares accountable for their actions, as they violate the regulations put in place for all daycare to follow.
5. Punitive Damages
In cases of gross negligence, such as a daycare ignoring Texas background check requirements or allowing dangerous conditions, punitive damages may be awarded to punish the facility and deter future misconduct. Bivona Law investigates HHS reports and daycare records to pursue these damages when applicable.
Detailed Investigation: We collect evidence, such as medical records, HHS violation reports, and witness statements, to prove negligence, including inadequate child-to-caregiver ratios (e.g., 1:4 for infants).
Maximizing Recovery: Our attorneys fight for full compensation, covering medical costs, pain, emotional distress, and future care, ensuring your child's needs are met.
Contingency-Based Fees: You pay nothing upfront; we only get paid if we win your case, making justice accessible for your family.
