Phoenix Child Injury Lawyer

When your child has been hurt due to someone else’s carelessness, you are probably out for justice. Call a Phoenix child injury attorney at our firm for help holding those who caused your child harm accountable for what they’ve done.

Children get hurt all the time, but not every injury your child sustains will allow you to bring a claim or lawsuit against someone. The key is that the injury your child suffered was caused by someone else’s wrongful or careless actions. When negligence is the cause of your child’s injury, you could hold someone liable through a civil claim in Phoenix.

Why bother filing a claim? Aren’t accidents just accidents? Your claim could be important for several reasons: It could help to ensure that this type of injury doesn’t happen to others; it could lead to changes in safety laws; it could hold the at-fault party accountable for the harm they’ve caused. Many accidents are preventable. 

Contact a Phoenix child injury lawyer at the Law Offices of Michael Cordova to learn more about filing a claim.
