How the Team at Schiller & Hamilton Will Seek Justice for Your Child’s Injury
Our firm takes every case we handle seriously. However, when a child has suffered an injury because of someone’s negligence, the stakes seem higher. The team at Schiller & Hamilton will lead every step in your child’s injury case, including:
Establishing Liability
Your attorney from Schiller & Hamilton will determine who is liable for your child’s and your own damages. We generally use the standard of negligence to establish liability.
When someone is negligent, they act in an unreasonable manner that may put others at risk. Even if liable parties did not mean your child any harm, their negligence could make them liable for all damages.
Identifying, Documenting, and Calculating Your Child’s Damages
Our team will identify the damages that your child (and you) have suffered because of their injury. We’ll calculate the cost of those damages, and we may also document the damages with:
- Medical records
- Testimony from experts (including mental health professionals)
- Medical bills
- Invoices for any other expenses related to your child’s injuries
As the National Safety Council (NSC) explains, the severity of injuries is one factor that may affect the cost of damages. We will make sure to calculate your damages accurately, as this is the compensation we will seek during settlement discussions.
Preparing for Settlement Negotiations
We will gather all relevant evidence in preparation for settlement negotiations. As we compose your case, we will:
- Visit any location that is relevant to your case
- Interview witnesses whose testimony is relevant to your case
- Secure and organize all relevant evidence
- Tie together all testimony and evidence into a comprehensive case
Your child injury lawyer from Schiller & Hamilton will enter settlement negotiations with the strongest case we can put together.
Completing Settlement Negotiations
Schiller & Hamilton will negotiate with those who owe you compensation for your child’s injuries. These parties are likely to resist paying all the compensation you deserve, but we will diligently pursue our settlement demands.
Completing a Trial, if Necessary
A trial is another option in our firm’s toolbox. If we do not get the settlement that you deserve, we are prepared to go to court.
