Day Care Negligence: Lack of Supervision

Settlement: $ 1,000,000

Our client’s young son had just recently begun attending day care. Prior to then he had displayed difficulties related to safety awareness. The ownership and staff at the day care were told about this so that they could be alert to his needs. The staff failed to monitor the child on the playground, which lead to a fall off an 8 foot slide. The child sustained head trauma that required him to be airlifted to a neighborhood hospital. He was diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury. The claim resolved for policy limits without the need for trial. The net recovery was used to purchase annuities that will provide a stream of funding over the child’s entire lifetime.
