Kingwood, TX Personal Injury Lawyer

Kingwood Trucking Accidents

Interstate 59 has multiple crashes every day near Kingwood. Some of these accidents are the fault of an 18-wheeler driver most are serious. Trucking accidents frequently involve severe injury because the big rig can weigh up to 80,000 pounds.

If you have been involved in a commercial vehicle, dealing with the truck accident attorney instead of an insurance carrier is a good step. Most people believe that the insurance carriers will offer them a fair settlement. However, those representing themselves are unaware of your case’s actual value and the negotiation tactics that the insurance carriers use.

Getting an experienced truck accident lawyer on your side will provide the best opportunity to maximize your compensation.

Daycare Neglect

Every day tens of thousands of Texas parents entrust their child’s care to daycare providers, either at a daycare center or private daycare based out of the provider’s home. Unfortunately, sometimes that trust is misplaced, resulting in a child who becomes a victim of daycare abuse – either physical, emotional, or sexual abuse or suffers a daycare injury due to neglect.

If you believe your child has been abused or injured by his or her daycare provider, pick up the phone and call the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services at 1-800-252-5400 to report the abuse immediately. Then call the Houston daycare negligence attorneys at Baumgartner Law Firm.

Standards for Texas Daycare Centers

Texas law imposes minimum standards on the operation of all child care centers. Part of those standards requires that children in daycare centers are supervised at all times. This means that each child’s assigned caregiver is accountable for her care, which includes:

• Responsibility for ongoing activities;
• Maintaining appropriate visual and auditory awareness;
• Maintaining physical proximity;
• Knowledge of each child’s activity requirements and specific needs; and
• Intervening when necessary to ensure the child’s safety.

The amount of supervision required for each child depends upon the child’s age, abilities, the layout of the daycare center, and neighborhood characteristics.

Anybody who has children knows that accidents happen. Children fall, get into things they shouldn’t, and sometimes hit and bite – and it all seems to happen the second you look the other way.

But sometimes, accidents and injuries occur because of the daycare provider’s negligence and failure to adhere to the minimum safety standards imposed by law. They were understaffed, did not adequately maintain play equipment, did not keep dangerous chemicals out of the children’s reach, or failed to properly screen employees to keep dangerous sex offenders away from your child.

In cases where the daycare provider’s negligence resulted in injury or death to your child, you may be entitled to damages. Though it cannot erase the damage done to your child, it can help provide peace of mind and ensure that you have the financial means to pay for any future medical or therapy costs that may be necessary due to the injury or abuse.
