Attorneys for the ChildrenChildren are vulnerable. It is the responsibility of adults in our society to create a safe environment and see that children get the best of care. If you bring your child to our Los Angeles personal injury law firm looking for help, our first concern is for your child's welfare. At Michels & Watkins we are committed to uncovering the truth. When investigating the circumstances leading to a child's injury, our medical team will often suggest at our firm's expense, to send the child to a top specialist for an evaluation. We may or may not find you have a legal claim. If you do, you may hire our lawyers or go to another firm for legal representation. You will have all medical reports and a clear explanation of what happened. If your child was injured as a result of another's negligence, you deserve to know what happened. It is as simple as that. Our attorneys, when investigating a child injury, work with medical experts and institutions that perform exams far more detailed than you would ordinarily receive from your own health care provider. Our concern for our clients is not limited to legal matters. In one case, our examining doctor and lawyer, on the basis of that initial examination, arranged to have a child immediately admitted to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Medical Center to receive care. Birth injuries, child sexual abuse, school accidentsThe largest area of our practice is representation of families where mothers or children have been injured as a result of preventable birth injuries. We call ourselves "attorneys for the children." We handle child injury cases where children have been injured, emotionally or physically, as a result of car or bicycle accidents, sexual assault, and a broad range of other incidents, including those involving the following circumstances:
Calculating the cost of a catastrophic or fatal child injuryIt is extremely important to work with a lawyer with experience in similar cases in order to see that you recover the compensation your child will need to receive high quality medical care and live with dignity following a serious injury.
