Phoenix School Injury Lawyer

Parents should reasonably expect that their child is safe and protected while at school.  The law protects this expectation, as schools become a child’s guardian during school hours.  As a guardian, schools are bound to protect students from foreseeable harm. Failure to supervise students can leave schools open to liability for injuries that students sustain while on campus.

Students who are not adequately supervised while at school are susceptible to a range of injuries.  It is foreseeable that students without supervision could sustain injuries on the playground, with unsafe equipment, or even from altercations with other students. When school negligence is to blame for a student’s injury, the school should be held responsible. Not only is it fair to compensate a student’s family for injuries that should have been prevented, but taking action against negligent schools will also help to ensure a safer environment for future students.
