Tragically, child head injuries are very common, accounting for approximately one hundred thousand hospitalizations annually. Among children ages 14 and younger, TBI accounts for an estimated 2,685 deaths, 37,000 hospitalizations and 435,000 emergency room visits, according to the American Association of Neurological Surgeons. Most TBI child injuries arise from motor vehicle accidents, bicycle accidents, sporting injuries, and child abuse and falls. And some aspects of brain injury are unique to children.
Civil Law is law that is concerned with the rights of individuals to seek civil remedies in the courts for injuries caused to them by another. This is distinguished from criminal law, which involves actions brought by the state or federal government rather than by individuals and which are intended to punish and prevent harms to society as a whole.
DUI/DWI
Children are injured and accidentally killed in a multitude of tragic ways. The Killino Firm prosecutes these causes, so as to prevent tragedy from striking again. For infants and toddlers, drownings, chokings, suffocations, and poisonings are leading causes of injury and fatality. From there, injuries at daycares, schools, playgrounds, and amusement parks rise. Motor vehicle accidents of all sorts, from school bus and bicycle accidents to truck accidents and drunk driving car accidents, continue as leading causes of injury and death well into the teenage years. Whether it is a dangerous toy, defective car seat, or medical error during labor and delivery causing Cerebral Palsy, the Killino Firm achieves maximum possible recoveries.
Wrongful Death
At The Killino Firm we know defective products. We have handled national defective products cases; from a national Chinese tire recall and a class action against Mattel to a wrongful death and survival action against Tyco Healthcare.
Traffic Violations
The Killino Firm also excels at maximizing recoveries for truck accident victims and families. Speeding, drug use, fatigue, and equipment failure are among the leading causes of heavy truck crashes and fatalities. The Killino Firm utilizes its resources (war chest) and expertise to beat indigent truck insurance companies who fight these cases. Sometimes drivers are so unfit, that the Motor Carrier should never have put them behind the wheel. The Killino Firm has literally put these types of Motor Carriers out of business and forced them into bankruptcy. The Killino Firm takes on Motor Carriers and their insurance companies throughout the country and makes them pay.
