Tragic Injuries in Schools
Parents place a considerable amount of faith and trust in the educators, administrators, and school district employees who oversee the daily routines of students. Unfortunately, this trust is not always deserved. When school district employees fail to live up to their responsibilities, tragedies that can alter the course of a family’s life often result.
There is no question that this may be the most difficult challenge you have ever had to face. We can help you understand your legal rights and obtain the compensation that you are due for both tangible and intangible damages.

Sources of School Danger
Potential sources of danger which may lead to a child’s wrongful death include:
- Negligent hiring
- Lack of supervision
- School bus accidents
- Sports injuries
- Acts of violence
- Negligent maintenance of facilities
Though the fundamental purpose of public and private schools has remained largely unchanged, the variety of means through which children are educated has expanded dramatically. Unfortunately, as an unintended side effect, this has increased the potential for tragedy in some ways.
As students engage in a broader range of activities and interact with a wider spectrum of adults, they are also taking additional risks. If your child has been harmed by a school administrator’s failure to perform his or her duties, a dedicated and compassionate Pennsylvania wrongful death attorney can help you protect your rights.
