Playground Accidents
A children’s playground should be one of the safest places for children to be. Adults responsible for designing, installing, maintaining and supervising playgrounds should know well the fondness that children have for climbing, jumping and swinging. Falls and bumps should be expected and planned for. If your child was seriously injured or killed while on a playground, please understand how seriously we are prepared to advocate on his or her behalf. Jacobs & Jacobs is a family-friendly and family-centered law firm where children and their parents have a special place. Our attorneys are prepared to investigate the facts of your claim and help you pursue compensation.

- Wading pools in small parks should be properly fenced and supervised
- Children on playgrounds should be protected from bullies and sexual predators
- Children on a playground in a daycare, at school or at a summer camp should be watched and protected from potential kidnapping
