Client Sues for Grandson’s Injuries Sustained While at Kenmore Preparatory Academy
Our client’s grandson was six years old when he sustained injuries while playing in the school gym at Kenmore Preparatory Academy, located in Toledo, Ohio. While the defendant was supposed to be supervising, our client was lying flat on a scooter and pushing it with his hands when he collided with a pedal of a bicycle that another student was operating. This caused our client’s grandson to suffer a large gash to his forehead, which bled profusely. Following the accident, the child’s guardian was alerted of his injuries and was told he needed to be taken to the emergency room for stitches.
Our client’s grandson suffered serious injuries and unnecessary harm due to the defendant’s negligent supervision. At Charles E. Boyk Law Offices, our experienced attorneys are seeking compensation on behalf of our client.
Assessing Our Client’s Damages
The defendant, who was supposed to be responsible for supervising the students, had a duty to watch over them with caution to keep them safe. Additionally, Kenmore Preparatory Academy is responsible for the actions of its employees. Due to the negligence of Kenmore Preparatory Academy and its employee, our client’s grandson sustained nine stitches on his forehead, a concussion, and psychological injuries. The child’s guardian also suffered great pain, suffering, and emotional distress, on top of paying for medical care costs out-of-pocket.
The plaintiff did not understand why her grandson was not wearing a helmet, to which she was informed that helmets were not required inside the gym. She also states that her grandson’s ADHD has worsened due to the accident, and he is now enrolled in a behavioral issues program. More medical care and costs might be required in the future as the injuries are believed to be permanent.
If Kenmore Preparatory Academy and its employee had shown an appropriate level of supervision, our client’s grandson’s injuries and damages could have been avoided. We hope to receive compensation to cover all of the costs of his current and future pain and suffering.
