PRACTICE AREAS

Any injury to a child is always a tragedy. However, when you are not at fault for the injury in question, or if you did not cause the injury intentionally, a wrongful child injury conviction is just as tragic. If you are convicted of injuring a child, your reputation, career and personal life will all suffer. You may also face legal penalties, such as fines and/or time in jail. To avoid such a conviction, you need to hire the right attorney.
