WHO RECEIVES THE COMPENSATION, ME OR MY CHILD?
When a child is injured, their parents may pursue the claim on their child’s behalf. Therefore, any compensation awarded is for the child’s benefit. However, the parents are the ones that bear the expenses that were caused by the accident. A New York City child injury lawyer can help structure any compensation award to ensure the needs of you and your child are met and that your child gets the compensation they deserve and you are compensated for your losses.
