Can I Sue if My Child Was Hurt on a Playground?
Children love playgrounds. Going down slides, climbing faux rock walls, or swinging on the swing set are all favorite things for young children to enjoy. And as parents or adults who care for younger children, we love being able to let our kids run and play and burn off energy in what we assume is a safe environment.
But sometimes playgrounds aren’t as safe as they’re supposed to be. Your child fell because a piece of the playground equipment broke, or they tripped over protruding shrubs that were planted too close to the slide. Your child has suffered an injury due to someone else’s negligence, and you want to hold someone responsible, but who is liable, and can you pursue legal action?
In this blog, we’ll address the question, “Can I sue if my child was hurt on a playground?” and discuss how a Charleston premises liability attorney can advise you of your legal options.
