Nashville Child Injury Lawyer
Fighting for Victims and Their Families Since 1977
When a child is hurt, the resulting case can be particularly sensitive. The impact of a severe injury on a young life can be heart-wrenching − and pursuing compensation for the damage requires a great deal of care. At Kinnard, Clayton & Beveridge, our Nashville child injury attorneys have the necessary experience to handle these tough cases. In fact, we share more than 100 years of combined legal experience.

Types of Child Injury Cases We Handle
Broken bones, scars, and other injuries are seen by some as the risks of being a child. We do not agree. If your child has suffered a serious injury, our dedicated lawyers are here to help. We have experience with cases involving all types of children's injuries, including those involving:
- Burn injuries
- Car accidents
- School bus accidents
- Defective products
- Dangerous drugs
- Swimming pool accidents
- Birth injuries
Unique Characteristics of Children's Injury Cases
Head trauma or traumatic brain injury can be devastating to a child. Although children are surprisingly resilient, brain damage at an early age can lead to permanent disability and the need for expensive rehabilitation and even long-term care. This is why, when pursuing compensation for these serious injuries, we make sure to seek an amount that will take care of the child throughout their life.
We can also work with special counsel to draft trust documents, such as special needs trusts, to make sure eligibility for available government benefits is protected. Our respected attorneys understand the pain and lifelong consequences that can result from a serious child injury. Contact our offices today to discuss your legal options with an experienced and dedicated child injury lawyer in Nashville.
