Can I sue the babysitter for negligence?

David F. Stoddard
Answered by attorney David F. Stoddard (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at The David F. Stoddard Law Firm
One question is whether leaving your child alone to take a shower was negligent. For example, if you ever leave the child alone while you take a shower, then it will be difficult for you to say it is negligent that your sister did this. If your son requires constant supervision so that he can never be left alone, then her actions might be considered negligent. Her actions after the accident are irrelevant, unless her failure to get immediate medical care caused the bills to be higher. Another question in deciding whether to sue is whether your sister has insurance (such as homeowners) to cover this, or if she doesn't, does she have assets to pay a judgment. If she does not own a home it will be difficult to collect any judgment (it is difficult to collect from personal property such as cars, etc.) If she does have homeowners insurance, it might be worthwhile to file a claim. Some homeowners policies pay for medical bills regardless of fault.

How much is an average workman's comp settlement?

Answered by attorney Samuel Eugene Spital
Personal Injury lawyer at Spital Associates
There are no "average" settlements in injury cases. The truth is there are multiple factors that are relevant to the value of an individual case, including but not limited to the following: . Age of the claimant . Time and circumstances of the injury . Whether there are any third parties also liable (besides a claim against the employer), such as another vendor, manufacturer, supplier, contractor, etc. . Whether there were any pre-existing injuries . Nature and extent of the injuries . Record of other claims against the employer . Period of time unable to return to work . Whether only a temporary or permanent injury . The nature of future care, if any . The nature of future loss of employment or retraining required.
