This area covers serious injuries to a child caused by someone else’s fault, handled within England’s civil courts. It includes claims for compensation to meet long‑term care, rehabilitation and adaptations needed as a result of the injuries, usually brought against those legally responsible. A solicitor acting in this area represents the child (through a Litigation Friend) and pursues a settlement or court judgment to secure funding for ongoing needs. The work is shaped by medical prognosis, future care costs, and the child’s best interests throughout the process.
A solicitor ensures the child’s position is protected in what are often long, complex proceedings, with emphasis on securing appropriate lifelong care and accommodation costs, through the court or settlement. The case typically involves gathering medical records, expert evidence, assessing future care needs, and negotiating damages for past and future loss, with the court or agreement providing for ongoing welfare payments or trusts as appropriate.
