Common Causes of Accidents Involving Minors

Children are vulnerable in many settings. Frequent causes include:

Car, Truck, or Pedestrian accidents
Bicycle or Recreational Vehicle crashes
Defective products (toys, car seats, playground equipment)
Dog Bites or Animal Attacks
Slip and Fall incidents on unsafe premises
Daycare or School negligence (lack of supervision, unsafe facilities)
Medical Malpractice or birth injuries
Sports or Playground accidents

Negligence in any of these can lead to serious harm.

Common Injuries to Minors

Child injuries may include:

Traumatic brain injuries or concussions
Broken bones and fractures
Spinal cord damage
Burns, scarring, or disfigurement
Internal injuries
Emotional trauma or PTSD
Long-term developmental impacts

Minors often require ongoing treatment, therapy, or special education.

Laws for Accidents Involving Minors in Minnesota & Wisconsin

Both states provide protections for Injured Children:

Tolling of Statute of Limitations: The clock often doesn’t start until the child turns 18 (Minnesota: Generally 6 years total but tolled for minors; Wisconsin: 3 years, tolled until age 18 + extensions).
Claims can cover medical expenses, pain and suffering, future care, and lost earning potential.
Parents/guardians typically file on behalf of the minor.
Special rules apply for schools, government entities, or recreational immunity.
Both Minnesota and Wisconsin follow the rule of modified comparative negligence. This means you can still recover compensation as long as you are less than 51% at fault, though your award will be reduced proportionally to your share of responsibility. Many victims worry that they might be partially at fault and hesitate to pursue a claim – but you do not need to determine negligence on your own.

Our Experienced Attorneys will thoroughly investigate your case, gather evidence, and accurately assess fault. Even if you believe you may share some responsibility, it is worth contacting us for a free consultation. We will honestly evaluate your situation and fight for the maximum recovery you deserve.
