When you entrust the care of your child to a daycare center you expect your child will be safe and protected from harm.

With a high success rate both in and out of the courtroom, you can trust our Oregon personal injury lawyers to be the legal advocates you need so your voice can be heard.
In Washington, daycare providers are licensed by DEL (Department of Early Learning). DEL has adopted regulations for licensing requirements. Under Title 170 WAC, daycare facilities must meet a set of standards to maintain licensure. As one example of the regulations, licensed daycare centers must perform background checks on personnel. Unfortunately, violations can occur, putting children at a far higher risk of injury.
In the state of Oregon, a certified child care home can care for up to 16 children, with a square footage requirement, background checks for all prospective employees, and annual training required. For a center-based childcare center, even heavier regulations are imposed, requiring qualified staff, background checks, and annual environmental and fire safety reviews.
“Most cases settle, but each of our cases is prepared as if it’s going to trial. The insurance companies know it and so do the defense lawyers defending them. That’s why we get such great results for our clients.”
If your child has suffered a serious injury while at a daycare center, the liable parties must be identified. If it is a home-based daycare center, the operator of the center may be held liable, along with any individual employee whose actions contributed to the child being injured. If an injury occurred in a daycare center facility, the owners, operators, and individuals responsible will likely be named in a lawsuit filed to seek justice and full compensation.
