How to file a playground injury lawsuit.
1
Seek Immediate Medical Care
Get medical attention for your child right away. Document all injuries with photos and keep all medical records.
2
Report the Incident
Report the accident to the playground owner (school, park, HOA). Request a written incident report. Note any equipment involved.
3
Document Everything
Take photos of the equipment, fall zone, and any defects. Measure fall heights. Note if safety surfacing was adequate.
4
Research the Equipment
Identify the equipment manufacturer. Check CPSC recalls. Look for ASTM F1487 compliance issues.
5
Consult Child Injury Attorney
Playground cases may involve multiple defendants (manufacturer, school, installer). An attorney can identify all responsible parties.
