Children Deserve Maximum Protection — We Pursue It

Children cannot advocate for themselves. When negligence injures a child — whether at a daycare, on a playground, in a car crash, at a neighbor's pool, or from a defective toy — parents are left navigating medical crises, insurance companies, and legal systems at the worst possible moment.

George Oginni handles child injury cases with a clear focus: securing full compensation that accounts not just for current medical costs, but for a lifetime of impact — developmental delays, educational needs, future medical care, and the loss of childhood itself. These cases require an attorney who understands both the legal complexity and the human weight of what's at stake.

Common Causes of Child Injuries

Car & Pedestrian Accidents
Children struck as pedestrians or injured as passengers — including improper car seat or seatbelt use by a driver.
Swimming Pool Drowning & Near-Drowning
Inadequate fencing, missing drain covers, lack of supervision — pool accidents are a leading cause of child injury in Texas.
Daycare & School Negligence
Inadequate supervision, unsafe facilities, or staff misconduct at the institutions entrusted with your child's safety.
Dog Attacks
Children are the most common victims of serious dog bites. Texas law holds owners accountable for attacks on children.
Defective Toys & Products
Dangerous products designed for children — choking hazards, toxic materials, structural failures in furniture or gear.
Playground Equipment Failures
Defective equipment, improper installation, or inadequate maintenance causing falls or entrapment injuries.

What Damages Can Be Recovered for a Child?

Economic Damages
  • Emergency care and surgery
  • Ongoing pediatric treatment
  • Rehabilitation and therapy
  • Special education needs
  • Future medical care into adulthood
  • Lost future earning capacity
Non-Economic Damages
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent disability
  • Disfigurement and scarring
  • Emotional trauma and PTSD
  • Loss of childhood experiences
  • Parents' loss of consortium
Child injury settlements often require court approval in Texas to ensure the settlement is in the child's best interest. George handles this process and can structure settlements to protect funds until your child reaches adulthood.

Texas Law: Child Injury Cases

Attractive Nuisance Doctrine

Texas recognizes the attractive nuisance doctrine — property owners may be liable for injuries to children who trespass onto property containing a dangerous condition that is likely to attract children (pools, trampolines, construction equipment). Children cannot fully appreciate danger the way adults can, so the law provides them extra protection.

Extended Statute of Limitations for Minors

Under Texas law, the 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims is tolled (paused) until a minor turns 18. However, waiting risks losing critical evidence. Calling George now protects the strongest possible case for your child's future.
