Playgrounds are supposed to be one of the safest places for a child to play. When broken equipment, poor maintenance, inadequate supervision, or unsafe surfacing causes a serious injury, the people responsible for maintaining that playground can and should be held accountable. A playground accident lawyer at The Killino Firm helps families investigate what really happened, identify every responsible party, and pursue the compensation their child deserves.
Whether the injury happened at a public park, a school, or a private daycare, our attorneys know how to build a strong playground injury case. Contact us today for a free consultation.

If your child was seriously injured on an unsafe playground, contact The Killino Firm today for a free consultation with a playground accident lawyer who will investigate what happened and fight for the compensation your family deserves.

Case value depends on the severity of the injury, the medical treatment required, and the strength of the evidence showing negligence. A free consultation can help you understand what your case may be worth.
We contacted this firm when our son suffered a birth injury. They listened to our potential case and took us on. They helped us all the way through the process, always took my calls and questions. Killino is very passionate about his work and it felt like he was upset for our son like he was his own child. The paralegal, Kayla, was always on top of things and helpful. The whole firm that we worked with really did their best for us and now we have what we need to care for our son. We couldn’t be more grateful.
