HOW A FAMILY WAS CHANGED FOREVER Poor Supervision and Negligence Led to Noah’s Brain Injury

unsupervised, all while Noah was improperly secured. As one of the infants propped themselves up, the chair flipped backward and launched Noah, causing him to land face-first onto the concrete ground. The final negligent act that led to this child’s injury was not following proper safety procedures and notifying Noah’s parents. Because of this, Noah’s injury was left unattended for nearly 18 hours. It wasn’t until his mother bathed him that night that she noticed a bump on her son’s head. When she questioned the staff the next day, they revealed Noah’s nasty fall. Of course, she rushed her son to the emergency room, where, after numerous X-rays and MRIs, medical staff revealed that Noah was suffering from a parietal skull fracture and subarachnoid hemorrhaging. Noah and his family experienced significant distress due to the brain injury.

Noah regressed in his journey toward taking his first steps. Additionally, Noah’s mother feared another fall and was stressed about finding proper childcare. She even felt anxious when leaving him with family members. Finally, with a severe TBI at such a young age, there’s no telling how this will affect Noah’s development and future health. It was clear our team needed to help do what we could to get justice for this family. Fortunately, we were able to do just that. We secured recovery for Noah so that he and his family could focus on moving forward after this horrifying and traumatic injury. We wish only the best for Noah and hope he can continue on a brighter, safer path.

With March being Brain Injury Awareness Month, we wanted to share the story of Noah and how we were able to bring closure to a family after a devastating incident. Due to a daycare’s negligence, their child was left with a grave traumatic brain injury (TBI). Multiple factors were at play when Noah sustained his injury. The first was that the daycare staff left the small child in a bouncy infant chair without proper restraints. Second, neither of the staff members properly monitored the children and allowed two other infants to grab the back of Noah’s chair.

The children were left to lean and bounce on Noah’s chair for several minutes,
