Do you remember the innocence of childhood? The games played with friends, lazy summer afternoons at the beach, or perhaps baking cookies with a favorite grandparent? Most of us remember our childhood with fondness and a little nostalgia. Unfortunately, the earliest memories for a growing number of children will be of unimaginable pain and suffering. The threats to a happy and safe childhood are everywhere: shaken baby syndrome, car accidents, pedestrian accidents and bike accidents caused by careless drivers not looking for children, burns caused by unsafe products, inattentive adults, caretakers and negligent and abusive adults, dog bites and animal attacks, house fires, hot water heaters set too high, unfenced pools, windows without guards, unsafe toys, unsafe child products, including car seat failures, and unlocked guns and household chemicals to name a few. Children also rely on their parents and caretakers to have their best interest at heart, but unfortunately children are sometimes the victims of an overstressed, impatient, or careless adult. Sadly, babies and toddlers are the youngest victims, suffering everything from neglect and shaken baby syndrome to other forms of abuse, both physical and sexual, and accidental trauma and negligence resulting in cerebral palsy, brain injury and brain damage.

The National Child Abuse and Neglect Data System estimates that approximately 3,000,000 cases of child abuse or neglect are reported in the United States each year, which result in nearly 2,000 deaths. In the State of California alone, the most recent data from the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) estimates that cases of abuse involving over 713,000 children were referred for investigation. Children who are victims of neglect or abuse suffer not only the physical manifestation of this abuse, but must also endure painful emotional and psychological suffering. The physical, emotional, and psychological consequences of abuse and neglect can take years to overcome. Sadly, these children may also grow up to continue the cycle of violence. In cases where a baby or child has lost his or her life due to abuse or neglect, the results are unimaginably tragic.

You may be asking yourself how you can help a child who has been left to face the consequences of an inconceivable wrongdoing. You may want to seek justice for the child, and ensure that they receive coverage for their long-term medical and psychological needs, in addition to any compensation for pain and suffering. This is where The Keane Law Firm, located in San Francisco California, can help. The Keane Law Firm accepts only a select number of cases, which allows them to provide personalized attention and allocate significant resources to the children and families in each case.
