Michigan city scape in grey
Marko Law Firm

Can I sue a school if my child gets hurt?

Yes, in certain situations, you may have a case. Schools have a legal duty to keep students reasonably safe. When that duty is ignored and a child gets hurt, that is not just an accident, it could be negligence.

For example

  • Lack of supervision on the playground
  • Ignored bullying that escalates into injury
  • Unsafe facilities like broken equipment or wet floors

In Michigan, claims against public schools can be complex because of governmental immunity laws. But there are exceptions. If a school fails to maintain safe premises or acts with gross negligence, you may have a claim.

At Marko Law, we fight hard and we do not back down. If your child was hurt, you deserve answers.
