Frequently Asked Questions

Who is responsible when a student is injured at school?

Straight Answers.
From Trial Lawyers.

The Answer

Responsibility depends on how the injury occurred. In some cases, the school district may be responsible. In others, liability may involve a teacher, coach, contractor, transportation company, another student, or even a third-party property owner.

Potentially responsible parties may include:

  • Public or private schools
  • Teachers or school employees
  • Bus companies
  • Outside contractors
  • Property owners
  • Manufacturers of defective equipment

Determining who is legally responsible requires a careful review of the circumstances surrounding the injury. Because school-related injury cases often involve unique legal rules, it's important to investigate promptly.
