Sueing the daycare for punitive compensationis a separate thing and might be more time consuming. You need to talk to the lawyer to see what is your chance. In my opinion, slippery floor on a rainy day is no excuse. My friend tells me "Ontario Nursary Act" states that daycare operators should ensure all equipment, playground are safe, and keep children under constant supervision. If it is a rainy day, the teachers should take extra care, keep the floor as dry as possible, remind the children not to run in the hallway, etc.
According to your description, the injury is quite severe. Daycares write reports on accidents. If they ask you to sign it, don't sign anything, don't talk to them about compensation, tell them " I need to talk to my lawyer first". On Monday, frist make sure the surpervisor know this incident, and tell them you are not happy about the way they handled it. Ask for the written report, show it to your lawyer.
As for the lawyer fee, they charge a relatively small fee ($70 or something?) or no fee for the first half hour when they hear you out and see if you have a case. After that, some lawyers charge by time while others take a cut only if you win. The latter might be more suitable for you. I don't have a good lawyer to recommend to you as I have never been through these things myself, I hope someone else here have some legal contacts.
I am appalled by the indifference that particular daycare showed. I hope the your kid and yourself are doing better now. Don't be too upset as you still want to give as much attention as possible to your kid these days.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
