Lawsuit Filed Against Unlicensed After School Program Following Child's Injury

As home to Cameron Y. Brock, the most respected personal injury attorneys in Los Angeles, we are always on the look out for noteworthy stories related to personal injury law at the Law Offices of Burg & Brock. Unfortunately, sometimes these cases make our blood boil.

That was certainly the case when reading about an event in San Diego and reported by ABC 10 News, in which a six-year-old boy suffered serious injuries while unsupervised in an after school program.

The after school program utilized rented space from the Standley Park and Recreation Center in University City. Witnesses say that 6-year-old Rowan Munteanu slipped from the top of the slide and fell to the ground while no counselor was there to supervise. Once Rowan's mother, Ali Koppel, arrived, she says she saw golf ball-sized swelling on Rowan's wrists, but was told by a counselor: "Take him home, give him Tylenol. He'll be fine."

Community care licensing policies state that children ages 6-12 must be supervised at all times. In this case, not only was there no staff supervision on duty, but in the following lawsuit, it was revealed the facility has been operating without a license for six years. 

It is cases like this that make personal injury attorney Cameron Y. Brock proud to fight for the rights of victims in cases of personal injury involving negligence. There is never an excuse for a company, organization or individual to avoid responsibility for the repercussions under the law of their own negligence. Particularly when children are involved, we're thankful for Cameron Y. Brock, and our entire team of first-rate legal professionals at the Law Offices of Cameron Brock. In this case, the facility has already been shut down, and fortunately, it appears as if the guilty parties will be held accountable.
