In Need of a Daycare and Childcare Negligence Attorney in Simpsonville, SC?
At the David W. Martin Law Group, our Simpsonville childcare negligence lawyers know there is not a single parent in South Carolina who would ever anticipate their daycare provider intentionally harming their child while he or she is in their care. They would also never imagine that the careless, negligent actions of a child caregiver anywhere in the state would lead to their kid being injured or, worse, losing their life in a licensed daycare facility.
Tragically, it happens more often than anyone in the Palmetto State could imagine.
Nearly 25,000 people call Simpsonville home. These residents account for just over 6,100 families who care for 24% of the population who are under the age of 18.
Of the average 156 babies born every day in South Carolina, according to the Department of Health and Environmental Control, Greenville County had the most births last year, accounting for 6,256 new babies.
When these babies and other small children have parents who work, they must attend some form of daycare or childcare facility before they are old enough to attend Simpsonville Elementary School, Plain Elementary School, or one of the city’s private or religious grade schools.
Our Simpsonville childcare accident, injury, and fatality attorneys know that leaving your kids with anyone other than a trusted family member is the most difficult decision you must make during their early years. If your child has been injured or lost their life while in the care of a professional daycare facility, we want to help you hold them accountable.

How Do Childcare and Daycare Accidents, Injuries, and Fatalities Occur in South Carolina?
The South Carolina Childcare Agency regulates approximately 2,500 licensed, registered, approved, or legally exempt childcare providers throughout the state.
Depending on the number of professionals working in each facility, there may be dozens of children who spend their days there together. When the kids overwhelm the staff, when they are short-staffed, or improperly staffed with inexperienced childcare providers, kids can get hurt.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, the leading causes of unintentional injuries in children include:
- Falls.
- Poisonings.
- Suffocations.
- Drownings.
- Fires.
- Motor vehicle crashes.
Other injuries caused by neglect, abuse, or improper supervision or staff ratios may include:
- Choking.
- Broken bones.
- Allergic reactions.
- Internal injuries.
- Dislocated joints.
- Sexual abuse.
- Burns.
- Traumatic brain injuries.
No matter who watches your children, they deserve to be safe every minute they are in another person or facility’s care. Enduring the unthinkable and having to pursue a South Carolina daycare or childcare facility for your kid’s injuries or the tragic loss of their life will quickly overwhelm anyone. We want to help.
That may include pursuing the South Carolina daycare or childcare facility’s owner or operator, the parent company, staff members, and even property owners who fail to keep the premises safe when leased by a company or organization that is charged with the safety of kids.
