Our Daughter Fell at Daycare in Brooklyn and Cut Her Eye on a Broken Plastic Bin.
Question:
The bin was cracked and broken prior to her falling on it. She received a cut just above her eye that required a trip to the ER and glue to close the wound. We just received the bill totaling $1160.00. Are we within our rights to ask the daycare to pay this bill?
Answer:
You are certainly within your rights to ask the day care center to pay the medical bill. There might even be a claim worthwhile pursuing for this injury and the resulting scar, if there is one, but that would depend upon the facts regarding what caused your daughter to fall.
