Couple Alleges Abusive Treatment of Daughter at Daycare

Recently, a Long Island couple has filed a notice of claims against several agencies due to the abuse their 21 month old daughter endured at a daycare facility.  The couple has notified the Southampton Town authorities, Suffolk County Child Protective Services, The New York State Office of Children and Family Services, and the New York State Board of Regents.  The complaint alleges that their child had been “yanked out” of a high chair, slammed into a crib, and forcibly fed until she vomited.  Two employees have since been terminated and arrested due to this and other instances of abuse that had gone unaddressed by the facility’s owner.

Many families send their children to daycare facilities while they work.  According to statistics, almost a quarter of children under the age of 5 in the United States attend a daycare program.  While parents expect their children to receive the highest level of care and attention, this is unfortunately not always the case.  In addition to abusive conduct of employees, issues can also arise due to negligent supervision, defective toys, wet floors, disrepair of premises, and unsafe playground equipment, just to name a few.  However, with proper care and supervision, many of these incidents can be avoided.

Before choosing a daycare for your child, it is best to investigate the facility and its staff.  In making a decision regarding whether the daycare is best for your child, consider how many children are in a class, and how many adults supervise the class.  Additionally, question whether the staff is properly qualified in caring for children, and in first aid.  Consider all the safety and health standards of the location and whether they are adhered to, as well as bathroom facilities and access to water.  It is also a good idea to look into the scheduling practices of the daycare, and the policies in place.

However, even if you believe that you have chosen the best possible daycare for your child, incidents can still arise.  If your child has been injured due to the negligence or recklessness of a day care worker, you may be able to receive compensation for your child’s injuries.  Contact an experienced personal injury attorney who can best advise you of your legal rights and remedies.  Call the Law Office of McGuire & Pelaez, P.C. today at (631) 348-1702.

Got me no points when I was stopped apparently going 85 in a 50 by state police. I recommend Mr. McGuire for traffic court for sure.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Chris McGuire, and I can confidently say that he exceeded all expectations. From the moment I set up a consultation with him, I was impressed by his attentiveness and genuine concern for my situation. Chris took the time to listen to all of my concerns and made me feel truly heard, which immediately put me at ease.Throughout our discussions, Chris demonstrated a remarkable level of honesty and transparency. He didn't sugarcoat anything; instead, he provided me with a thorough understanding of all possible outcomes, ensuring that I was well-informed every step of the way.I am incredibly pleased with how everything turned out, and I credit Chris for his dedication and expertise. He exemplifies what every attorney should strive to be – compassionate, knowledgeable, and committed to achieving the best possible outcome for their clients.Without hesitation, I would turn to Chris McGuire and his staff for any future legal needs. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in search of exceptional legal representation. Thank you, Chris, for your outstanding work

They were absolutely great! My insurance didn't go through to the DMV properly so I got pulled over & the cop was a jerk. Wrote me a bunch of unnecessary tickets. I was really struggling financially as well & couldn't miss work over this, so they were so kind to work out an arrangement with me. Very thankful for this group of lawyers

Chris is an excellent lawyer. He is very kind and helpful. He helped me with my son’s traffic case. I would recommend him a million times and more.
For me, the best lawyers in Long Island, New York, have helped me resolve two cases, one related to traffic and the other in real estate. I am very pleased with McGuire Peláez & Bennett PC.

This is the most helpful law office I've ever dealt with. Through the past few years they have handled traffic citations for each of my teen boys, who are otherwise good drivers but unfortunately experienced mishaps. In every case they were responsive and effective and have saved us significant money by working with the court to reduce or eliminate penalties and points. Highly recommended.
Great help. Chris really helped me understand what needed to be done. Thank you guys!

Just Stop It!! Stop searching the Internet for a good lawyer to handle your traffic tickets. M, P & B are the best, so look no further. No, I am not a friggin cheerleader, nor am I being compensated to write a good review. Actually, I did receive something from Mr. Bennett and his team of professionals: Great Results!! I'm just a 50 something years-old Army veteran, and a guy who busts his a$$ every day to make a modest living. I don't have the time or money for mediocre results. When it comes to lawyers, I tend to be a bit skeptical, cynical and judgemental, but M, P & B (Mr. Bennett and his team, in particular) made me a believer. Thanks again, guys and gals at McGuire, Palaez & Bennett 👍👍

I hired Brett and his team to help restore my license which was suspended/revoked for years due to points/accidents. Fairly priced… after trying to take care of it on my own (paying fines and taking classes) I hired Brett, they did everything they could even after I moved from NY to FL, everyone who I spoke to was very helpful ESPECIALLY Daslin, she told me everything I needed to do and calmed me down when I thought I’d never get my license. Well it took some time but I am officially a LICENSED DRIVER! If you are having license problems don’t hesitate to call them, you won’t regret it. They even sent me my $100 money order back that went unused after my license was restored. 5 ⭐️’s

We are very grateful that we got Mr. McGuire to represent us for our case! Mr. McGuire is extremely helpful and professional, he stayed on top of everything for us, and most importantly he helped us to achieve the result that we wanted. Mr. McGuire always open to talk and provided his professional opinions to guide us through the whole process. And his colleague Mr. Sorell was also helpful to support us at the final meeting. I can't say enough good things about Mr. McGuire and his firm, I really appreciated everything they have done for us, thank you very much!
