Many millions of dollars are expended each year in legal expenses and compensation as a result of accidents and incidents on school property and other events that result in bodily harm. Despite efforts of educational leaders to make student and employee safety a priority, an increasing number of accidents during education-related activities and a growing number acts of violence against students and staff occur. Examples include:
- Serious physical attacks
- Sexual abuse
- Machinery failure
- Slips, trips, falls and other incidents on school property or
- on the way to or from school
- while attending a school sponsored event
- on school buses or other school vehicles
- Absent or inappropriate supervision of students

"Child Custody Solutions® by SchoolMatch® has been most helpful in evaluating the school systems
involved so that we may offer testimony showing which system offers
the best advantage to the child."
-- Monroe L. Inker, Esq.
American Journal of Family Law
" We felt you provided excellent testimony and were a key factor in our convincing the jury that the defendant school system was negligent. The case was quite unusual because it went to the Court of Appeals, the State Supreme Court and back down to the trial court. You directed our attention to many of the factors that were used in obtaining a verdict on behalf of our client. Your willingness to visit the scene with me helped us in reconstructing what exactly happened in our case"
