CLAYTON COUNTY, GA — A Clayton County jury has awarded $2 million to the family of a young boy who suffered a serious leg injury while attending an Atlanta daycare.
The child was just 13 months old when he suffered a spiral fracture of his thighbone at Raven’s Learning Haven daycare in January 2023.
Following the injury, the boy’s mother filed a lawsuit against the daycare, accusing the facility of negligence and failing to keep her son safe.
More than three years later, a Clayton County jury sided with the family, awarding them $2 million in damages.
Attorneys representing the family say the injury has had a lasting impact on the boy’s life and development.
The family’s lawyers say they hope the verdict sends a message about the importance of child safety.
