School Injury Law: Parental Liability

Ohio’s parental liability statute, R.C. 3109.10, provides “[a]ny person is entitled to maintain an action to recover compensatory damages in a civil action . . . from the parent of a child under the age of eighteen if the child willfully and maliciously assaults the person by a means or force likely to produce great bodily harm.”

Ohio school injury attorney, Scott Kuboff, discusses the parental liability statute and the nature of the claim:
