- Fireworks
- Playground equipment
- Premises liability
- Ingestion of household products such as medication or cleaning
- substances
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Severe burns
- Medical malpractice
- Swimming-related accidents
- Pediatric lead posioning
- Sexual abuse by a teacher, coach, or clergy member
