Feature by Galveston County Daily NewsGALVESTON, Texas - In a recent feature on their website, the Galveston County Daily News highlighted our firm's efforts in seeking justice for families affected by negligent childcare practices. The story details our work in representing Allison Pedigo, a mother whose 2-year-old daughter experienced a harrowing ordeal at Spell Well Montessori School in Spring, Texas.

What Happened at This Houston-Area Daycare?

The Galveston County Daily News article details that in June 2023, Pedigo received a call from the school notifying her that her daughter had sustained scratches on her face. However, it wasn't until the child’s mother pressed for answers that the full extent of the negligence became apparent. The school admitted that her daughter had been found alone outside the facility, yet crucial details regarding how and when the child wandered off remained unclear.

According to the article, Spell Well Montessori's response to inquiries about the incident only added fuel to Pedigo's distress. The caregivers and school administration provided conflicting accounts of the events, and crucial video footage mysteriously went missing. This blatant attempt to obscure the truth compounded Pedigo's concern, prompting her to take legal action.
