If the child is ok, there is no future injuries. Children take falls and hit their heads everyday. There was no way for the company to notify the mother if the chair was not "registered" with the company (if they even ask for such registration) for a high chair. Recall notices are usually sent to the media and it is there choice whether or not to run the information in their publication. If Evenflo is offering to pay for the medical bills incurred and to replace the chair, what more do you seek since there is no injury?

Re: Product Liability

You should speak with a lawyer. Some things to remember. Don't sign anything without a lawyer looking at it. You have 4 tears to bring a claim, but sometimes youshould not wait. DO NOT THROW THE DEFECTIVE CHAIR AWAY. The only way to prove that there is anything wrong is if you keep the chair. It is evidence. Don't use it agains, but gosh don't throw it away or alter it in any way whatsoever.
