Chad Barr Law Can Help

Theme parks are great places to spend time with your family and friends. The rides and shows are a great way to pass the time and can make you feel like you’re a kid again.

The fun and great memories you can make when enjoying time at an amusement park can last forever. Unfortunately, some souvenirs you might take home from your trip aren’t ones you’ll want to remember. If you were in an accident while at a theme park you might be going home with more than just a new t-shirt.

Some common injuries from accidents that happen at theme parks are broken bones. Usually, these types of injuries are due to slips, falls, and trips because of unaddressed, unsafe conditions or unmarked hazards.

Regardless of how the bone was broken, if it occurred because of an oversight on the part of the park operator they should be responsible for covering your medical bills and any other expenses you have. Theme parks train their employees to spot dangerous situations and they have many rules and regulations around addressing them, but hazardous conditions still occur.

What to do if you Break a Bone at a Florida Theme Park:

If you break a bone while visiting a theme park in Florida there are several things you need to do to ensure you have the best outcome. The park will follow their policies and procedures and ensure their best interest, but it’s important to remember that they are responsible to the owners of the park above all other interests.

Here is what you should do if you or someone in your party breaks a bone at a Florida Theme Park:

  1. Alert an employee immediately and let them know that medical assistance is needed.
  2. Identify any witnesses and gather their contact information.
  3. Take pictures of the area, the ride, the hazardous obstacle, any spilled food or drink, and anything else that may have led to the injury.
  4. Call Chad Barr Law at 407-599-9036
  5. Seek medical treatment and follow your doctor’s order and recommendations on healing.

 

Compensation May Be Available if You Were Broke a Bone at a Florida Theme Park

If theme park employees fail to follow the protocols in place to keep the park safe, or if park management isn’t properly training and following up to ensure those procedures are kept, then they may be found responsible for the injuries caused by their negligence. If that happens, they would also be responsible for the cost of any recovery or expenses incurred due to the injuries.

Those costs typically include:

  • Lost Wages
  • Physical Therapy Costs
  • Medical Expenses
  • Additional Travel Expenses

What to do if You’re Injured at a Florida Amusement Park

If you’re injured while attending one of Florida’s Amusement Parks, then you need to make sure you’re health is your top priority. For your health and well-being, you need to make sure to you:

  • Seek immediate medical attention.
  • Follow your physicians’ orders and recommendations including any and all follow-up appointments.
  • Document your treatment and keep copies of all bills and medical records.
  • Contact an experienced and qualified Amusement Park Injury Lawyer.

It may take several days and even weeks for the symptoms of some theme park injuries to appear. That is why it is important to seek out medical attention immediately to document the injury and your medical treatment even if you are not immediately experiencing pain or other warnings signs.

Reasons to Hire an Experienced Florida Amusement Park Lawyer

When an Amusement Park is responsible for an injury to one of their guests, they will ask their insurance company to handle the claim. To protect the park’s interest and its reputation they will typically try to shift the blame to the injured person. Rarely will they accept responsibility for what happened.

While their goal will be to dismiss the injury and any legal proceedings that follow, the job of your Amusement Park Injury Attorney is to make sure the park is held responsible for its actions. That’s why it is important to contact and hire a lawyer experienced in dealing with the theme parks, their insurance companies, and the lawyers they hire.
