With summer in full swing, many families are visiting amusement parks and water parks. These attractions are designed to be fun and exciting, but accidents do happen. When injuries occur, it is important to understand your legal rights.

Visitors may accept certain risks when riding attractions or participating in water activities. However, park operators, property owners, equipment manufacturers, and staff members still have legal responsibilities to maintain reasonably safe conditions. When those responsibilities are ignored, injuries may create legal liability.

Swipe for a brief overview of common injuries related to amusement and water parks, liability, and liability waivers.

If you or someone you love has been injured in an amusement or water park this summer and is not sure what to do next, know that our team is always here as a resource. Give us a call, and we can find a time to connect.

Regardless of whether you are attending a fireworks show or planning to put on a small display of your own, it is important to remember that fireworks can cause serious injuries if not used with caution. A couple of common types of fireworks-related injuries include:

🔹 Burn injuries account for 37% of fireworks injuries and often affect hands, arms, and exposed skin. Even sparklers burn at extremely high temperatures and can cause serious burns.

🔹 Eye injuries can involve permanent vision impairment when safe viewing distances are not maintained.

🔹 Lacerations, hearing loss, and respiratory irritation can occur when devices malfunction, explode unpredictably, or produce excessive smoke or noise exposure.

🔹 More severe injuries from fireworks typically involve aerial shells or mortars from fireworks and may lead to long-term disability.

While being aware of these injuries is key to preventing them, it cannot prevent them outright. Having dedicated legal support is key in the event of an injury.

Reach out if you have questions about legal next steps after an incident. We are always here to help.
