Signed a liability waiver for your child at daycare or the gym? That piece of paper might not mean what you think it does.
In Tennessee, parents cannot legally waive their children’s injury claims without the approval of a judge.
If a facility was negligent—like knowing about a defective condition and failing to repair it—that waiver is not enforceable. Instead of getting blocked by a contract, you can still pursue a premises liability claim based on the actual merits of what happened.

With summer approaching, 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.

--Attorney Christopher Smith

Attorneys for Rodni’s family said the videos spread false claims during a time of intense grief and caused damage to the family’s reputation and emotional distress.

When a school bus or other vehicle crosses the double yellow line and causes a serious wreck, most people assume the story ends there. But in some Tennessee cases, the defense argues that a sudden medical emergency—such as a heart attack or loss of consciousness—played a role. That claim can shift the focus to the driver’s health history, medication use, and prior symptoms, and it often involves detailed medical records and expert testimony. Families in Clarksville, Montgomery County, and throughout Middle Tennessee may not know what to expect when they start hearing about “medical defenses” in what seemed like a straightforward crash. If you are dealing with injuries from a school bus or car accident and have questions about how these defenses might affect your claim, DRS Law Personal Injury Lawyers can review your circumstances and discuss your legal options.

What is loss of consortium, and does it apply to your situation?

After your spouse's serious accident, everything changed. You became the driver, the cook, the nurse, the bookkeeper. You may not realize that Tennessee and Kentucky law has a name for what happened to your marriage — and that you have your own separate claim.

Loss of consortium is a derivative claim that allows the uninjured spouse to seek compensation for the loss of companionship, love, affection, support, and intimacy caused by a catastrophic injury. It falls under non-economic damages and exists alongside — but separate from — your spouse's personal injury case.

When a car accident, truck accident, medical malpractice incident, or any serious injury reduces a marriage to a full-time caregiving arrangement, the personal injury attorneys at DRS Law help both spouses pursue the full compensation they deserve.

We proudly serve families in Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga, Murfreesboro, Franklin, Clarksville, Hendersonville, Gallatin, Mount Juliet, Lebanon, Cookeville, Smyrna, Brentwood, Spring Hill, Columbia, Jackson, Maryville, Cleveland, Collierville, Germantown, Bartlett, and communities throughout Tennessee — plus Louisville, Lexington, Bowling Green, Owensboro, Covington, Florence, Richmond, Georgetown, Elizabethtown, Frankfort, Hopkinsville, Paducah, and communities across Kentucky.
