How to File an Amusement Park Accident Claim?

Amusement parks such as Disneyland, Magic Mountain, and Knott’s Berry Farm are a favorite form of entertainment for families and young people in California.  Millions of people from all over the country come to California specifically to go to amusement parks.

Amusement park accidents can result in serious injury or death to people visiting or working at amusement parks.  Amusement park accidents usually fall into one of these categories:

• Negligence on the part of the guest.  This can be refusal to follow specific ride safety instructions, or deliberate intent to break park rules.
• The result a guest’s known or unknown health issues.
• Negligence on the part of the park, either by ride operator or maintenance.
• A generic accident (e.g. slipping and falling), that is not a direct result of an action on anybody’s part.

One of the many attractions that draw people to amusement parks is the exciting rides.  While most rides are safe, almost every year, someone is tragically injured or killed while riding an amusement park ride or at a water park.  If you have been a victim of an amusement park accident, the Los Angeles amusement park accident attorneys at Grey Law can help.  Call us today for a free legal case evaluation at (323) 857-9500.

Over 270,000,000 people visit amusement parks each year in the United States.  Accident data for most amusement parks is particularly a well guarded secret.  When lawsuits are filed, many times strict confidential settlements are requested.  The amusement park industry is highly unregulated and there is not a uniform system for reporting injuries; creating a serious danger that parks police their own accidents.  This means that innocent consumers are often left in the dark about which amusement park is safe to visit and which rides are safe for their families.
