TRAMPOLINE PARKS CAN BE HELD LIABLE FOR INJURIES
If the trampoline park was negligent, and even if you or your child signed a waiver, you may still be able to hold the park liable for those injuries.
A trampoline park can be found guilty of negligence from a variety of issues including poorly maintained equipment, lack of supervision, dangerous problems with the design of the layout or facility, failure to enforce rules, and more.
What about the waiver or release of
liability?
Most
parks require guests to sign waivers in an effort to release their facility from any potential liability or responsibility for injuries or deaths that may occur.
Many people assume that they have no recourse if they or their children become injured at one of these parks, but we have proven otherwise.
While signing a liability release does make it more difficult to hold a park responsible for injuries, it is far from impossible.
Our law firm has successfully settled several
trampoline park accident cases where waivers and liability releases were signed. We've also successfully litigated trampoline injury cases in jury trials with significant settlement amounts.
Trampoline parks are dangerous for a number of factors, all of which contribute to the risk faced by anyone using them, especially children.
Common injuries from trampoline parks include:
- falling
from the trampoline to the ground
- incomplete flips where someone lands on their head or neck
- people colliding together or knocking each other off the trampoline
- landing improperly after a stunt or high jump
- someone landing on another person's arm, leg, head or torso
- landing on the frame, hooks or springs
- bouncing head-first into a wall, frame or object
- double bounce injuries similar to those caused by high-speed collisions
There are currently no federal regulations in place which could set guidelines or make suggestions and recommendations on how to provide the safest
environment for these parks. And while a few states have local regulations, Florida does not.
Suggestions and advice on how to provide the safest environment possible are offered by the International Adventure and Trampoline Park Association, but trampoline parks are not required to join the association or take their advice.
If you signed a waiver before you our your child was injured at a trampoline park, you may still be able to get compensation for injuries.
