Amusement Park Accidents – What You Need to Know!

On Mother’s Day, a small child, his grandmother and aunt were injured on a ride at Storybook Land in New Jersey. In March of this year, I posted an article to this blog about a child who was killed when a train overturned at Cleveland Park in Spartanburg, South Carolina. News Channel 7 has reported that that the inspector who last inspected this miniature train failed to report that the train had a dead battery on the day he was there to inspect it. Because of the problem with the battery, the speed was not able to be checked and the inspector did not test drive the train. This person had been an inspector for over 20 years. He has since been fired from his position. Unfortunately, this is too late for the victims of these two separate accidents. Nothing can fully compensate the innocent victims of this type of accident. However, it is important to remember that the parents of this young boy who died had to arrange a funeral. Injured victims will have to deal with huge medical bills. This is a time for solid, focused thinking. If you have been the victim of an accident such as this, you need to consult with someone who is experienced with this type of occurrence and can protect your rights. You need to speak with a personal injury lawyer with an extensive background in amusement park, theme park and playground accidents. For instance, did you know that there are special “rules” when a public entity is concerned? Most states require written notice to the municipality or other government office responsible who own and run these parks. Often, the time limit for notifying these entities is far shorter than if an individual or business owned and operated the facility. I have been a personal injury lawyer for over thirty years. During that time, I have had the opportunity to meet and work with some of the best attorneys in this country. I have seen, first hand, the results of their diligent efforts on behalf of our clients.
