Unfortunately, while water parks offer fun under the sun, they can also be the cause of severe injury and even death. Zanes Law has a Phoenix water park accident attorney on staff ready to take on these negligent parties. 

How Water Park Accidents Happen

Many negligent factors can cause water park accidents, including heavy crowds, inattentive employees, and lack of supervision. Sometimes the rides are not adequately designed or are poorly maintained. The cause of the accident is vital to getting compensation for your injuries. 

Through a Phoenix personal injury lawsuit, you will need to prove your injuries resulted from the park owner’s negligence. Determining the cause of the incident and the negligent party is the hardest part. Some common water park accidents are:

  • Heatstroke
  • Slip and fall
  • Fall from heights
  • Cuts and lacerations
  • Drowning
  • Head trauma
  • Broken bones
  • Diving accidents
  • Poll suction incidents 

Each accident and injury has challenges, and recovery can take time. Some do result in death, especially if there is a delay in medical attention.

Compensation Available for Water Park Accidents

By filing a Phoenix personal injury lawsuit, you can recover compensation for your losses from the water park accident. Examples of water park accident compensation available are:

  • Medical bills
  • Punitive damages
  • Lost wages
  • Future medical treatment
  • Physical therapy 
  • Rehabilitation
  • Mental anguish 
  • Loss of career
  • Pain and suffering 
  • Disability 
  • Hedonic damages

The severity of your water park injuries and the property owner’s insurance policy will heavily impact your claim’s worth. If you suffer a severe injury that makes you unable to work, you will need additional expenses to cover the loss of income. However, your claim can be much lower if you suffer a laceration that heals within a few weeks.

Waterpark Wrongful Death Claims

Water parks offer fun and enjoyment for all ages, but the worst outcome of a water park visit is the death of a loved one. A day of fun should not end in death. Surviving families can file wrongful death claims on behalf of the deceased. 

Compensation will look different than in other cases because life is lost. Wrongful death compensation covers expenses like:

  • Medical bills
  • Funeral and burial costs
  • Punitive damages
  • Loss of future income
  • Loss of future benefits
  • Pain and suffering before the death 
  • Loss of guidance, companionship, and affection 
  • Loss of household services

While a settlement will help you have a solid financial future to compensate for what your loved one provided, it does not replace them. 

When the Victim Is a Child

The age of the deceased will heavily impact your claim. If a child passes away, compensation options will look very different. An unemployed individual may also garner less compensation through these claims. 

You must discuss your options with a Phoenix water park accident attorney.

It’s hard to think that a cute and cuddly dog could cause harm to anyone—but it happens. So, what is the best way to handle a dog bite incident? Be sure to find an attorney who is licensed

This was the 1st time I've used Zanes Law. It was a fantastic experience for having to go through a situation most would rather not. The attorney and staff were always available to answer my questions and explained things clearly and were obviously 100% in my corner. My attorney, Jim, was very genuine and made me immediately comfortable when I came in to speak with him about my case. Every case manager I dealt with was patient and helpful. I would definitely return to Zanes should the time ever come again that I need a personal injury firm.

Zanes Law was a terrific legal experience. I first went to a law firm that only wanted me to go to physical therapy and pad the bill, so they could utilize my insurance policy to its capacity. Once I went to Zanes, they were honest, professional and prompt with calls almost once a week. Sometimes I got a call just because we did not have contact for close to two weeks. Some calls were to just ask how I was doing. I also received more money than originally discussed. Great job Zanes Law!!!!! If need be I will use their services again. THANKS

When There Is a Liability Waiver Present

Water and theme parks know there is some risk to guests, which is why they have waivers. While you must sign these waivers to enter the premises, that does not mean you are exempt from filing a claim. If the property owner is negligent, you can file an injury claim. 

Signing a waiver does make the legal process more challenging, but a suit is still possible. 

How Liability Works

Water parks have rides, pools, and other attractions. While the water park owner oversees all of these attractions, that does not mean they are the only party who is responsible when an accident occurs. Since you can suffer an injury in various areas of the park, different parties can be accountable for your damages and, therefore, must provide you with compensation. 

Many times, the park owner is responsible, along with another party. Other parties that can also be liable are ride manufacturers and designers. You can also name ride operators and security companies in a lawsuit. 

Your water park accident lawyer in Phoenix must investigate the accident and find every responsible party. 

Water Park Owners

Water park owners must adequately train ride operators and others who work on the premises. If they do not, they are negligent and responsible for injuries resulting from injuries. Inadequate training can lead to unnecessary injury. 

If there is a dangerous condition, such as a broken ride or cracked pavement, there must be signs and materials that block the area off. 

Steps Following a Water Park Accident

After an injury, a waterpark representative will contact you to try and settle the issue. Victims take such a quick response as a sign of good faith that the water park cares about their recovery. 

They do not want the water park incident to become public because that will deter other guests from visiting the park. They also want to settle quickly because they do not want to pay more than they need to for an injury claim. 

The truth is the water park representative does not care about your recovery; they only care about the park’s image and saving money; they know that if you go public or file a lawsuit, they will need to take a different approach. Instead of offering you a settlement, they will need to hire a Phoenix water park accident lawyer and fight you. It also means they will need to pay you what your case is worth. 

Call a Water Park Accident Attorney in Phoenix Today

You should stay alert when you enter a water park. It can be a sign of danger if you notice park staff being negligent or inattentive. It is not your full responsibility to avoid an injury because you are not in control of the premises; the water park owner is. 

If you sustain an injury at a Phoenix water park, you will be in shock and need to address your injuries. You should also not accept an initial settlement from the park representative. You must contact a Phoenix water park accident attorney from Zanes Law to secure your financial recovery after such a horrifying incident.
