Sports & Recreation Injuries
We do not often think about the consequences of injuries sustained
while engaged in leisure pursuits. But injuries do occur,
and when they happen, it is important make sure you understand
the liability ramifications and all the legal options available
to you. Injuries could be attributable to factors such
as negligent design, manufacture or maintenance of facilities
and/or equipment, lack of supervision, inadequate instruction,
or failure to warn of risks and hazards.
What You Should Do
Talk to a lawyer as soon as possible after
the injury has been sustained. This is particularly important
if the injury results in a chronic and/or disabling problem,
if there is a possibility of loss of future earning capacity,
or if the injury reduces your quality of life due to pain or
physical restriction. Obtain the names and contact information
of any witnesses, and make observations and obtain photographs
of the accident site – either through us or your own
means, as soon as possible.
Victims are often unaware of their
legal recourse, or they are tempted to settle with the insurance
company too quickly after the injury. However, the full impact of soft tissue
injuries may not be apparent until long after that settlement
and there is usually no way for this to be addressed if you
settle too quickly. Therefore, it is vital to not rush
into anything until you have an in-depth discussion with a
lawyer about all the issues involved. It is important
to make an informed, intelligent decision, and you can only
do that with appropriate legal advice early in the process.
