Slip-and-fall accidents are common in most establishments, and that’s especially true at theme parks. Despite extra safety precautions around the park, you may be injured. It can happen via an accidental slip on a puddle or a fall down a set of stairs or in innumerable other ways.
If your accident isn’t your fault, you are entitled to receive compensation from the park. If you’ve been injured at Hershey Park, you can file a personal injury claim against them for compensation. This compensation can then go toward paying off your medical bills, making up for lost wages, and giving you financial stability.
A theme park is a happy place, perhaps the last place you would expect to get seriously injured. But it does happen.
Amusement parks should be constantly maintained, and if an employee fails to do their job properly, it could lead to a slip-and-fall accident.
Say, for example, there’s a spill at Hershey Park and an employee fails to clean it up. If you end up slipping on it and being injured, it is the responsibility of Hershey Park to fairly compensate you for all your losses.
This is the theme park’s responsibility because the accident happened due to negligence of its employee. Of course, you will have to prove your case, so if an accident does happen, you should document it as best you can.
You need to be able to prove that the accident happened through no fault of your own if you plan on filing and winning a personal injury claim. While you can hope that park surveillance cameras will be helpful, it isn’t guaranteed that your accident will have been recorded. You can also use statements or testimony from witnesses, but it can be hard to follow up with them if they’re strangers.
Your best bet would be to speak to a personal injury attorney. They have experience dealing with cases like this and know exactly how to handle them.
An attorney will be able to advise you concerning the legal route you should take. After all, it is their area of expertise. They can also deal with the attorneys from Hershey Park’s insurance company and, if necessary because a fair settlement offer isn’t forthcoming, litigate against them on your behalf. This will be an immense help to you.
Fighting to win your personal injury claim isn’t something you should do alone. You don’t have the legal knowledge to understand all the elements of your claim and how to prove them, nor do you have the knowledge and skills necessary to negotiate a settlement effectively.
You can rely on your attorney for support and to stand up for you when you’ve suffered an accident at Hershey Park. If they are successful, you will receive a settlement or award that will cover your medical bills, lost income, and more.
