California Roller Coaster Accident Attorney

Roller Coaster Accident Lawyer in California

One of the most common attractions at theme parks and amusement parks in California are the newest, largest, and fastest roller coasters.  While most roller coasters were originally built where the passengers would be in a roller coaster car and would travel on a roller coaster track, newer roller coasters now employ the most modern methods of scaring and thrilling their visitors.  Some roller coasters today enable passengers to be suspended with their legs hanging where they may see the ground below as the roller coaster car is attached to a track above them.

Irrespective of the type of roller coaster you have ridden on, many of them have not been properly tested nor have the roller coaster operators been properly trained in case an emergency arises.  Roller coasters have been determined to be one of the most dangerous rides at amusement parks, where it has been estimated that there are nearly 9,000 emergency room visits resulting from theme park roller coasters each year.

Roller coasters are especially dangerous because both the roller coaster riders and bystanders who are watching the roller coaster are both equally at risk.  Heavy pieces and supporting wires of the roller coasters may break or come loose seriously injuring or killing people in close proximity to the roller coaster.  In most instances of roller coaster accidents, the rides were not properly tested where they could not properly warn the passengers of the potential dangers.  Since the riders could not be warned of potential hazards, the amusement parks are held liable for their negligence in failing to warn of these dangers had they properly tested their roller coasters.

If you or a loved one has been seriously injured on a California roller coaster because of the negligence of one of the theme park staff, you are entitled to receiving compensation for your injuries from the amusement park owners.  Contact us today at 800-715-4489 or complete a free case evaluation, and one of our California Roller Coaster Accident Lawyers will be in touch with you shortly.
