All Florida businesses, including theme parks, have a duty to keep their premises safe from hazards that could leave visitors injured. Whether these are hazards they have created or that others have left behind, the owners have a duty to police their premises to make sure that they are safe and hazard-free.

Every theme park and business in Florida is required to maintain a safe environment. When they don’t, people trip and fall or suffer another kind of mishap, and they may have cause for a premises liability lawsuit. At Cullen & Hemphill, PLC, we handle these kinds of cases.

Typical Theme Park Injury Accidents

Central Florida is the theme park Mecca of the world, and we have seen a lot of different kinds of accidents. Just because a ride—whether it is a water slide or a mechanical ride at one of the theme parks—was built by a large, successful company doesn’t necessarily mean that there haven’t been incidents.

At Cullen & Hemphill, PLC, we have represented people who have been injured in the following kinds of incidents in Central Florida:

  • Water slide accidents
  • Vehicle, bus, and tram accidents
  • Monorail and other major ride malfunctions
  • Assaults at theme parks
  • Slip and fall or trip and fall accidents
  • Innumerable other accidents

The most difficult part about investigating those cases is the fact that they are usually on the property of the theme park, and theme parks are very aggressive about defending those cases. They don’t give you easy access to information about the accidents. The state of Florida doesn’t require theme parks to publish their ride safety statistics, so you don’t find out about them.

We Work Hard to Build Your Case

Even if you’re a regular visitor to the park, you may not know that somebody got hurt last week, or two people got hurt two months ago on a particular ride. You have no way of knowing, but you can be sure that the companies know. If we get involved in a lawsuit with a major theme park, that’s information that we have a right to know about and we can get it through discovery. Sometimes it takes a lot of effort. It takes somebody who is willing to dig in and take on these big companies, even if it means going to a judge and asking once, twice, or three times for information about ride safety. You have to be persistent with the big companies that own the theme parks in Central Florida, and at Cullen & Hemphill, PLC, we are the most persistent attorneys around.
