Amusement Park Accidents

San Diego Attorneys Handling Amusement Park Injury Cases

It makes news when a rollercoaster or other big ride malfunctions, particularly when it results in an injury to a child. An amusement park injury gives the press lots of opportunities for in-depth news reports on amusement park safety.

The less spectacular accidents that happen at amusement parks on almost a daily basis are less attractive to the news media, but the injuries are no less serious for people who get hurt. Just as in other accidents, the injured person may be entitled to financial compensation if it can be proved that the amusement park owner, its employees or another company were responsible for accident because of careless or reckless acts.

A Preeminent Personal Injury Law Firm:
We Handle Amusement Park Injury Cases Both Small and Large

As one of San Diego's foremost personal injury law firms, The McClellan Law Firm is well situated to help residents or visitors who suffer injury at San Diego amusement parks — including San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld, San Diego Wild Animal Park, Lego Land, Belmont Park, Knott's Berry Farm, Knott's Soak City, all Southern California Water parks, Disneyland, California Adventure, & Magic Mountain.

Founded by AV Peer Review Rated* trial lawyer Craig R. McClellan, our law firm has a truly compelling record of success in personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits. Over our 20-year history, we have recovered more than $25 million for our clients, including over 90 verdicts of more than $1 million each.

Our personal injury attorneys and staff have ample experience to give excellent legal guidance to injured people and their families in amusement park injury cases including:

  • Slip and fall accidents
  • Injuries caused by defective or malfunctioning rides
  • Accidents caused by improper maintenance of rides or buildings on park property
  • Assaults allowed by negligent security systems in amusement park parking lots or on their property

Amusement parks do not have to comply with any federal safety regulations. However, there are local safety codes that amusement parks must comply with. As we build our client's case, we demand inspection of all the park's maintenance and repair records to determine whether the park has in fact complied with local safety laws.
