Lawsuits Against Disneyland

Although most Disneyland attractions are fun and safe, the massive size of some of these attractions and the huge number of riders can be a dangerous combination. Like any other amusement park, Disneyland presents a unique set of risks for riders. Some common causes of injuries at the park include:

• Faulty or poorly maintained equipment
• Equipment operator inexperience or lack of training
• Staff inattention and/or inexperience
• Inadequate number of medical or security personnel onsite
• Inadequate warnings for rides/attractions (e.g., “Do not ride if you have a heart condition”)

Though fatalities at Disneyland are rare, they do happen, while non-fatal injuries can be severe, even life-altering. These are some of the most common injuries that occur in these cases:

• Cuts and bruises
• Broken bones
• Broken teeth
• Sprains
• Neck and back injuries
• Concussions
• Burns
• Amputated limbs

If you were injured at Disneyland and believe the park, an equipment operator, equipment manufacturer, or another party was at fault, you might be wondering how to go about proving it. “Negligence” is the legal term for liability or responsibility in an incident. Proving liability generally involves satisfying the following criteria:

• The park or ride operator owed you a duty of care. They were responsible for operating the attraction(s) in a safe manner, and they failed to do so.
• They breached their duty. The ride operator or another party breached their legal obligation to avoid harming you.
• Their breach caused the accident. The other party’s actions were responsible for the accident, making them legally liable.
• There were losses suffered as a result. The other party’s actions caused you injury (physical or emotional) and/or property damage.

If you were injured at Disneyland, you may be able to file a lawsuit against Disneyland seeking compensation for one or more of the following:

• Lost wages and/or diminished earning capacity
• Past, current, and future medical bills
• Pain and suffering
• Physical therapy
• Loss of life’s enjoyment
• Funeral expenses
