Horse Riding Accident

HORSE RIDING ACCIDENT LAWYERS

Horse Riding Accident Lawyers: Florida’s balmy climate, many beaches, and constant flow of vacationing tourists make it a perfect place to own an equestrian business. In fact, nearly 450,000 Florida residents make their living or volunteer their time in various areas of the equine industry. There are over half a million horses in the state, and nearly two-thirds of these horses are ridden in either competition or recreational endeavors.

While a booming equestrian industry is good for the state economy, it also means that there are thousands of horse riding injuries suffered every year – the majority involving novice riders and minors. Equestrian sporting injuries may simply be a result of the inherent risks of interacting with or riding such a large and powerful animal; but all too often horseback riding accidents are caused by the negligence or willful wrongdoing of equine activity sponsors, employees, or business owners. In these cases, an experienced horse Riding Accident Lawyers can help victims receive compensation for their injuries.

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS FOR HORSE RIDING ACCIDENTS

If you or a family member has suffered an injury while engaged in any equestrian activity, and you feel that someone else was at fault, theHorse Riding Accident Lawyers of Madalon Law can assist you in pursuing a horse riding injury claim.

Florida law includes an Equine Activity Liability Act, which can affect the outcome of any horse riding injury claim. Our team of horse riding injury attorneys is experienced with the complexities of this statute. We can help you gather pertinent evidence, delineate which parties may be held responsible for your injuries, and establish what kind of liability case to pursue.

Common causes of legal action in equestrian activity injury cases include:

  • Premises Liability – When trails marked for riding are poorly marked, poorly maintained, lacking required cautionary signage, or have any known or knowable dangers along the way, the owners of the property and operators of the equestrian facility may be liable for injuries incurred while riding.
  • General Negligence – Negligent actions of an equine activity sponsor, owner, or employee may include improperly training a horse, pairing novice riders with horses needing experienced ones, failing to adequately instruct riders, failing to fasten saddles and girths on the horse, leaving a novice rider behind on guided rides, failing to provide protective gear, or other actions that put riders at risk.
  • Product Liability – When equipment, such as riding helmets, saddles, girth, or bridles are defective, injuries are likely to occur. A product liability claim can be pursued if a defect in equipment can be proven to have substantially increased the risk of harm to a rider. The defect may be in the initial design of the equipment, or due to poor manufacturing – or the defect may be in the labeling of the equipment, failing to properly warn users of dangers associated with its use.

INJURIES FROM HORSE RIDING ACCIDENTS

Falls from horses and other riding accidents result in a high incidence of severe injuries, including traumatic brain injuries; spinal cord injuries; lacerations or contusions, maxillofacial injuries; dislocated or sprained joints, and bone fractures. These injuries can result in loss of vision, long-term mental incapacitation, paralysis, severe pain, or even death.

You have the right to seek compensation for horse riding injuries against all liable parties. This compensation may include medical and healthcare expenses, future medical and rehabilitation costs, lost wages (including loss of future income), and even non-economic damage compensation, such as pain and suffering or mental anguish.
