Jumping on trampolines is a fun activity, especially for children. While many homes have a trampoline set up in the backyard, trampoline parks have become popular in recent years. However, many children are injured each year because of trampoline accidents. Although they are often avoided by adult supervision and other safety measures, some accidents are not.

With more than a decade of legal experience, we know what it takes to hold the negligent parties liable for their actions and maximize your award.

Liability in Trampoline Accidents

When a child or adult gets hurt, one of the first questions they have is, “Who was responsible for my injury?” In a trampoline accident, there could be multiple parties who are at fault, depending on the circumstances of the incident.

The following are the potentially responsible parties in a trampoline accident:

• The trampoline owner – A homeowner or anyone who controls the property is responsible for taking proper measures to protect visitors from injury, such as ensuring the trampoline is safe to use. Trampoline owners are responsible for maintaining it, making sure it is safe to use, and supervising while it’s being used. If an owner fails to do any one of the three tasks, he/she could be held liable for any accident involving the trampoline.
• A trampoline participant – Everyone who uses the trampoline must act in a reasonable and safe manner. If a trampoline user intentionally knocks a fellow user off of a trampoline, resulting in injury, the former could be held liable for any damages the other user suffered.
• The trampoline manufacturer – Manufacturers are required to ensure their products are safe and properly labeled to warn users of potential risks involved when using such products. If there was a defect in the trampoline or the device lacked proper warning, the manufacturer could be held liable for the accident.

The Dangers of Trampoline Parks

There are hundreds of trampoline parks and bounce houses all throughout Texas. These facilities make visitors sign liability waivers to absolve park owners of any responsibility when an accident and injury occurs.

However, park owners should take further measures to ensure the premises is safe. They must ensure the trampolines are in working order. Protective covers must be secure over springs.

So, if a park owner hasn’t properly maintained its trampoline or fails to provide protective covers and a user suffers an injury because of the danger, they could be liable for any damages according to the premises liability law.
