After My Skiing Accident, What Are the First Steps to Start My Claim?

The first critical thing to do is to report the accident to the police. By law you must report an accident within 24 hours.

Document, document, document.

The next step is to document everything you remember and collect information like:

1. The conditions of the accident area and the surroundings.

2. What happened, in as much detail as you remember.

3. taking pictures of the accident area and of any evidence.

4. The name, phone number of witnesses and their statements

5. Take pictures of any object/s you had encountered during your accident, like your shoes, clothing you were wearing. Do not wear them again and store them.

6. If there were any warning “signs or devices” make sure to document their condition, location and their distance to your accident and take pictures.

Next, you need to be examined by a doctor/s depending on your injuries. And you must take it very seriously, to be fully examined from head to toe, because some symptoms of injuries such as Brain injuries including many others do not show up immediately.

Contact an experienced ski accident lawyer and provide the details of your case, to get advice and know your rights and options for the best and highest compensation for you.

Is The Ski Resort Operator/Owner Responsible for The Mishap That Injured Me?

Depending on the circumstances of the accident you could be entitled to a settlement.

However, the law takes the position that as a skier you take on an assumed responsibility every time you enter the resort, so the law is in favor of ski resort owners or operators.

You still could have a case if the ski resort owner or operator’s actions fall in any of the following:

● Did the ski resort fail to take a reasonable amount of care and duty?

● Was there a neglect of duty on part of the ski resort?

● Did this neglect of duty cause your accident?

● Did the injury cause you significant measurable injuries?

Is It Best for Me to Negotiate A Settlement With The Ski Resort?

Did you know that once you settle your case with the ski resort you also sign a paper releasing the resort from any future claims?

And if you cannot recover from your injuries and your recovery takes more than the time anticipated then you cannot go after the ski resort for any future damage.

So, it is to your advantage to have a ski injury lawyer look at your case before you settle with the resort.

Even If you have already settled with a ski resort for your injury, contact our ski injury expert lawyer to get a second opinion of your settlement.
