Your Right to File a Ski Accident Claim

In an effort to limit their liability, many ski resort operators require their patrons to sign a release form prior to occupancy or use of the facilities. These documents typically waive a signer’s right to sue the resort if they are injured. However, these waivers are not always enforceable, especially if you are seriously injured. Our lawyers can help you determine whether you are eligible to file a lawsuit even if you signed one.

The most common types of ski accidents that lead to a claim include:

• Downhill skiing and snowboarding accidents
• Ski lift accidents
• Collisions with objects or other people
• Inadequate slope maintenance
• Negligent instruction or supervision
