Film Studio Accident Lawyer

There is always a lot of excitement surrounding a visit to your favorite film studio. It is easy to find yourself distracted, taking in all sets and memorabilia. That is often when you could become the next victim of a film studio injury accident, which might include:

• Slip and fall
• Trip and fall
• Injury from a falling object
• Injury from an equipment failure
• Damage due to malfunctioning stunt devices or explosives
• Pedestrian versus vehicle accident

While the film studio does have a level of liability in protecting guests and staff on these sites, it is vital that you remain attentive and work to avoid the common hazards to ensure your safety and the well-being of loved ones visiting the site with you. But should you suffer an injury, please be sure to contact DTLA Law Group as soon as you have gotten a medical evaluation and the treatment needed for any injuries you sustained.

A significant amount of equipment is used behind the scenes at film studios, which increases the potential for severe or even life-threatening injuries. Guests must understand that even if they feel an accident was minor, they need to seek a complete medical evaluation to ensure no serious harm is masked by adrenaline. Getting the proper medical care immediately is the best way to achieve the most complete recovery possible.

Some of the injuries occurring at Los Angeles film studios include:

• Broken or shattered bones
• Dislocated joints or damage to the soft connective tissue of joints
• Soft tissue damage or severe lacerations
• Injuries to the neck, back, or spinal cord
• Head trauma ranging from a concussion to a traumatic brain injury
• Damage to internal organs or internal bleeding

Please know that seeking medical care is vital before addressing any other aspects of your film studio accident injury incident. However, once you have gotten that essential care, please reach out to DTLA Law Group to ensure you understand your rights and how to secure any compensation owed to you.

As a victim of an injury at a film studio, you must know that there is a time limit to file your claim and any claim that will result in a lawsuit. The Statute of Limitations defines the amount of time the judicial system provides. While the time allotted to file a claim will vary based on the legal matter of the case, once the Statute of Limitations has expired, the victim no longer has the right to seek justice or compensation for the harm or expenses incurred due to that specific incident.

In cases involving an injury accident such as a slip and fall or harm from a falling object at a film studio, the victim is given two years to file their claim with the court. If the case is not in the hands of the court at that time, there will likely be no exceptions to provide the victim more time to take legal action. It is always wise to seek legal advice from DTLA Law Group as soon as possible after suffering a film studio injury to ensure you have as much time as possible to make significant decisions about taking legal action.

As a property owner, you have an obligation to ensure the safety of any guest or customer. This responsibility extends to all public and private spaces to ensure the safety of the general public as they go about their normal daily routine. The guidelines for the level of care required are called duty of care and are part of premises liability law.

The care expected of a property owner or their staff must be equal to what the average prudent person would provide. For example, if you see litter on the floor, you pick it up to prevent someone from slipping and falling. Or, if you know that a step is broken, you repair it or block off the space to prevent anyone from getting hurt. These are the same actions expected from the staff at a film studio to ensure no one on the property is injured.

If the staff fails to meet the required level of care, they are said to be negligent in their duty of care. In addition, if it is later determined that the staff negligence caused or contributed to an injury, the property owner could be liable for the victim’s losses and harm. To learn more about how duty of care could impact your ability to file a lawsuit against the film studio where you were injured, please contact DTLA Law Group immediately.
