Although many people may not realize it, properly maintained turf is essential for the safety of players. Football field turf should be soft and cushioned to ensure that it properly absorbs impacts and protects players from injuries when they inevitably fall.
Some of the injuries that could occur can include the following:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Concussions
- Skull fractures and other head injuries
- Neck injuries and back injuries
- Fractures and dislocations
- Sprains and strains
- And more
If improperly maintained turf at a school field directly resulted in injuries, the school district can be liable for the harm that occurred as a result. This is because school districts are responsible for keeping their students safe (of course, this includes student athletes). When school districts fails to identify and address hazards – and ignores concerns from parents and coaches – then they can be liable for harm that occurs as a result. For more information about your right to file a lawsuit for injuries that occur because of improperly maintained turf on a school football field, contact us today.
Can I Recover Compensation?If you or a loved one suffered an injury on a football field due to astro turf being improperly maintained, you could be entitled to receive compensation. Some of the categories of compensation available for recovery could include the following:
- Medical costs
- Lost earnings
- Pain and suffering
- Punitive damages
- Legal fees
- And more
What can I recover? The possible value of your claim will be strictly based on the details surrounding the incident and the resulting harm. It is important to note a previous settlement. One student athlete that was injured in 2021 was awarded a $31 million settlement by the school district; in this case, multiple coaches and parents had brought up credible and consistent concerns to the principal and the district (concerns can be traced back to many years).
For more information about the possible value of your claim, please do not hesitate to reach out to our team as soon as possible. Our lawyers are fully committed to helping you recover the maximum payout available for your claim whether it is through a settlement or through a verdict.
In general, personal injury claims are subject to a two-year statute of limitations. For incidents involving minors, this two-year deadline is tolled until the minor turns eighteen (unless a parent or guardian sues on the minor’s behalf). However, when government entities are involved, such as a school district, the statute of limitations that applies is much shorter – usually just six-months. Here at our law firm, we understand that trying to figure out how long victims and their families have to sue can be very confusing. To ensure that you have a thorough understanding of the total length of time that you have to file your claim, contact us today. Our team is ready to help you file your claim on time.
