Rodeo Injury Attorney
Rodeos are a popular form of entertainment in California and across the country. California Rodeo Salinas is the largest and oldest in the state, with over 100 years of tradition and history for all to enjoy. Patrons of this and other rodeo events come to see dozens of hard-working competitors take on bulls, broncs, and steers in roping, racing, and riding for the highest honors and rewards. Spectators love the excitement and skills demonstrated in the rodeo events, as well as the size and power displayed by the animals.
However, sitting in the grandstands, walking along rough dirt paths, and large groups of pedestrians navigating the often less than perfectly maintained spaces around the rodeo grounds can lead to safety issues and injury incidents. While many of the rodeo injury incidents involve minor harm like a twisted ankle or scraped knee, there are also far more severe injury incidents at a rodeo that can result in permanent limitations and damage if the victim does not get appropriate medical care as quickly as possible.

It is shocking to stop and think about all the safety hazards you might encounter at a rodeo. There are common issues such as a trip and fall or slip and fall incident. But that is only the beginning. Patrons need to be alert and watch for falling objects that could cause injuries, as well as being struck by a vehicle in the parking lot or a utility vehicle operated on the rodeo grounds. In addition, some issues are more unique to the rodeo setting, which can pose safety concerns, such as a bull or steer getting loose in the venue or breaking through the barriers surrounding the arena and entering the stands.
With this many hazards possible, it is not surprising that rodeo patrons can suffer a wide array of serious injuries that include one or more of the following:
- Fractured, broken, or shattered bones
- Dislocated joints or damage to the connective tissue of joints
- Soft tissue and nerve damage
- Harm to the back, neck, or spinal cord
- Puncture wounds or severe lacerations that can involve damage to internal organs and internal bleeding
- Facial injuries to the eyes, ears, nose, mouth, or delicate skin on the face
- Injuries to the head that range from a skull fracture or severe concussion to more serious brain bleeds or a traumatic brain injury
While it can certainly be embarrassing to fall or suffer other injuries while at the rodeo, do not let pride prevent you from seeking a complete medical evaluation to properly and quickly diagnose any injuries you sustained. The shock of a sudden fall or other kind of injury can create adrenaline that will mask the pain and severity of the damage. Without a medical evaluation, you could lose valuable time that will have a significant impact on your ability to quickly heal and recover from your injuries. Once you have gotten the medical care needed for your injuries, please contact DTLA Law Group to discuss the facts of the injury incident with a skilled and successful rodeo injury attorney to decide if a lawsuit is possible and could offer the financial solutions you need to overcome the hardships of your injuries.
How Does Duty Of Care Affect Rodeo Injury Victims?Premises liability laws were created to ensure the safety of guests at all public and private properties. These laws explain the construction, maintenance, and inspection standards property owners or their staff must follow to protect patrons’ safety. Duty of care goes on to define the level of care that must be provided by staff or the property owner when a safety issue is discovered during a routine inspection or is reported to them by a guest.
It states that the staff must provide at least the same level of care as would be offered by the average prudent person who faces the same or a similar safety issue. For example, if you discover that a light in your home is damaged and about to fall from the ceiling, you will immediately repair it or remove it to prevent anyone from being harmed by the falling object. That is the same action required from the staff at the rodeo to ensure the safety of guests and to comply with their legal obligation under duty of care.
If the staff at the rodeo fail to take the appropriate action swiftly, they can be deemed negligent in their duty of care. Furthermore, if that negligence is later found to have caused or contributed to a guest’s injuries, the rodeo or property owner can be liable for the losses and expenses incurred by the victim due to their injuries. Please do not hesitate to contact DTLA Law Group today if you feel that negligence was a factor in the injuries you suffered at a rodeo in California. Our staff is ready to help you determine if you have grounds for a lawsuit and how to proceed with legal action to secure any compensation owed to you.
How Much Is The Average Rodeo Injury Lawsuit Worth?As the victim of a personal injury, you need to understand that there are no predetermined values for certain injuries or injury incidents. The compensation sought by a rodeo injury lawsuit will be based on the actual losses and expenses incurred by the victim. This process ensures that all victims receive full and fair compensation for the harm they sustained.
Working closely with your DTLA Law Group rodeo injury attorney, you will compile all the documentation to verify your allowable expenses and calculate the compensation owed to you. The items typically included in this process are:
- All current and projected future medical expenses related to the care of your rodeo injuries
- The cost to replace any personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the rodeo injury incident
- All legal fees and expenses related to preparing, filing, and litigating your rodeo injury lawsuit
- Your lost income if the injuries suffered at the rodeo prevent you from working at your regular job until you are fully recovered or if you miss work to attend medical appointments for those injuries
The Statute of Limitations defines the time allotted to a victim to file their claim with the court. In cases involving personal injuries, the victim has two years from the date of the injury incident to file the case with the court. If the case is not filed within the time provided, the victim loses the right to seek compensation for losses caused by that incident. Please reach out to DTLA Law Group at your earliest convenience to discuss the facts of your case and time needed to prepare and file your lawsuit.
