Guidance and representation when you, your family, or your business are confronted by claims arising from recreational and sports activities.
Request InfoCalifornia offers the opportunity to participate in virtually every type of recreational and sporting experience, at virtually any age — from traditional experiences to modern ones. With opportunity comes risk.
Baseball, softball, football, basketball, track and running, skiing, and other traditional sports and recreational activities.
Surfing, skateboarding, off-roading, mountain biking, ATV riding, scuba diving, and other modern recreational pursuits.
Risk in recreational and sports activities can range from insignificant bumps and bruises to serious, life-altering injury.
The risks of some injuries are considered "assumed" by the participant in the recreational or sports activity. Other injuries, however, may give rise to liability under California law when the risks inherent in the activity are unreasonably increased by the acts of another. (See, e.g., Distefano v. Forester (2001) 85 Cal.App.4th 1249.)
