Who is Liable for Injuries on a Ski Lift?

Injury Lawyer Serving Boulder, Longmont, Broomfield & Surrounding Areas in Colorado

 

A woman and her two daughters fell out of a chairlift at Granby Ranch at the end of December, injuring the children and killing the mother. A man at Arapaho Basin narrowly avoided a similar fate when freed from a dangling backpack strap by a professional rip-liner at the beginning of January. These stories are making headlines across the nation and add to several others – some tragic, some heroic – that occur every year in Colorado’s Ski Country. But what happens when you are injured at a ski resort? Who can be held liable for your damages?

As with any accident, several factors can go into those that occur at a ski resort – and those factors will play a direct role in who can be held liable for damages.

By conducting a thorough investigation into your skiing or snowboarding injury, Attorney Jeffress can identify all liable parties and hold each of them accountable for any and all damages you have suffered.
