Common Causes of Stuntman Injuries
While stunt work is inherently dangerous, much of this risk can be mitigated through the use of specialized equipment. When that equipment malfunctions, dangerous mishaps can occur, resulting in potentially catastrophic injuries such as broken bones, burns, traumatic brain injuries, and possibly death.
Our attorneys have the skill to handle stuntman injury claims that involve:
- Malfunctioning air ratchets and air rams
- Defective safety cables, harnesses, and wires
- Unsafe explosions and special effects
Depending on the circumstances, you may have grounds to pursue a wide range of monetary damages from those responsible for your injuries, including compensation for medical bills, lost wages, reduced quality of life, pain and suffering, and disfigurement. Our lawyers can help investigate the cause of your accident and provide the aggressive representation you need to maximize your potential settlement.
