A more personal approach to your injury claim.
Although recreational activities have inherent risks, operators of theme parks and recreational parks also have a duty of care to ensure the safety of visitors.
We’ve helped many people get compensation for park and theme park accident injuries, but we understand your situation is unique, and you’re different from every one of them. Getting you more compensation starts with building a personal relationship with you, to truly understand your situation.

How much can I claim for a park/theme park injury?
Recreational activity injury compensation payouts range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Depending on the severity of your injuries, the total compensation amount can include:
Lost income | The amount of income you’ve lost through time off work. |
Medical expenses | Resulting from your injuries. |
Travel expenses | To and from medical appointments and treatment. |
Domestic assistance | The cost of getting help with home duties. |
Pain and suffering | An amount to compensate you for your pain and suffering, based on the extent of your injuries. |
Future losses |
For example, your future earnings that you will miss out on as a result of your injuries. If you can’t work, you may also be entitled to a lump sum TPD payment through your superfund. |
Permanent impairment | An amount to cover your loss of functionality or limitation of movement of a part of your body. |
How we can help you.
The first step is to identify the public liability insurer that we’ll be claiming against. Then your Law Partners public liability lawyer will take care of the whole claim process for you, and will:
Frequently asked questions.
We understand that making a claim against a park authority or any business is a big decision, and one that may be causing you some stress. But remember that when you claim compensation, you’re seeking a settlement from a public liability insurer to compensate you for your losses. It’s a settlement you’re entitled to and deserve to receive if you’ve been harmed through negligence.
If you’re having trouble deciding, you’re welcome to simply call one of our public liability lawyers and have a chat. There’s no pressure or obligation to proceed with a claim if you’re not ready, and we’ll always be here if you decide to go ahead. But it’s best to lodge your claim as soon as possible, as it can be harder to gather evidence if a lot of time has passed.
No win no fee public liability lawyers offer to run your case for you and only get paid when you win. If you choose the right lawyer, it’s an excellent option that allows you to pursue your claim without any risk, but it’s important to check the lawyer’s costs agreement to fully understand what’s covered. With some no win no fee lawyers you can still end up having to pay thousands of dollars in expenses if they lose your case. This is because their no win no fee agreements cover their professional fees but not their costs, such as medical reports. At Law Partners, our no win no fee, no disbursements guarantee covers all our costs and disbursements as well as our professional fees, so you can pursue your claim without any risk.
For public liability claims to be successful, we need to prove that:
- Your accident could have been avoided if the park authority had taken action to prevent it
- You’ve incurred losses as a result of your injuries
A park authority can be held liable if they knew or should have known about a potential hazard and did nothing about it, or failed in their duty of care to you as a visitor. We have extensive experience with public liability claims, and we win over 99% of our cases. We can advise you over the phone on whether your claim is likely to succeed.
