Bounce House Lawsuits
In the US there have even been hundreds of lawsuits involving bounce houses. Lawsuits can come from broken arms to the most severe cases, where a wrongful death lawsuit can arise. Deaths in bounce houses are not as common and most happen when the children struck their heads on a hard surface, in other cases broken necks.
Many incidents occurr at a public events. Families have sued not only the bounce house company, but also the organizers of the event, including the event sponsors. Whether all of the named parties have sufficient liability is debatable. But responsibility will come wiht a lawsuite in many cases.
Anyone who allows children to use a bounce house, even those people renting a bounce house for a private party need to beware that they can be sued as a responsible party in case of an bounce house accident resulting in injury.
