The first thing that comes to mind regarding Disney World safety is the integrity of the rides themselves such as how secure are they? Are they in optimum working order? How does the weather effect the attractions? In the span of a year, from 2009 to April of 2010, Disney World accident count is up to nine (9).
July 5, 2009: A 21-year old monorail driver lost his life when his train crashed into another monorail due to a track-change malfunction.
August 6, 2009: A 47-year old Disney performer died from injuries received during a Captain Jack’s Pirate Tutorial show.
August 17, 2009: a Disney stuntman died after suffering a head injury while practicing a tumbling roll for the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular show.
October 31, 2009: A 4-year old girl was injured at Disney’s Fort Wilderness resort when a golf cart she was riding in turned over.
March 14, 2010: A Disney employee broke his leg after he was struck by a guest driving a car at the Tomorrowland Speedway .
March 23, 2010: Eight(8) people were injured, one (1) seriously when a Disney bus and a Waldorf Astoria bus crashed into each other near Epcot.
And on April 1, 2010: a 10-year old boy was killed when a bus hit him at Disney’s Fort Wilderness.
With millions of visitors every year, the list of Disney World accidents seems miniscule, but not to those who either were injured or who lost a loved one; these nine accidents changed what should’ve been a fun-filled day and a great time for the entire family into a life altering experience. So, it’s very important to pursue justice for all accidents diligently and with full disclosure.

Whenever a person or collection of partners opens a new business they have every hope and intention of it succeeding and even thriving and growing. This is an obvious aspect of business orientations. What is less obvious is considering the possibility of how much a potential business can actually expand. While it may be many people’s dream to create an international business on the same scale as say McDonald’s or some other equivalent, they also know the actuality of this is far removed from their reality potential. In fact, most business owners are not even prepared for the needs of expanding into another location, and definitely expanding into another state is rarely ever considered on a realistic scale.
And for this reason, the point of expansion for many businesses is also one of its most vulnerable times, with a high chance of failure. The logical assumption is that a business is doing really well if a second location is added and this applies to many business owners themselves, who have only dealt with a single unit and have no concept of running two or more. And when the possibility of opening a new location in an entirely new state, there is no doubt that the business will be in great need of professional consultation and legal services as well as advice.
If a business that was established in Salt Lake City is at the point it is ready and interested in expanding to Las Vegas, Nevada that business will definitely have a qualified legal team on its side. At the very least they will need a Salt Lake City lawyer who is familiar with Las Vegas Law , though they would be even better off with a firm that has offices and representatives in both cities. Expanding into new locations and other states is not every businesses’ goal , but just one of the factors to consider when choosing a quality law firm if you have reason to believe your business may eventually make the move.
