About Yoga Ball Slip and Fall Accidents
Yoga balls are used for exercises and stretches; in some instances, people actually would rather sit on yoga balls than on chairs (due to the benefits associated with sitting on yoga balls). In many cases, yoga balls are marketed as non-slip; without a doubt, the companies that make yoga balls available for purchase are aware of the risk of slips associated with their products. Depending on the circumstance, people might keep yoga balls inflated at all times or deflate them when not in use. Yoga ball slip and fall accidents can occur if unsuspecting parties step on a deflated yoga ball, step on an inflated yoga ball, or are sitting on a yoga ball as it loses traction on the floor. Regardless of the circumstances, the incident could result in a number of injuries.
The Injuries Associated with Yoga Ball Slip and Falls
Slip and fall incidents can range in severity; they can result in only minor injuries and even severe, long-term harm. Some of the injuries that victims of yoga ball slip and fall accidents could experience include the following:

Who is Liable for the Yoga Ball Slip and Fall Accident?
Liability for the incident will always depend on the specific situation. For instance, if you were using the yoga ball but slipped even though it was supposed to be non-slip, the yoga ball could be defective, and liability could fall onto the manufacturer. What if the incident occurred because someone left a yoga ball in a walkway? The owner of the yoga ball could be liable; however, if the incident occurred in the workplace and the employer either provided the yoga balls or allowed the yoga balls on the premises, the employer could also be liable.
Liability is based on the four elements of negligence – duty of care, breach of duty, cause, and harm. If a party or entity that owes you a duty of care exercises a breached duty of care, an incident could follow, potentially resulting in harm. If the harm a victim suffers can be directly associated with a breached duty of care, the victim could sue.

How Long Do You Have to Sue?
Are you interested in pursuing a slip and fall claim? If so, you must file your claim within the appropriate length of time. All claims are subject to a statute of limitations; the statute of limitations establishes the total length of time that claimants have to sue. If claimants do not file their claims within the time allowed by the statute of limitations, they could lose their right to sue. How long do you have to pursue your personal injury claim? In California, personal injury claims are normally subject to a two-year statute of limitations. This means that claimants will only have two years to pursue their claims. However, the statute of limitations could be tolled or paused. More specifically, based on the details surrounding the claim, exceptions could apply, resulting in a tolled or paused deadline. To ensure that you understand the total length of time that you have to sue, contact the experts at our firm today.
