Assumption of Risk

“Assumption of risk is a legal defense where a defendant argues that the injured party knowingly and voluntarily accepted the risks involved in a particular activity.”

This doctrine can limit or bar recovery if it's shown you participated in a dangerous activity with full awareness of the risks involved.

Understanding how assumption of risk may apply can affect how you present or defend a claim.

To evaluate whether this defense could impact your case, get in touch with a legal professional.
