In Mustang Ridge, families often travel along SH-130 or US-183 toward Austin or San Marcos seeking “safe family fun” at one of the region’s massive trampoline and adventure parks. You take your children to a birthday party at an Urban Air or an afternoon jump at Altitude, trusting that the teenage staff and the corporate branding provide a safe environment for your child to burn off energy. But in a single second, the laughter stops. A double-bounce launch, a harness that wasn’t clipped correctly, or an under-filled foam pit converts a Saturday afternoon into a life-altering medical emergency.
At Attorney911, led by managing partner Ralph Manginello with over 25 years of courtroom experience, we’ve seen the aftermath of these business decisions. We’ve stood in trauma bays with parents from Mustang Ridge while surgeons explain what happens when a growth plate is destroyed at age nine. We’ve written the demand letters that make insurance adjusters realize they aren’t dealing with a generalist firm, but with a team that knows ASTM F2970 and the physics of trampoline injuries better than the park’s own risk managers.
If your child was injured at a trampoline park or on a backyard trampoline in Mustang Ridge, you may feel an overwhelming sense of guilt or confusion. You signed the waiver. You let them jump. You might think your case is over before it begins. We are here to tell you that what happened to your child wasn’t an accident—it was the predictable output of a corporate system that prioritizes throughput and profit margins over the safety floor established by international standards.
The Worst Scream You Could Ever Hear from a Child
A Texas mother named Kati Hill once described the moment her three-year-old son Colton hit a trampoline mat during a designated “Toddler Time.” A larger child landed nearby, and her son’s femur—the strongest bone in the human body—snapped. “He just let out the worst scream that you could ever have heard from a child,” she told ABC News. Colton spent months in a body cast. His mother’s warning was shared over 240,000 times, but the pattern continues in Mustang Ridge and across the state.
In Harris County, a sixteen-year-old named Max Menchaca fell through a tear in a trampoline slide at Cosmic Jump. He didn’t hit a safety net; he hit the concrete floor beneath the equipment. He suffered a skull fracture and a traumatic brain injury. Despite a signed waiver, a Texas jury found the park grossly negligent and returned a total verdict of $11.485 million. We bring that same level of tenacity to every case we handle in Mustang Ridge.
Our team includes associate attorney Lupe Peña, a former insurance defense lawyer who used to represent these recreational businesses against families like yours. He knows exactly which segments of those kiosk waivers are legally void in Texas. He knows which defenses the insurance adjusters at the massive towers of Sky Zone or Urban Air will deploy first—because he used to draft them. Now, he uses that “defense playbook” to dismantle their arguments for our clients in Mustang Ridge.
Why Mustang Ridge Families Need Exclusive Catastrophic Injury Representation
Most personal injury firms treat a trampoline case like a standard slip-and-fall. We don’t. We recognize that these are high-velocity energy-transfer events that require an understanding of pediatric biomechanics and corporate structural archeology.
We currently litigate a $10 million lawsuit against the University of Houston involving rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure. The physiology of that case—the breakdown of muscle tissue under extreme exertion and heat—is identical to the “rhabdo” cases we see in children who jump for ninety minutes straight in a hot Mustang Ridge-area park with poor ventilation. We have the medical experts, the digital forensic tools, and the 25 years of federal court experience to make multinational corporations pay for the damage they cause.
If you are reading this from a hospital bed or a waiting room near Mustang Ridge, call us at 1-888-ATTY-911. We offer fluent Spanish services (Hablamos Español), and we work on a contingency fee basis. You pay us nothing unless we win. Our spoliation letters go out within 24 hours of your call to ensure that the surveillance video of your child’s injury isn’t “accidentally” overwritten.
The Architecture of Negligence: What Happened at the Park?
A trampoline injury in Mustang Ridge is rarely the fault of the child. It is the result of a “rule vacuum” where industry standards are treated as suggestions. To win your case, we look directly at the physics of the mechanism and the standard of care the park chose to ignore.
The Double-Bounce Physics (The Catapult Effect)
The signature injury in Mustang Ridge-area trampoline parks is the double-bounce. When a 200-pound adult lands on a trampoline bed at the same instant a 60-pound child is pushing off it, kinetic energy transfer multiply the child’s launch force by up to 4x. The child isn’t jumping anymore; they are a projectile being thrown at a velocity their developing bones cannot absorb.
The industry’s own safety standard, ASTM F2970, requires parks to operationalize age and weight separation. When you walk into an Urban Air or Sky Zone near Mustang Ridge on a Saturday afternoon and see teenagers and toddlers sharing the same main court, you are looking at a walking ASTM violation. Research by Nysted in the British Journal of Sports Medicine proves that the smaller jumper is 14 times more likely to be injured in these mismatch scenarios. If the park monitor stood by and watched it happen, they committed gross negligence.
Foam Pit Failures and SCIWORA
Foam pits in Mustang Ridge parks are designed to look soft, but they are often bacterial-heavy reservoirs of compressed polyurethane. When foam blocks stay unrotated for months, they lose their deceleration capacity. A jumper who enters the pit head-first can wedge their skull between blocks, applying uneven friction. The head stops, but the body’s momentum continues, torquing the neck.
This often leads to a pediatric-specific injury called SCIWORA (Spinal Cord Injury Without Radiographic Abnormality). A child may have a “normal” CT scan in a Mustang Ridge-area emergency room, but hours later, they lose feeling in their legs. The ligamentous laxity of a child’s spine allows for spinal cord ischemia even when the bones look fine on an X-ray. We work with pediatric neurologists who understand this physiology and can prove that the park’s compacted foam pit was the proximate cause.
The Industry Standard the U.S. Ignores
While American parks operate under the voluntary ASTM F2970-22, the rest of the developed world has moved to mandatory rules. EN ISO 23659:2022 is the international standard that Europe treats as a ceiling; U.S. chains like Sky Zone, Urban Air, and Altitude often treat it as a floor they’d rather not reach. When we depose a Mustang Ridge park manager, we ask them about the international safety requirements. If they don’t know them, they aren’t qualified to supervise your child.
Go-Karts and Adjacent Attractions
Trampoline parks near Mustang Ridge are no longer just about jumping. They have bolted on go-karts, ziplines like the “Sky Rider,” and 30-foot climbing walls. The December 2025 death of six-year-old Emma Riddle at an Urban Air in Port St. Lucie involved a go-kart mechanical failure where the vehicle surged forward into a wall.
These attractions frequently operate under the same trampoline-drafted waiver, which may not even cover non-trampoline injuries. We name the manufacturers of these specific components—like Ropes Courses, Inc. or UA Attractions, LLC—as co-defendants to reach the deep pockets of corporate insurance towers.
Immediate Action for Mustang Ridge Families
- Preserve the wristband: It contains the RFID data that proves when your child entered and which zones they were permitted to use.
- Photograph the padding: If the foam was torn or the springs were exposed at the park near Mustang Ridge, that is evidence of a maintenance breach.
- Don’t wait for the park’s “incident report”: They often sanitize these documents before giving you a copy. We demand the metadata to see who “revised” the story 48 hours later.
Call 1-888-ATTY-911 for a free, confidential evaluation. We advance every expense for biomechanical engineers and pediatric specialists so that your family can focus on recovery while we focus on the fight.
Who is Responsible for the Remainder of Your Child’s Life?
When a catastrophic injury occurs in Mustang Ridge, the park’s first move is to isolate the liability. They will tell you that the local park is “independently owned and operated” by an LLC with a $1 million policy. They want you to believe that the tiny entity on the lease is the end of the line. At Attorney911, we know better. We follow the money upstream through the 5-layer defendant stack.
Piercing the 5-Layer Defendant Stack
If your child was hurt at a chain location near Mustang Ridge, we perform corporate archeology on day one.
- The Operator LLC: The local entity that typically doesn’t have the assets to cover a multi-million-dollar spinal cord injury.
- The Franchisee: The multi-unit owner who may operate ten or twenty locations across Texas.
- The Franchisor: Entities like Sky Zone Franchising LLC or Urban Air Franchise Holdings, who mandate the safety manuals that the local park violated.
- The Parent Corporation: Sky Zone, Inc. (formerly CircusTrix LLC) or Unleashed Brands.
- The Private Equity Sponsor: Firms like Palladium Equity Partners or Seidler Equity Partners, whose investment committees often approve the very cost-cutting measures—like reducing attendant-to-jumper ratios—that caused the injury.
We use the 2023 arbitration result of Damion Collins in Kansas as our template. In that case, the franchisor (UATP Management) was forced to absorb 40% of a $15.6 million award because they failed to implement safety changes at the franchisee level. If a franchisor exerts control over the safety protocols in Mustang Ridge, they share the liability.
Why Your Homeowners’ Insurance May Not Be the Answer
In backyard trampoline cases across Mustang Ridge, homeowners often assume their policy will cover a neighbor child’s injury. The reality is brutal: most HO-3 and HO-5 policies in Texas explicitly exclude trampoline injuries or require a specific, expensive endorsement. If you are a homeowner facing a lawsuit, or a parent suing a neighbor, we look for the umbrella layers and the manufacturer’s product liability tower.
The Manufacturer-Retailer Pincer Move
If a backyard trampoline frame weld snapped or a net enclosure failed, we don’t just look at the homeowner. We target:
- Jumpking, Skywalker, or Springfree: For design and manufacturing defects.
- Walmart or Amazon: Under the Bolger v. Amazon and Oberdorf v. Amazon doctrines, which hold retailers liable as “sellers” of defective products, especially with private labels like Bouncepro or Amazon Basics.
The Role of State Regulators in Texas
Texas families in Mustang Ridge should know that the state has no comprehensive trampoline park safety act. The Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) regulates Class B inflatable rides—like bungee trampolines and inflatable obstacle courses—under Texas Occupations Code Chapter 2151. But the trampoline decks themselves are statutorily excluded.
This regulatory gap is an invitation for negligence. Because Texas doesn’t mandate injury reporting, parks can hide their patterns of harm. We close that gap by subpoenaing 911 CAD records and EMS run sheets from Mustang Ridge-area responders to prove the park had actual knowledge of a dangerous condition at a specific attraction.
The $10 Million Rhabdo Bridge
Our firm’s active litigation against large institutions for rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney failure gives us a technical advantage in Mustang Ridge trampoline cases. If your child jumped for a two-hour block at a park, drank one sugary soda, and arrived at the ER two days later with “cola-colored” urine, the park and the franchisor are on the hook for their failure to provide hydration protocols and heat-stress monitoring. We know how to depose their operations manager on the biochemistry of muscle breakdown because we do it every day in our UH case.
You didn’t choose to be in this position, but you can choose who fights for you. Call Attorney911 at 1-888-ATTY-911. We represent families in Mustang Ridge and across the country on a 100% contingency basis.
Dismantling the Waiver: Why the Kiosk Agreement Fails in Texas
The most common phrase we hear from parents in Mustang Ridge is, “I signed the waiver, so I don’t think I can do anything.” This is exactly what the corporate lawyers who drafted those documents want you to believe. They designed that kiosk interface to feel like a routine sign-in, not a legal contract. In Mustang Ridge and across Texas, the waiver is often a speed bump, not a wall.
The Dresser “Fair Notice” Doctrine
Under the landmark Texas Supreme Court case Dresser Industries v. Page Petroleum, a waiver must provide “fair notice” to be enforceable against a negligence claim. This requires two things that many Mustang Ridge-area parks fail to provide:
- The Express Negligence Rule: the waiver must clearly and specifically use the word “negligence.” If it just says “all claims” or “injury of any kind,” it fails.
- Conspicuousness: the release language must be so bold, large, or in a contrasting color that a reasonable person from Mustang Ridge would notice it. A tiny scroll-box on a glitchy iPad screen rarely meets this UCC-derived standard.
Minors Cannot Consent to Their Own Harm
If your minor child was the one injured in Mustang Ridge, Texas law is on your side. The 1993 ruling in Munoz v. II Jaz Inc. established that a parent in Texas cannot sign away a minor child’s personal injury cause of action. While the parent might waive their own right to be reimbursed for medical bills, the child’s personal claim for pain and suffering, impairment, and future medical costs survives the signature.
The Gross Negligence Carve-Out
No waiver in Texas can release a company from gross negligence. As defined in Transportation Insurance Co. v. Moriel, gross negligence involves an extreme degree of risk that the park was subjectively aware of but consciously chose to ignore.
- Did the park in Mustang Ridge know the foam pit was four inches too shallow?
- Did they ignore three prior broken-bone reports on the same court that week?
- Was the monitor instructed “NOT to call 911” for major injuries?
These are gross-negligence predicates. When we find evidence of this in discovery, the waiver disappears, and the $11.485 million Cosmic Jump verdict becomes the benchmark for your recovery.
The Delfingen Bilingual Attack
Mustang Ridge has a vibrant Spanish-speaking community. Our associate attorney Lupe Peña often employs the Delfingen US-Texas v. Valenzuela doctrine. If a park presented an English-only waiver to a parent whose primary language is Spanish, without offering an explanation or translation, there was no “meeting of the minds.” The contract was never formed. We represent families in their native language to ensure the insurance carrier doesn’t use the language gap to close the case for pennies.
Arbitration and the 2025 Jurisdictional Split
The law is moving fast. In 2025, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled in Santiago v. Philly Trampoline Park that parents cannot bind a minor to arbitration. In Texas, the Supreme Court’s ruling in Cerna v. Pearland Urban Air was more park-friendly regarding delegation clauses. However, these rulings often apply only to the “signing” entity. We name the upstream franchisor, the PE sponsor, and the manufacturer to keep at least part of your Mustang Ridge case in a courtroom where a jury—not a private arbitrator—decides your child’s future.
Key Waiver Facts for Mustang Ridge Cases
- The “Inherent Risk” Lie: Losing your balance is an inherent risk. An unmaintained bed snapping under you is negligence. THE WAIVER DOES NOT COVER NEGLIGENCE.
- The Birthday Party Host Trap: If another parent signed for your child at a party near Mustang Ridge, that signature is a legal nullity. Only a legal guardian under Texas Family Code § 153.073 has the authority to sign (and even then, Munoz applies).
- The Electronic Purge: Kiosk metadata is often purged every 72 hours. We send forensic experts to capture the DVR and kiosk logs before then.

The Medical Reality: Pediatric Injuries Are Biomechanically Complex
When a child from Mustang Ridge falls at an Urban Air or Altitude, the emergency room visit is only the beginning of a long-tail medical story. Because pediatric bone and tissue are still developing, the “healing” phase often hides the most serious permanent damage. We work with specialized pediatric orthopedic and neurological experts to ensure your damages calculation isn’t based on today’s bills, but on seventy years of future needs.
Salter-Harris Growth Plate Fractures
Children’s bones grow from the physes, or growth plates. A “trampoline fracture” (distal tibial metaphysis) often involves these plates. Under the Salter-Harris classification, a Type III or IV fracture carries a high risk of growth arrest. Your child might look healed in a month, but two years later, you realize one leg is measureably shorter than the other because the growth plate stopped producing bone. We build Mustang Ridge cases with 10-year monitoring plans and corrective osteotomy costs built into the life-care plan.
TBI and the “Invisible” Regression
A concussion on a Mustang Ridge-area court monitor’s watch might be dismissed as “getting your bell rung.” But in a developing brain, a traumatic brain injury (TBI) can lead to executive function damage that doesn’t manifest until your child hits middle school and academy performance drops. We retain pediatric neuropsychologists to establish a cognitive baseline and quantify the academic aides and special education services your child will need for the next decade.
SCIWORA and Cervical Trauma
As discussed, Spinal Cord Injury Without Radiographic Abnormality is a pediatric nightmare. If your teen performed a backflip into a foam pit and felt sudden back pain, the vertebral artery may have suffered a dissection. This is the Elle Yona mechanism—a spinal-cord stroke that was initially misdiagnosed as a “panic attack” in 2024. A delay in medical recognition after a Mustang Ridge park injury is itself a damages multiplier that we hold the park accountable for through their failure to train staff in emergency recognition.
Exertional Rhabdomyolysis and Acute Kidney Injury
Most personal injury lawyers don’t even know how to spell rhabdomyolysis. We are currently litigating a $10 million UH case because we understand it intimately. In Mustang Ridge, if your child jumps for two hours in an 85-degree indoor facility, their muscle cells (myoglobin) can rupture and flood their kidneys. If your child is listless, vomiting, or has dark urine, skip the urgent care and go to a Level 1 pediatric trauma center like Dell Children’s in Austin immediately. Then call us to preserve the ambient temperature logs and hydration records at the park.
Foam Pit Infections: The MRSA Vertical
Foam pits near Mustang Ridge are impossible to sanitize. The open-cell polyurethane cubes absorb sweat, blood, and vomit. The CDC has tracked MRSA outbreaks in athletic facilities for years, and a foam pit is a bacterial incubator. If your child developed a staph infection or cellulitis after contact with a foam pit, the park’s inadequate sanitation protocol is a breach of the standard of care.
Damages Your Case Must Include
- Economic ($500K – $15M+): ORIF surgeries, hardware removal, wheelchair modifications, lifetime attendant care (for SCI), and lost earning capacity.
- Non-Economic: Past and future pain, mental anguish, and pediatric loss of the pleasures of life.
- Punitive: For the corporate decisions at the Palladium or Seidler level that chose staff-cuts over child safety.
We represent families, not files. As client Chad Harris said, “You are NOT a pest to them… You are FAMILY to them.” When you’re standing at a hospital bed near Mustang Ridge, you need a firm that treats your child’s recovery like our own. 1-888-ATTY-911. Hablamos Español.
The Evidence Clock: Preservation is the Difference Between Success and Failure
In Mustang Ridge, the legal deadline to file a personal injury claim is two years. But the evidence deadline is measured in days. The trampoline industry is notoriously aggressive about “finalizing”—read: revising—incident reports and resetting DVR surveillance cycles. If you wait until your child is out of the cast to call a lawyer, you may find that the park has already sanitized the history of your accident.
The 7-to-30-Day Surveillance Window
Most trampoline parks near Mustang Ridge use DVR or NVR systems that overwrite footage on a rolling cycle. Some purge as quickly as seven days. Our spoliation letter goes out within 24 hours of your call—by certified mail, email, and fax—putting the park’s general counsel on notice. If they overwrite the video after receiving our letter, we move for an adverse-inference instruction, telling the jury to assume the missing footage would have proven the park’s guilt.
Metadata Forensics for Incident Reports
We don’t accept the printed page the manager hands you. We subpoena the park’s cloud-based incident management database. We use digital forensic tools like Magnet AXIOM and Cellebrite to pull the metadata. We want to see who edited the report on a Sunday morning after your Saturday injury. If “monitor was distracted” was deleted and replaced with “patron attempted unauthorized maneuver,” we have a fraud-grade litigation leverage point that unlocks punitive damages.
Ex-Employee Witness Outreach
Mustang Ridge parks have high staff turnover—often 150% annually. The teenagers who saw your child get hurt today will likely be working somewhere else in three months. They aren’t worried about being fired once they’ve already left. We track down these ex-employees through LinkedIn alumni searches and state L&I records to get the unvarnished truth that the park’s corporate lawyer won’t provide.
The 48-Hour Scene Inspection
We deploy biomechanical engineers and ASTM-compliance experts to the facility near Mustang Ridge immediately. We don’t just look at the trampolines; we measure foam pit depth, test airbag pressure, and check for the “pad-mat-frame” gap that causes so many Sky Zone foot-entrapment injuries. We capture the scene before the park can swap the worn padding or refill the pit.
Documents We Demand on Day One
- Attendant Training Files: Did the monitor have the $25 IATP certification, or just a 90-minute orientation video?
- Daily Inspection Logs: Are they identical for the last 60 days? If so, they’re pro-forma fabrications.
- Franchisor Audit Reports: Did the corporate office flag the understaffing in Mustang Ridge months before your child was hurt?
- Insurance Applications: Did the park lie to their insurer about their monitor-to-jumper ratios to get lower premiums?
Why Attorney911 is Structurally Different
Most PI firms are “demand mills.” They wait for the insurer to offer the $1M policy limit and take their cut. We are a trial firm. We’ve litigated against BP, FedEx, and Amazon. The private equity sponsors behind these parks—like Palladium Equity or Seidler Equity—don’t bring anything we haven’t beaten. We prepare every case for a Harris County or Tarrant County jury because preparation pressure is the only thing that moves corporate towers.
Call 1-888-ATTY-911. No fee unless we win. We advance every forensic cost. Your child’s recovery fund stays intact while we build the case that will protect their future.
Frequently Asked Questions for Mustang Ridge Families
What should I do if a park manager told us NOT to call 911?
This is a documented industry tactic. In Southlake, Texas, parents reported that employees were instructed to downplay injuries and prevent 911 calls to avoid generating public records. If the park near Mustang Ridge refused to call emergency services for your child’s open fracture or head strike, that is evidence of policy-level recklessness. You should have made the call yourself—but even if you didn’t, we will use that refusal to argue for punitive damages.
Can I sue if my child was hurt at a birthday party but I wasn’t there to sign the waiver?
Yes. Under Texas Family Code § 153.073, only a legal parent or court-appointed conservator has the authority to sign a waiver for a minor. If a friend’s parent, a coach, or a grandparent signed for your child during a party near Mustang Ridge, that waiver is a legal nullity. The park took your money and admitted your child without a valid contract. This is a significant gap in their defense that we exploit on day one.
How much is my child’s case worth?
Every case depends on the specific injury and the insurance layers we can find. For a moderate TBI, settlements often range from $1M to $5M. For a permanent cervical spine injury like Damion Collins sustained, arbitration produced $15.6 million. Catastrophic pediatric cases involve our Pediatric Life-Care Plan architecture, which forecasts costs for the next seventy years. Total LCPs for severe SCI often reach $25M+. We don’t guess—we calculate.
If my child only has a “minor” broken bone, is it still worth calling a lawyer?
Many bones that look like a “minor” break are actually Salter-Harris fractures through the growth plate. If that damage isn’t properly documented now, you may lose your right to recover when the leg stops growing normally six years from now. A free consultation at 1-888-ATTY-911 costs nothing, but it ensures you don’t underestimate the long-tail damage of a high-energy trampoline impact.
We are a Spanish-speaking family in Mustang Ridge. How will that help our case?
Under the Delfingen doctrine, a TX court can void an arbitration agreement in a trampoline waiver if the park failed to provide a Spanish translation to a patron with limited English literacy. Our associate attorney Lupe Peña is a native Spanish speaker. She will speak with you directly—sin intérpretes—to build your case on the basis of procedural unconscionability.
Is the “foam pit” really as dangerous as people say?
Yes. The industry knows that foam pits cause cervical compression injuries and quadriplegia. That is why major chains are spending millions to replace them with airbags. A park near Mustang Ridge that still uses a foam pit is operating below the available state-of-the-art safety technology to save money. We use their own industry’s transition to airbags as evidence that they knew their foam pit was unsafe.
How do I know if the trampoline in my backyard is defective?
We cross-reference every Mustang Ridge backyard case against the CPSC recall database. Major manufacturers like Jumpking (1 million units), Skywalker, and Sportspower (Walmart Bouncepro) have all issued recalls for frame welds, net breakage, and enclosure failures. If your trampoline matched a recall model, the manufacturer faces strict product liability. Do NOT throw the trampoline away; it is the most important piece of evidence in your case.
What happens if the park’s insurance policy is “only $1 million”?
$1 million is just the primary layer. National chains like Sky Zone, Urban Air, and Altitude have “umbrella” and “excess” layers that can extend to $100 million or more. Because the franchisor mandates the safety manual used in Mustang Ridge, we can often access the franchisor’s deeper insurance tower. We find every layer—because your child’s medical needs don’t stop when the primary policy runs out.
Why shouldn’t I let the park pay for our ER copay?
The “Med-Pay” check for $3,000 or $5,000 is a Trojan Horse. On the back of that check is likely a release of all future claims. If you deposit it, you may be signing away your right to recover for the $200,000 surgery your child needs next year. Never sign anything or deposit a “goodwill” check without our team reviewing it.
How long does a lawsuit usually take?
Straightforward fracture cases can settle in 12-18 months. Catastrophic cases with complex medical chronologies and multiple experts often take 2-3 years. We prepare for trial from day one. When the defense sees our biomechanical engineer’s report and our life-care plan, they realize the cheapest way out is a full settlement, not a courtroom battle.
Call 1-888-ATTY-911 available 24/7. Hablamos Español. Our offices in Houston, Austin, and Beaumont are the base for a national practice that knows exactly how to make trampoline parks and manufacturers in Mustang Ridge accountable.
Why Attendee911 is the Moat Between You and the Corporate Defense Team
Most personal injury firms handle a trampoline case the way they’d handle any slip-and-fall. They send a demand letter, wait for the insurer to offer the primary policy limit, and convince the family to take it so they can move the file. Attorney911 doesn’t work that way because we didn’t build the firm to work that way.
Our Structural Advantages
- The Defense-Side Insider: Our associate attorney Lupe Peña used to draft and defend the same waiver language Mustang Ridge-area parks rely on today. He knows which clauses are paper-thin and which arguments move an insurance adjuster’s reserve.
- The 50-State Authority: We haven’t just memorized Texas law. We have a 50-state database of trampoline-specific waiver rules, SOLs, and attractive-nuisance doctrines. Whether your injury happened in Mustang Ridge or while on vacation in Florida or Colorado, our strategy is ready.
- The Rhabdo Mastery: Our active $10 million UH lawsuit means we already have the expert nephrologists and medical chronologists needed for extended-jumping and crush-injury cases. No other Texas firm brings this active medical-litigation architecture to the trampoline space.
- The BP Scale: Ralph Manginello litigated the BP Texas City refinery explosion. We’ve gone head-to-head with the largest corporate defense teams in the world and won. The private equity sponsors behind Sky Zone and Urban Air do not intimidate us.
The Contingency Promise
You pay us nothing—zero—unless we win your case. We advance every investigative expense. The $20,000 for the biomechanical reconstruction? The $15,000 for the life-care planner? We pay it from our pocket. We want you to focus on your child’s rehabilitation near Mustang Ridge. We handle the financial risk of the litigation.
As client Donald Wilcox said: “One company said they would not accept my case. Then I got a call from Manginello… I got a call to come pick up this handsome check.” We take the difficult cases—the waiver-heavy cases that other firms decline—because we know the law better than they do.

Conclusion: The Case Starts Today
What happened to your child at a park near Mustang Ridge was not an accident—it was the predictable output of a business model that scales risk against children. The AAP has been warning for 25 years. ASTM F2970 was written by the industry itself as a floor, yet parks across Texas choose to operate in the basement to save on labor costs.
Your daughter wasn’t hurt by chance; she was hurt because an investment committee approved an attendant-to-jumper ratio that was demonstrably unsafe. Your son wasn’t hurt by bad luck; he was hurt because a manufacturer sold a product that should never have been in anyone’s backyard. We are here to name those decisions, find those decision-makers, and make them accountable for the remainder of your child’s life.
The park’s insurance adjuster will call you. She will sound friendly. She will ask about your family. Do not take that call. Every minute the park delays a 911 call or a refund is a minute their DVR gets closer to overwriting. We send the spoliation letter inside 24 hours of your retention. Every time.
Attorney911 was built for exactly this fight. Ralph Manginello brings 25+ years of catastrophic-injury experience. Lupe Peña brings the defense-side playbook. We advance every cost, and your consultation is free.
