FIS rules.jpg
  • Due to the increasing capacities of modern mountain transport facilities, i.e. cable cars and ski lifts, and the often inadequate capacities of downhill slopes, especially in smaller areas, there is a significant increase in traffic on downhill slopes. This is related to the obligation to comply with general FIS rules for all traffic participants and it is necessary to exercise increased caution and consideration when descending and ascending downhill slopes. Despite this, there is a significant increase in the number of collisions between traffic participants on downhill slopes, which must subsequently be resolved from the perspective of legal liability, as claims for damages are made by insurance companies or other interested parties.

    In these cases we offer:

    • counseling for individuals (accident participants or relatives)

    • consulting for legal entities (representing law firms)

    Services can only be provided if the forensic expert is not in a conflict of interest, i.e. if he is not asked to provide an expert opinion as part of criminal or civil legal proceedings.

  • Cases of accidents involving participants with partial or total fault in terms of the ski resort operator's liability are becoming more frequent. Other situations arise when a skier causes a fall through his own fault, but due to insufficient safety standards in the resort, he or she suffers a serious injury or even death. In these cases, in addition to compensation, criminal liability is also addressed.

    In these cases, a court-appointed expert in the field is asked to prepare an expert opinion, which, in addition to other statements and evidence, becomes part of the evidentiary materials during the trial.

    For reasons of impartiality of the court expert, we do not offer any services in this area.
