Sneed|Mitchell Represents Client Injured In AMC Cinemas Woodlands

Litigation has begun against AMC theater company after our client suffered a trip and fall injury while attempting to get to his seat. Our client tripped over one of the electric recliners that was broken and unable to return to its default position. Evidence suggests that AMC was aware of hazard for an extended time but failed to provide adequate warning signs or similar to prevent injuries such as our clients.

How Sneed & Mitchell Proves Negligence Against A Movie Theater –


There are several elements which need to be shown in the court of law to prove your case;

  1. The movie theater owed a duty to the injured party – Premises liability laws place the highest duty on property owners.

  2. The movie theater breached its duty. As an example, this can be shown by a failure to properly clean wet surfaces or fix broken lighting.

  3. The beach of care contributed in causing the accident. The injured party fell due to the wet surface, causing them to sustain catastrophic injury.


Most Popular Movie Theaters in the U.S.

  • AMC Theaters

  • Regal Entertainment

  • USA Cineplex Entertainment

  • USACineplex Entertainment

  • Marcus Theatres Corp.

  • Harkins Theatres

  • Southern Theatres LLC

  • Theatres National Amusements, Inc.

The biggest risk of liability that movie theaters face is slip and fall injuries. If you have ever been inside of a movie theater, you’ll know that moviegoers are among the most careless and messiest of all customers. Spilling food and soda just about in every available surface: the floors, stairs, aisles, and bathrooms. When spills occur, it is up to the movie theater to respond quickly and take care of the mess or put up signs to deter any accidents from occurring.


If the movie theater is aware that a spill has occurred and does not act to address the spill and make the area safe for all customers, then they have acted negligently. If the movie theater was unaware of the spill, it is up to you to prove that the movie theater should have reasonably known about the spill and taken action to clean the spill. If you were injured in a movie theater, contact Sneed & Mitchell today to receive the legal consultation you deserve, and the consultation that will stop at nothing to prove that you were wronged and deserve the compensation to make up for the damages incurred.
