- What caused the slip and fall accident? If the owner fails to clear a sidewalk or stairs within a reasonable time after a snowstorm, the icy conditions can cause a slip and fall accident with serious injuries. Broken stairs and poorly maintained parking lots, especially when combined with poor lighting, can also cause a slip and fall accident.
- Building maintenance is essential for safety. When an elevator kept breaking down and management ignored complaints, a senior citizen fell down the elevator shaft. That was a preventable accident. We helped our injured client receive compensation for those injuries. When building owners are aware of broken locks, poorly lighted parking lots, the potential for lead paint poisoning, mold, or other conditions that make premises unsafe, they can be help accountable for the injuries caused.
- Dog owners are responsible for dog bite attacks. If a dog bit you or a loved one, talk to a personal injury attorney at our law firm.
- School buildings should be kept in safe condition. A school accident may be caused by unsafe playground equipment, broken tables and chairs, broken banisters or inadequate security.
- The public has a right to expect safe premises. When a road defect causes a highway accident, when a utility line causes serious injuries or when a construction site does not adhere to safety standards, talk to a premises liability lawyer.
