Premises Liability - Slip and fall
Many personal injury claims result from unsafe or negligently cared-for premises. Accidents caused by unsafe property conditions can occur practically anywhere, from restaurants to stores to public sidewalks to personal residences, and may involve:
- Slips and falls caused by spills, uneven pavement or flooring, damaged steps and/or handrails, or poorly maintained ice-covered walkways
- Falling objects, such as shelved merchandise, hanging signs, or tree branches
- Falls from heights, such as scaffolding or ladders
- Dangerous chemical exposure
- Dog bites and animal attacks
- Inadequate lighting in parking structures, garages, or stairwells that result in injury
Questions regarding coverage, responsible parties and the relationship between injuries and incidents occurring on insured properties can be confusing, and such questions can deter injured people from pursuing deserved and needed awards for damages. Our knowledgeable attorneys can help investigate these issues to determine whether you may have a claim.
