Slip, Trip, and Falls

Owners of any type of property, from apartment buildings to grocery stores and everything in between, have the reasonable expectation to keep their place safe for those who reside in or visit it. When that expectation is not met, it can lead to serious personal injury or wrongful death. If you or a loved one has been hurt in a slip and fall, trip and fall, stair falling accident, or other accident caused by the negligence of a property owner, an experienced attorney can help.

The most common form of premises liability case involves a slip and fall. These may involve spilled food in a grocery store, a puddle from a ceiling leak in a restaurant, boxes left in the aisle of a department store, or a wide variety of other matters in which the obstruction was not properly cleaned up or warned about. Such accidents can lead to serious lower back injury or other harm.

Another type of accident involves staircases. On most staircases, a handrail should be provided. The handrail will be easy to grip and not just a board nailed onto a wall. Additionally, the steps should be properly constructed, with no steps missing, and the stairway should be safe to use. In many apartment buildings, schools, or other places where people live, work, or visit, we see that these safety precautions are not followed, which can lead to a severe long-term injury or wrongful death.
