Slip + Falls

A severe slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall accident can strike anyone. Elderly people are especially susceptible to injuries that may result in a serious loss of function or independence. In fact, falls are the leading cause of injuries to the elderly.

Property owners or renters need to take reasonable steps to ensure that their premises are reasonably safe. Failure to do so will result in liability for injuries sustained on their premises. Legal claims have arisen out of a range of dangerous conditions, including:

Defective or broken stairs, inadequately lighting, or faulty construction or maintenance, missing or insufficient railings
Uneven concrete sidewalks
Slippery surfaces in stores, restaurants or other commercial venues

An early investigation
