Injuries that occur while visiting a residence or business are common. These injuries are typically caused by poor maintenance conditions, failure to provide notice of a defective or dangerous situation, or failure to remedy a defective condition within a reasonable period of time.
These cases are often very contentious and require the help of an experienced personal injury attorney to reach resolution. Whether the injury occurred on commercial or residential property, we have the litigation experience to maximize your chances of receiving compensation.
Premise owners have a responsibility to provide a safe environment to anyone who is invited onto or could be present on their property. The owners can be held liable if you have been hurt due to unsafe conditions such as improperly maintained sidewalks, potholes, falling objects, inadequate lighting, uneven walking surfaces, faulty fencing or locks, faulty drains, dangerous animals, or a number of other possible failures to provide a safe premise. It’s critical when filing a premises liability claim to have aggressive representation. We provide powerful legal guidance through the claims process if you have been injured on private, public, commercial, or government property.
Thousands of people are injured each year after suffering a fall due to wet surfaces, poorly maintained stairs, or improperly planned public spaces. Building and residence owners have an obligation to maintain their spaces to a reasonable level that the typical person would not slip and fall on their premises. Determining if the property owner is at fault can be complicated and difficult to prove. Our experienced attorneys can help you weigh your options and defend your case to ensure compensation.
Dogs are prized pets who most often bring joy to our lives. However, an improperly trained or vicious dog can cause serious injury to adults and children alike. It is the responsibility of the dog’s owner to ensure their dog does not cause harm to others. When a dog bites a person, he or she can typically recover full compensation from the dog owner’s homeowners or renters insurance policy. If you have been injured by a dog or other pet you may be entitled to compensation for your medical costs, as well as pain and suffering. Our team can help you prove fault and recover the money you deserve.
