Property Owners Must Maintain Their Property
Property owners have an obligation to maintain their property and keep their property safe for visitors. This includes apartment buildings, hotels and businesses like restaurants, bars, malls, grocery stores and gas stations. All areas used by the public must be kept safe, including aisles, stairways, parking lots and even sidewalks in front of businesses.
Businesses have the obligation to clear ice and snow from the sidewalks, entrances and parking lots of their buildings. They must not leave obstacles or spills in walkways. They must not allow staircases and other areas to deteriorate.
Building and Safety Codes
During the investigation of trip-and-fall and slip-and-fall accidents, we often find that state or municipal building and safety codes have been violated. We frequently work with safety engineers who help us identify things like defective stairways, improper railings, faulty construction and other issues. Then we hold the property owner accountable.
No Recovery, No Fee
We take premises liability accident cases on a contingency basis. That means you will owe an attorney's fee only if we obtain compensation for you.
