Personal Injury/Liability — Falls Due to Unsafe Conditions
A serious fall is no laughing matter. In fact, such a fall can cause serious and life-altering injuries. Falls are the second-leading cause of injury in America behind auto accidents. Each year, more than a million people suffer injuries from falls caused by a slip or trip. Common falls include same-level falls, which can involve slippery surfaces, a hole or object in the walking path, or poor lighting. A second type - an elevated-level fall - involves stairs, ladders and other structures where the injured person falls down from a height. Either type of fall can cause serious injuries to the back, wrist, elbow, shoulder, ankle, knee, hip and other joints, as well as injuries to the brain and other internal organs. Sometimes, the owner of the property where the fall occurred bears some responsibility, and can be held legally liable, for it. Was the owner aware of a dangerous situation or condition and failed to do anything about it? In such cases, it takes an experienced attorney to advise you of your legal rights. If you or a loved one has been injured in a fall, contact HKQ today for a FREE consultation. Don't wait. Waiting to talk to us could jeopardize your legal rights. |
