PREMISES
LIABILITY
At Paris & Chaikin, PLLC, we handle all types of premises liability
cases ranging from defective sidewalks, crosswalks, streets, pathways
and stairways to improperly and negligently maintained private residences,
commercial buildings, industrial buildings, parking lots and parks.
Trip and fall accidents generally occur as a result of the property
owner’s failure to maintain the premises safe and free of any defective
and hazardous conditions which could result in an accident. If,
for any reason, a hazard exists at a premises, a visible warning
must be posted. If inadequate property maintenance or failure to
warn of a dangerous condition results in a trip and fall injury,
the victim may seek damages against the property owner.
Individuals face trip and fall hazards daily. Sidewalks, stairs,
buildings, parking lots, roads, and even private residences may
have defective conditions which could and will cause a trip and
fall accident. Garbage and debris as well as wet floors cause injuries
to may pedestrians who fail to make a claim for their injuries.
Though we all have a duty to look where we are walking, property
owners and businesses are in the best position to prevent an accident
by simply properly maintaining their premises.
Our firm understands how the negligence of others causes and contributes
to trip and fall accidents which ultimately injure innocent pedestrians.
Don’t let a rich property owner get away without compensating you
for your injuries.
You claim may be subject to statutory time restraints that require
immediate attention. Contact us immediately if you or a loved one
