SLIP AND FALL/DEFECTIVE PREMISES

Slip and Fall / Defective Premises

Injured On Commercial Premises? We Can Help

It’s easy to get injured on the premises of a restaurant or other business if the conditions are in disrepair and/or not up to code, or even if proper safety procedures are not followed in the normal operation of the business. A broken floorboard, lack of lighting, or nonexistent safety features could mean you end up with an injury and expensive medical bills through no fault of your own. The owner of the property where you were injured may be at fault for your injuries if they were neglecting the state of the property.

 

In order to prove such negligence, The Strafaci Law Firm, LLC will put our decades of litigation experience and our knowledge of building codes and other regulations to work for your slip and fall claim. 

Common slip & fall scenarios

Code Violations: Common causes of slip/trip and falls are lack of lighting, no guard rails on porches, lack of handrails on stairways, etc. The Strafaci Law Firm, LLC is highly knowledgeable about the many local, state, and federal regulations that dictate property conditions.

 

Defective Property Conditions: The property owner may be at fault for any injuries you sustain as a result of a property feature that is in disrepair, such as a broken or rotting floorboard.

 

Accumulation of Ice and Snow: Property owners are responsible for removing ice and snow from their premises within a reasonable timeframe after a storm has passed. If they don’t, they could be found at fault if you are injured after slipping and falling on the ice or snow.
