When you’ve been hurt in a slip and fall accident, you want a lawyer with experience and a track record of success. Los Angeles slip and fall lawyer Sean Salamati has won substantial compensation for clients who have sustained serious, life-altering injuries as a result of falling on another person’s property. Stores and other premises owners have a duty to keep their properties free of undue trip hazards. If negligence on the part of a property owner or manager has caused your injury, contact the Salamati Law Firm immediately to learn your legal rights.
For more than two decades, we’ve developed a strong reputation for being tough litigators with grace under pressure who won’t back down from a dispute. Our track record of six-figure victories is a testament to the commitment we have to our slip and fall clients who, through little to no fault of their own, sustained injuries in sudden accidents that could have been prevented by responsible landlords.
Was A Property Owner To Blame For Your Accident?
Sometimes a slip and fall happens when a store patron comes upon a hazard that was deliberately ignored by negligent employees or falls down stairs that should have been fitted with traction strips, as per local building and safety codes.
In California, property owners are responsible for keeping their premises “reasonably” safe and free from hazards. When a landlord fails to remedy dangerous situations in a timely, efficient, and proactive way, he or she may be liable for paying an injured victim’s medical bills and lost wages, as well as an estimated amount for pain and suffering.
How To Win A Premises Liability Case
In assessing a slip and fall case, lawyers, judges, and juries ask, “What could a reasonable person have done to prevent this particular accident?” Experts in property management, insurance liability, accident prevention, workplace safety, and medical science can be retained by a law firm to build a stronger case.
Even if you’re not 100% certain what happened, you can contact our Los Angeles slip and fall lawyers to investigate the situation and the property owner’s past history of maintenance. Slips can often be traced back to accumulations of water, stairs that aren’t up to code, damaged flooring, spilled merchandise, and unmarked pools of liquid.
Poor lighting, broken handrails, cluttered walking areas, and a lack of signage warning patrons of the known risks may be deemed contributing factors to an accident.
