San Diego Slip and Fall Attorney
While many people think of slip and fall injuries as trivial, The Law Offices of Mark Blane recognizes that they can be very serious. Broken hips, head injuries, fractured bones and back injuries are not uncommon in slip and fall accidents. When these injuries are caused by negligent maintenance or by foreign objects on the premises, property owners are liable for medical bills, rehabilitation costs, pain and suffering, and lost wages associated with the injury. When property owners provide inadequate warning of dangerous conditions on their property, they are responsible for injuries that result from that failure to provide warning of dangerous conditions.
Slip and fall or trip and fall accidents can happen in a variety of different locations and be caused by numerous dangerous conditions.
The following are common slip and fall scenarios:
- Wet floors at a supermarket caused by broken or spilled product
- Items falling from high shelves
- Hazards, such as slippery floors or broken sidewalks, not properly marked
- Weak or broken stairs and stair rails
- Potholes
- Poor lighting or broken light bulbs
