Were You Injured in a Trip-and-Fall Accident?
As a San Francisco and San Mateo premises liability attorney, Linda Ross is educated about the measures property owners can take to prevent dangerous conditions. For example, property owners should ensure that walking surfaces are even, stairways have handrails and adequate lighting exists in all walking areas. Our law firm is knowledgeable about the ways these safety measures are overlooked and the many types of injuries that people can sustain.
We handle trip-and-fall and slip-and-fall injuries arising from:
- Uneven treads and risers on improperly designed stairs
- Inadequate handrails/no handrails
- Code violations
- Construction defects
- Poorly maintained sidewalks
- Uneven pavement
If you are able, take pictures of the hazard. It is not uncommon for the property owner to attempt to cover up the hazardous condition after the accident.
We also handle spills in grocery stores, restaurants and other businesses. These cases can be difficult, because it must be proven that the management neglected a known hazard or falsified cleaning logs. We were successful in a slip-and-fall claim against Safeway. Our California law firm proved that the store did not have enough employees on duty to comply with maintenance and safety inspection regulations.
The Law Offices of Linda Ross seeks fair compensation for injuries sustained in trips, slips and falls such as:
- Broken bones and fractures
- Head injuries
- Back injuries
- Face/dental injuries
- Brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
We have also handled wrongful death lawsuits for fatal trip-and-fall accidents.
