Slipping on a wet floor, using a broken staircase, or even being hit by a falling sign – why do these things happen? The quick and easy answer is bad luck. However, usually, luck has nothing to do with it. Rather, the owner of the property has behaved negligently which has led to a slip, fall, or worse.
The owner of a property or anyone who oversees a property is generally required to ensure that the property is safe. If that person fails to demonstrate appropriate forethought and planning to protect visitors and an injury occurs, he or she can be considered negligent. This is cause for a premises liability case.

In your case, it must be proven that a property owner should have recognized the existing or potential danger present on his or her property. It must also be established that the owner failed to use sufficient and clear warnings to protect others from danger. Of course, after an injury, you will want to focus on healing rather than tackle this immense legal undertaking.
Therefore, having a lawyer to assist you is invaluable. Your attorney can collect, organize, and present your evidence. He or she can fight your case, and you can focus on getting healthy again. Hiring an experienced lawyer increases your chances of receiving the maximum possible for your claim.

Many accidents involving an injury are connected to negligence. This is especially true when the accident occurs on someone else’s property. The following are a few of the most common examples of personal injury accidents:
Slip-and-fall accidents are among the most common premises liability cases. These incidents can happen abruptly and cause serious injury.
A spilled liquid, a sidewalk with snow and ice, or flooring material that is not properly installed can all cause a slip-and-fall injury. It’s possible to sustain a broken bone, back injury, head injury, or another serious injury with long-term effects.
Brain injuries, broken bones, and other severe traumas can happen when an object falls from above and strike a person. It could be that a worker drops something from above, shelves are stacked carelessly, or a sign is not mounted properly. In these events and others, it could be that negligence on the part of the property owner is at the root of the problem.
Falling either forward or backward on stairs can result in a severe injury. The incident could have been contributed to by debris or residue on the stairs which obviously can lead to tripping, stumbling, or slipping. What’s more, poor lighting, missing or broken handrails, and unmaintained staircases with broken steps can all cause serious injuries on stairs.
Andrew graduated from law school in 2017, completed and passed the Kentucky Bar Examination, and then launched his career as a lawyer working at Hughes & Coleman. In his years as an attorney, he has witnessed the underhanded tactics insurance companies use to coerce injured victims into taking a lower settlement than they deserve. Far too often, the initial insurance offer barely accounts for the personal loss that a client currently feels, and it certainly doesn’t project or account for the additional loss they will have to manage for the remainder of their life.
Accidents involving electrocution can be grave. The need for adequate signage warning of the danger is crucial. Sufficient and conspicuous signage is of paramount importance in locations where wiring or electrical current could be touched by children or reached by water.
A property owner with a swimming pool, pond, or similar water sources must use adequate precautionary measures to prevent unsupervised swimming or entry into any present water sources. Unfortunately, swimming pools and similar items can attract trespassers who can injure themselves or drown.
