Injury Due to Dangerous Condition on Private Property
The Law Office of Michael D. Waks is experienced in handling injuries that occur from a dangerous condition on private property.
Accidents that occur as a result of a dangerous condition on private property are referred to as "premises liability" cases. Accidents that occur from a dangerous condition on private property have traditionally involved "slip and fall" or "trip and fall" types of cases.
However, they may include, among other things:
- Stairs and handrails not built to code;
- Store displays that fall on customers;
- Inadequately fenced swimming pools;
- Poorly maintained apartments, houses, stores or other businesses;
- Construction accidents;
- Defective and/or inoperative lighting on private property;
- Failure to warn of hazardous conditions on private property;
- Injuries caused by the negligent or willful conduct of third persons on the premises involved.
To protect your legal rights following severe injury or wrongful death resulting from a dangerous condition on private property, it is wise to immediately consult The Law Office of Michael D. Waks to protect your rights. The retention of the appropriate expert is essential and must be done immediately to insure the preservation of evidence before it is lost, destroyed, or in many cases, subsequently repaired by the defendant. If repairs occur before the accident scene is properly inspected, examined, measured and photographed, your case may be destroyed.
