Slip and Fall, Premises Liability
Fair compensation for slip-and-fall, unsafe premises injuries
Premises liability cases can be difficult to prove, but the injuries can be serious. For that reason, it is a good idea to contact a personal injury lawyer who has strong investigative experience as well as proven trial experience. At Sieben & Cotter, we are experienced trial lawyers, who know how to gather and document evidence and how to take that evidence to trial and present a compelling case to a jury. In premises liability cases, those are essential skills.
Premises liability, when a property owner’s negligence causes serious injury
- Dog bites as well as dog knock-downs and other dog attacks can inflict serious and long-lasting physical and psychological injuries
- Slip-and-fall and trip-and-fall accidents caused by dangerous premises require thorough investigations into the accidents
- Poor lighting or poor security can contribute to injuries from dangerous falls, vicious assaults and robberies
- A missing handrail, a negligently placed object or a poorly maintained landscape can create dangerous premises and serious injuries
Owners are responsible for maintaining safe premises
In premises liability cases, we work closely with our clients and their families to learn what caused the accident, what the injuries were, and how those injuries have changed the lives of the victims and their families.
Compensation you may receive
