Slip and Fall Accidents

Businesses, homeowners, landlords, property owners, and local, city and state governments all are responsible to keep their properties reasonably safe, including driveways and sidewalks. This means that they must remove ice and snow, clean up spills, fix torn carpeting, display warning signs and take other necessary safety measures when floors, sidewalks, stairways and other areas are slippery or otherwise dangerous. In addition, property owners must use proper lighting, and must design and maintain their properties so that they comply with all laws and regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act, building codes, and other safety standards. All property owners must use reasonable care to keep their property safe.

If you have been injured as a result of a dangerous condition of a property, you may be entitled to compensation for your pain and suffering, wage losses and other damages, and should contact the attorneys at the law offices of Jaime E. Suarez, P.A.
