People have responsibilities no matter where they are at. If you own a business then you have a responsibility to keep the premises safe. If you own a home and have people over for a meeting, party, or other event, you have a responsibility to make sure your home is safe and free of dangerous conditions. If you are the victim of a slip and fall, YOU have a responsibility to contact Daniel and see if the law affords you a remedy for the injury you have suffered because of someone else’s negligent actions or omissions.
One of the most common premises liability cases is the slip and fall. Slip and fall cases occur all time to people ranging from little children to the elderly. Slip and fall cases typically occur at a business. Imagine you are walking through a large grocery, department, or other store and your body goes crashing to the floor without warning. As pain seeps into your skin, permeating your bones, you notice that there is a large puddle surrounding you. Someone spilled something, and nobody at the business or store cleaned it up. Business owners and their employees have a duty to keep their premises free of danger and to maintain reasonably safe conditions. A simple wet floor sign can sometimes prove sufficient. However, this business was either incompetent or lazy. Either way, this business has been negligent and should be liable for you injury. You may have broken your hand. You may have hurt your back. These injuries are even more significant if you work with your hands or if you have to stand on your feet at work for long periods of time. The physical affects of the injury are only half the battle. How will your injury affect your job and daily life?
One question you may have is what kind of compensation can I receive in my slip and fall or other premises liability case? Good question. The most important recovery to consider is your medical bills. Daniel Monahan will look at your documentation and determine whether your medical bills are recoverable. Additionally, you may be able to get compensation for future medical bills, money for pain and suffering, recovery for your current lost wages and perhaps, future lost wages. Daniel Monahan will review the facts of your case, determine who is responsible for your injury, and advise you accordingly to get you the fair compensation you deserve.
Many people think that slip and fall cases are trivial. In theory, and if it has never happened to you, it may seem trivial. However, a husband or wife who has broken their leg, hand, or hurt their back because a business failed to keep the premises free of danger deserves compensation. Through no fault of their own, they and their families are set back physically and financially. Victims should not just have to sit back and accept their loss. Businesses profit from your presence in their establishment. You are not simply a casualty of business. The law will determine whether you deserve compensation for your injury.
There are other types of common premises liability cases. The reason why there are so many different types of slip and fall cases is, generally, people do not take the extra time to make sure their premises are free from dangerous conditions. Slip and fall cases arise inside businesses, outside businesses in the parking lot, inside people’s homes, and outside people’s homes in their yard, at their pool, or during their get together.
