Premises Liability
Injuries on property are some of the most common injuries we see at the INJURY LAW GROUP. Injuries resulting from accidents on property give rise to what is known in the law as “premises liability.” Premises liability must be analyzed through a complex maze of law from both statutes and case law. These cases are best handled by a team of experienced attorneys. We at the INJURY LAW GROUP are Legal Lions, and our team of attorneys and staff is our “pride.” A brief overview of the many different accidents and injuries that can happen on property shows that these issues require such a team approach.
Slip and Fall
Anyone who has grown up in Michigan knows the climate can be hard on sidewalks. The cold weather makes the sidewalks buckle and crack. The resulting hazards can cause slip and fall accidents. The climate in Michigan can also result in icy conditions. Sometimes, the ice can be in the treacherous form of “black ice” – ice that is virtually invisible.
But it is not just the climate that can cause slips and falls. Faulty railings, defective stairs, littered walking areas and other problems can all result in slip and fall accidents. These problems can be worsened if the property owner does not light his property properly. If you have been injured in a slip and fall due to these conditions, we should be your first choice as your Michigan slip and fall attorney for your slip and fall injury claim and lawsuit.
Fires and Furnaces
The climate in Michigan also means homes need furnaces. Defective furnaces can be a fire hazard in addition to the normal such hazards in homes, such as faulty wiring and code violations. Defective furnaces can also be a source of carbon monoxide poisoning. These conditions can result in severe smoke inhalation, burns and brain damage.
These are but a few of the many accidents and injuries that can happen on property. As you can see, there are building codes and statutes to analyze, product defects to consider and many other issues. “Slip and fall” may sound simple, but premises liability is actually a complex area of law. Whatever your accident or injury, the insurance company for the property owner will go to work immediately to try to keep your recovery to a minimum. You need an experienced and aggressive team of Michigan premises liability lawyers on your side, to analyze the necessary issues and cover all the bases.
