Trip And Fall / Slip And Fall Accidents

An injury can occur from many types of slip and fall and trip and fall incidents. The lawyers at the Philadelphia, PA personal injury law firm of Levin & Zeiger LLP understand that the most common cases of slip and fall and trip and fall occur when someone falls on a property because of a foreign substance. Regardless, property owners are responsible for injuries that occur because of a dangerous or hazardous condition on their property that the owner (or person or company possessing or using the property) knew about, or should have known about. Some defects are obvious, such as a broken step on a stairway, while others, such as black ice, are less apparent. In either situation, the property owner, landlord, or tenant was required to take reasonable steps to inspect the premises and to assure that it was safe for visitors. When they fail to take those steps, property owners, landlords, tenants and others who control the premises are responsible when people slip and fall.

At Levin & Zeiger, LLP, we handle cases involving slip and fall injuries aggressively. Many of these cases require immediate investigation and experts who can go to the properties and determine the type of defect, what caused it, and how it can or should have been fixed or designed. We know that prompt action can be difference between winning and losing or between a large settlement or a small one. That is why, at Levin & Zeiger, LLP, our Pennsylvania and New Jersey personal injury attorneys investigate every claim and aggressively and zealously represent our clients in order to obtain the best possible results.

We also recognize that slip and fall accidents often cause serious traumatic head or neck injuries, or back injuries, and we work with our clients, their families and friends, as well as their doctors to keep their cases moving smoothly, and to be certain that they receive compensation for all of their injuries.
