New Jersey Slip-and-Fall Cases
Provided by our New Jersey Personal Injury Attorney, Mark S. Guralnick
It is true that some people are klutzes. Some people trip over their own shoe laces or they fall down because they are not paying attention to where they were walking. In many cases, however, a person is caused to slip and fall for reasons completely outside of their control. A New Jersey personal injury lawyer at the Law Offices of Mark S. Guralnick may be able to help you determine the reason for your fall and injuries. For example, when a store or a public building has a wet floor and fails to warn you about it, the owner or maintenance supervisor for that property may be responsible for your injuries and your losses. Likewise, if you slip and fall on a pavement outside a residence following a snowy day, the homeowners may be responsible for their negligence in failing to clear a proper path for you. Bad maintenance is often to blame for slip and fall injuries. Often, businesses, homeowners, and other building owners fail to clear debris from their stairways, walkways, and floor surfaces. Failing to give proper warnings, to install railings, and proper lighting, where necessary, and to make the premises safe leads to painful injuries, missed time from work and other financial losses.
