There is no set season for accidents. From an auto accident to a personal injury case, these accidents are happening every day, year-round. Whether you’re in Provo or the East Coast, seasons prove to bring different dangers with them. With the blistering heat coming to an end soon, fall is just around the corner—with fall comes danger from rainstorms and heavy winds.
A lawyer might not be able to help you against nature, however slip and fall accidents are also very common in the fall. If you find yourself injured because of someone else’s negligence, contact an attorney at Robert J. DeBry & Associates to investigate your case.
Here are some of scenarios where you may be able to receive compensation.
Slippery Store Floors
With the rain pouring down during the autumn months, there are going to be leaky ceilings and wet floors at every mall and every store. Employees as well as company owners should be constantly making the effort to keep their floors dry. Wet floor signs are also crucial in keeping customers and other employees safe.
If you are injured in a store due to poor floor maintenance or lack of warning, contact your local injury lawyer to file a case. You deserve compensation if you or a loved one is injured.
Leaf Hazards
Fallen leaves define fall, however they can be dangerous if not raked. Fallen leaves can hide cracks and raised cement on sidewalks, which can lead to injuries for pedestrians who are walking on that sidewalk. If someone happens to be seriously injured because of this, the homeowner may be held responsible for not clearing the sidewalk.
