Injuries From Walkway And Curb Defects
Sidewalks are open to the public and anyone who uses a walkway has an expectation under the law that it conforms to local building codes and is maintained in safe condition. In reality, many sidewalks are in dangerous condition — cracks or potholes, raised or uneven concrete, slippery with debris or water.
Our proven trial lawyers can determine if the property owner, building manager, or municipal entity is legally responsible for slipping or tripping injuries resulting from dangerous:
- Sidewalks or storefronts
- Concrete steps or ramps
- Curbs or cut-ins
- Biking or jogging paths
- Bike lanes or street shoulders
- Areas under construction
- parking lots
Property owners have a duty to inspect, maintain and repair unsafe conditions in a timely manner, or to rope off the area or otherwise warn people. We hold private entities and municipalities accountable for serious or permanent injuries from sidewalk accidents.
