Representing Victims of Auto and Trip-and-Fall Accidents
Potholes and sinkholes in sidewalks and parking lots may seem like minor nuisances most of the time. But when property owners do not repair or warn against them, they can cause major headaches, causing serious accidents, such as the following:
- Auto accidents: A driver who accidentally drives into a serious pothole or sinkhole can lose control of his or her vehicle, potentially resulting in a collision with a parked car. Potholes and sinkholes can also cause serious property damage to cars.
- Trip-and-fall accidents: When potholes and sinkholes are hidden from view by darkness and other factors, people can trip on them and fall. These falls can have serious consequences, including broken bones and head injuries.
In order to obtain fair compensation from a property owner, your lawyer will need to move quickly to document the defect and file your claim. If you have been injured in any type of pothole or sinkhole accident, don't hesitate to contact my office to schedule an appointment.
