An estimated 300,000 disabling injuries occur each year in the American work force, resulting in 1,400 worker deaths. Slips, trips and falls account for 15 to 20 percent of all workers’ compensation costs.

An accident lawyer handling slip & fall lawsuits can help if you have been seriously injured. Sidewalks must be kept in a reasonably safe condition. Typical defects include potholes, raised flagstones, cracks and raised and uneven sidewalks. If an injury is sustained due to an improperly maintained sidewalk, liability may fall either on the adjoining property owner or the city, depending on local laws.
