Car Accidents

Accidents Happen...

Oftentimes they are completely out of your control. With the increasing congestion on our roads and highways, the chances that you will be involved in a motor vehicle accident increase every year. Even the safest drivers are at risk. Inattentive drivers, people driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol, and those who simply make careless mistakes create dangerous driving conditions that can lead to serious accidents.

While you may not have control over whether or not an accident happens...

You can protect your rights by hiring an experienced Philadelphia accident lawyer. Contact our office for a free consultation.

Sorting through insurance coverage and applicable policies can be a frustrating part of an auto accident claim.

We have experience working with various types of insurance including:

  • Full Tort
  • Limited tort
  • Uninsured Motorist
  • Underinsured Motorist

Slip and Fall Accidents

Slip and fall accidents occur
on a daily basis.

They fall under the legal category known as premises liability. When property owners fail to keep their buildings, parking lots and walkways safe and secure, they create a risk of injury. In some situations, landlords and property owners must maintain safety standards based on codes set forth by the local government. Failing to do so can make them responsible for the injuries you suffer as a result of violations of these safety standards. As a customer in a store or shopping center, a resident in a building, or a pedestrian on the street, you are at risk everyday of becoming injured as a result of a property owner's negligence. While these accidents cause particularly grievous injuries for the elderly and disabled, they can happen to anyone of any age.

Some common slip and fall injuries
occur when:

  • Snow and ice accumulate on sidewalks, parking lots and roadways.
  • Stairways are left slippery, broken, poorly lit, or without proper railings.
  • Roads and sidewalks are broken, have holes, or are unevenly paved.
  • Poorly maintained carpets and rugs cause unexpected trips and slips.
  • Stores and markets fail to clean up after spills or other debris.
