Fall Down Accidents / Premises Liability

Experienced New Jersey Premises Lawyers

Property owners have a responsibility to keep their premises free of obvious hazards such as slick floors, debris, snow and ice accumulation, uneven surfaces, parking lot pavement with large holes, merchandise falling from shelves, etc. Under certain circumstances they may also be responsible to protect the public from known criminal activity such as theft, known as "failure of security" cases. If they neglect such dangers, and a person becomes injured or suffers losses as a result, they are liable for the injured party's medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage and any other expenses arising from the accident.

The attorneys and staff of the Law Offices of Shelley L. Stangler, P.C. know how to help victims of such accidents receive fair compensation. Slip, fall and security injury cases, which fall under the category of personal injury law known as "premises liability," can be very serious and are often contested by shopping centers, large grocery chains, national hardware operations and other nationally operated stores and commercial businesses. Ms. Stangler has the experience and resources to take on any slip and fall case, against any opponent.

Our law firm pays the costs involved in taking these types of cases to court. Our fall down accident lawyers work on contingency, meaning that we charge clients nothing unless we win compensation for your injuries.
