Lawyer for Slip and Fall Accidents, Negligent Security, and More in Leesburg, Virginia

Personal Injury Dog Bite Injuries Catastrophic Injuries Wrongful Death

When property owners welcome other people onto their premises, they have a legal obligation to protect the visitors' safety. This means that they must take all reasonable steps to address any hazards that could lead to accidents or injuries, including performing repairs or providing warnings about the risks that people may face. When a store, business, or private homeowner fails to address hazards on their property, they may be held responsible for accidents or injuries that occur.

At Whitlock Law, we help injury victims in Leesburg, Virginia take action to address the negligence of property owners and recover compensation for their medical costs, lost income, and other damages. We can gather evidence showing that the conditions on a property were unsafe and that an injury occurred because of a property owner's negligence. We will negotiate with insurance companies or take other steps to ensure that full compensation will be paid for a victim's damages.

Slip and Fall Accidents in Leesburg

Falls are some of the most common causes of injuries when people are visiting property owned by others. A person who loses their footing and falls down may suffer serious harm, and they can take steps to determine who was responsible and recover compensation for their damages. Slip and fall or trip and fall accidents may occur due to issues such as:

Wet or Slippery Floors: Tile, linoleum, or concrete floors can become very slippery when they are wet. Floors may be wet due to spills, because they were mopped recently, or because of rain or snow that has been tracked in through doorways. If warning signs are not provided to make sure people are aware of slipping hazards, slip and fall accidents may occur.
Uneven Surfaces: There are multiple issues that can create tripping hazards. In outdoor areas, sidewalks may be cracked, or parking lots may have potholes. Indoor areas may be hazardous due to torn carpets, loose floor tiles, or obstacles such as extension cords or loose merchandise in the aisles of a store. Customers or visitors who are unaware of these hazards may trip and suffer fall injuries.
Poor Lighting: Tripping hazards can become more dangerous if people are unable to recognize them. When the proper lighting is not provided in stairwells, parking lots, or hallways, visitors will be more likely to trip and fall.

Fall accidents can lead to multiple types of injuries, ranging from sprains and fractures to traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord damage. Elderly people are often at a higher risk of being injured in falls, and the harm they suffer can be more severe due to frail health.

Relentless in pursuit. Committed to the fight.

Other Types of Premises Liability Cases

Issues that can lead to injuries when people are visiting property owned by others include:

Negligent Security: Property owners have a duty to provide adequate security to protect the safety of visitors. At locations such as apartment complexes, hotels, or event venues, a failure to address foreseeable criminal activity may lead to assaults, robberies, or other violent acts that harm visitors.
Swimming Pool Accidents: Drownings or near-drowning incidents may occur when pools lack proper fencing, warning signs, or supervision. Property owners may be held responsible for failing to safeguard guests or prevent children from accessing a pool without supervision.
Dog Bites: The owner of a dog or another animal may be held liable if their pet attacks someone. Victims of dog attacks may suffer injuries such as puncture wounds, lacerations, nerve damage, infections, disfigurement, and emotional trauma.
Falling Objects or Structural Failures: In retail stores or other locations, objects that fall from shelves can injure people walking below. Issues such as collapsing balconies, loose ceiling tiles, or damaged handrails can also lead to serious injuries for visitors.

Compensation in Premises Liability Claims

People who are injured while visiting property owned by others may be able to recover compensation from the property owner or another party who was in control of the property. The damages that may be available in these cases include:

Medical Expenses: A victim's bills for hospital treatment, surgeries, physical therapy, and future medical care should be fully covered.
Lost Wages: A person can receive compensation that will address the income they have lost due to time missed from work during their recovery.
Reduced Earning Capacity: When an injury leads to permanent disabilities or impairments that limit a person's ability to return to their previous occupation or find employment in other fields, they may be compensated for the loss of future earnings.
Pain and Suffering: In recognition of the physical pain and emotional distress caused by a serious injury, additional compensation may be awarded.

Our considerable experience and focus on personal injury law can give you a significant advantage, because we will use our knowledge and skills to protect your best interests. If insurers do not offer full compensation through settlement negotiations, Attorney Whitlock is a force to be reckoned with in the courtroom.
