Indianapolis Premises Liability Attorneys

Slip and fall accidents can occur in anytime, and in any environment, on slick surfaces, as the result of spills, or on uneven surfaces. Premises liability accidents may not seem like a serious issue, but in the U.S., slip and falls are one of the top causes of unintentional injury and send millions of Americans to emergency rooms every year. Even more concerning, slip and falls are the second most occurring cause of unintentional death, and in 2009, over 25,000 Americans died as a result of a slip and fall accident.

As a result, businesses and landowners have a responsibility to make their property safe for guests, customers and anyone who may pass through their premises. Accidents often are the result of loose rugs or floor mats, untreated ice, snow, standing water, loose gravel, cords, and many other types of hazards on the ground, and these slip and fall accidents often result in serious injury.
