Small Hazards Can Lead to Big Injuries
On a recent visit to a friend’s new office, Attorney Olivia Miller noticed a raised edge between the driveway and the front door. Before taking a tour of the office, Ms. Miller pulled her friend aside and pointed out the hazard, and suggested it be painted or outlined so clients wouldn’t trip.
It’s often the small and seemingly minimal hazards that are overlooked. These issues may seem insignificant, but they can have considerable effects. Tripping and falling over a foreseeable hazard can cause serious injury.
Many times business owners overlook the hazards on their properties. A small crack on a sidewalk can spread or a minuscule pothole can grow into a large one.
These issues should be addressed and corrected as soon as possible. When they’re not fixed the property owner is likely responsible for the dangerous conditions and any injuries caused by them.
If you’ve been injured in a fall caused by an overlooked hazard, then you need to seek medical attention. Your recovery and any lost wages or expenses you had to pay out of pocket need to be reimbursed by that business.
