Your Case Is Important to Us.

Slip-and-Fall Accidents Are Not a Joke

Injuries caused by tripping, slipping, or falling on poorly maintained property are not trivial. Victims of slip-and-fall accidents often suffer serious consequences for years to come. They may suffer from loss of memory and balance typical of closed head injuries, chronic back pain, and loss of function in wrists, elbows, or ankles.

Such accidents may include falls down stairs at public stadiums; falling on slippery floors or where objects are in walkways of a grocery store; tripping while walking or biking over sidewalk defects; tripping over a parking lot pothole; or falling in a poorly maintained apartment complex elevators.

Liability for Slip-and-Fall Accidents is Often Hard to Prove

Unfortunately, however, liability for slip-and-fall accidents is often hard to prove under current California law. Premises owners are often successful in camouflaging their responsibility – for example, by removing obstacles that caused someone to trip, before those obstacles can be recorded on camera.

Contact Timothy Gill

Despite the challenges involved in slip and fall injury claims, the Law Offices of Timothy Gill invites injured people to contact us.

We are also more than happy to discuss your dog bite case, injury at a construction site, or injury on an amusement park ride. These are all examples of “premises liability.”

We Understand How to Pursue a Premises Liability Case

After years of experience pursuing compensation for injured people, we understand what factors of your accident might allow us to prove that you have a premises liability case. If a merchant, landlord, or the management of an amusement park knew that dangerous conditions existed and failed to remedy them, you may have a strong case. Allow us to consider your case and give you our opinion on whether you have a clear personal injury case.

We Handle Third-Party Claims Concerning Construction Injuries

Construction site accidents are usually work-related, and therefore are best handled by Workers’ Compensation attorneys. However, we often handle third-party liability construction injury accidents in collaboration with other lawyers who deal with the Workers’ Comp issues.

Contact Us if You Were Injured Out of State

We welcome inquiries from California residents who have been injured in amusement parks or on construction sites nationwide. We have assisted people who were injured in Kansas, Kentucky, Virginia, Nevada, and other states.

The bottom line? If you were injured as a result of the negligence of a supermarket owner, building contractor, or other responsible party, contact the Law Offices of Timothy Gill. We will listen, and we can help.

We have staff who speak Spanish, Vietnamese, and Russian.
