Philadelphia Snow & Ice Accident Attorney
Slip and Fall Cases Due to Patches of Ice From Potholes, Cracked Sidewalks, Rain Gutters, Etc.
Have you been injured due to patches of ice from potholes, cracked sidewalks, rain gutters and melting piles of plowed or shoveled snow that is allowed to refreeze without being salted during the winter months?
Attorney Thomas Murphy has experience handling cases involving a variety of accidents due to Ice and Snow. There are a number of dangerous conditions that could potentially lead to a
slip and fall accident during the winter months in Philadelphia. Snow and Ice can hide or make it impossible to see uneven sidewalks, holes or ditches, broken stairs etc.
Property & business owners are responsible to ensure their premise is safe for customers and people passing by. Slip and fall accidents may occur due to missing warning signs regarding ice and snow, lack of salt to prevent ice on walkways, paths, and entry and exit ways, poorly maintained and salted parking lots, and failure to close off unsafe areas.
A slip and fall can result in numerous injuries, including
broken bones,
brain injuries,
paralysis, permanent disability, injuries to the back or spine, organ damage,
neck injuries, and even death. If you have suffered a serious injury in a slip and fall accident due to ice and snow, speak with an experienced
Philadelphia slip and fall attorney as soon as possible.
