Savannah Slip and Fall Injury Lawyers

Slip and Fall (Premises Liability)
Savannah trial attorneys Bobby Phillips and Mandy Roberts have handled personal injury cases for 25 years. They have successfully sued commercial entities, apartment building owners and other private property owners in a variety of cases:
- Construction defects — We have seen severe injuries from falls caused by missing handrails, unexpected drop-offs, or stair treads and risers not uniform in height or not built to code. Shoddy construction often results from shortcuts taken by the landlord or property manager, but we have also sued builders and architects for negligence.
- Slick surfaces — A store or restaurant is not liable for every spill. However, we have won damages for freshly waxed floors without caution cones, leaking coolers that created puddles, or spills that were ignored for an extended period of time.
- Poor maintenance — You may have a case for injuries resulting from broken steps, torn carpets, missing stairwell lights or other dangers which the property owner should have repaired.
Code violations, formal complaints, past lawsuits and maintenance records all are fair game if you were injured in a slip and fall or trip and fall. If we can prove that the owner knew or should have known of the safety hazard, you may be entitled to recover money for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
