Automobile accidents aren’t the only causes of injuries for passengers in cars. One of the places many people don’t think about as a potentially hazardous place for passengers is a parking lot or a parking garage.
It isn’t only other vehicles that present a problem. Poorly maintained surfaces, spills of slippery fluids, like engine lubricants or brake fluid, can create puddles that can lead to a nasty slip and fall. Potholes, cracks or buckling pavement are potential trip and fall hazards. Parking lots that aren’t cleared properly in the winter are another problem. The hazards presented by all of these problems become elevated when poor lighting is taken into consideration.
The Bronx personal injury law firm of Feiner & Lavy has seen how slip and fall accidents can end up, and it’s often a painful story. The kind of injuries that can possibly occur in parking lots and garages can be very tricky to recover from – like broken elbows or spiral leg fractures. These take a long time to heal and may require surgery to mend a bone or repair ligaments, and some people never regain full mobility. And it’s not just severe bone breaks, but injuries to knees that are the result of a twisting motion can lead to reconstructive knee surgery and possibly knee replacement.
It is an expensive proposition to treat injuries like these. When you add up the costs of surgery, hospital stay, doctors’ visits, physical rehabilitation, prescription medication and possible psychological counseling, you are into tens of thousands of dollars. Then you have to take into account that you are going to lose wages and opportunities in your work, and you will likely lose out on the enjoyment of your life for a significant period of time. There are other costs that need to be calculated before you even know what kind of settlement you should be pursuing.
But the operator of the parking lot or garage will probably try to stop you from doing this. They will dispatch an attorney, who will tell you that an “at your own risk” sign means that you can’t recover damages. If that doesn’t scare you, they will be “generous” and make you a low-ball offer to try to settle your claim and make you go away for good.
Don’t fall for tricks like these! Those “at your own risk” signs can be tossed out by judges, and those low-ball offers aren’t close to a starting point. As a firm that is committed to fighting for your injury, Feiner & Lavy will investigate the case and will vigorously pursue the maximum settlement for your expenses, your losses, and your pain and suffering.
As one of the best Bronx personal injury law firms, Feiner & Lavy knows that if you are hurt in a slip and fall accident, you need to talk to a lawyer. Don’t take that settlement until you call Feiner & Lavy! The experience and knowledge accumulated during many decades of combined experience representing personal injury cases and the broad range of capabilities we have developed during our years in practice are the keys that enable us to successfully win you the settlement you deserve.
