They Didn’t Salt the Sidewalk. Now You Are Hurt
You walk into a store to grab some milk. On your way in, you slip on a patch of ice right in front of the door. You land hard. Your back hurts, or maybe you broke a wrist.
Is that just bad luck? Usually, no.
Business owners have a job to do. They must keep their property safe for customers. That means shoveling snow and putting down salt. If they knew about the ice (or should have known) and did nothing, that is called negligence.
The National Safety Council reports that falls are a leading cause of preventable injury in the United States. Many of these happen because a property owner was lazy or cheap.
We help people who were injured because a business didn't care enough to clear a safe path. You shouldn't have to pay medical bills because they didn't buy a bag of salt.
