Chicago Lawyers: Dangerous Commercial Property
Every business has an obligation to keep its property reasonably safe. In fact, businesses have a higher standard of safety to meet than do owners of private property. If they fail to properly maintain their property and someone is injured, the business can be held financially responsible for injuries caused by the dangerous property conditions.
At Lane & Lane LLC, in Chicago, Illinois, our attorneys represent people who have been injured on all kinds of dangerous commercial property, including:
- Retail stores
- Shopping malls
- Grocery stores
- Big box retailers
- Apartment buildings
- Office buildings
- Restaurants
- Hotels and motels
- Parking ramps and lots
- Construction sites
- Airports
- Railroad stations
- Streets and sidewalls
Falls and Falling Objects
Slip and fall accidents are among the most common type of injury that occurs on commercial property. We represent clients who have fallen on spilled merchandise in stores, slipped on wet surfaces, ice and tripped over uneven pavement or turned-up rugs.
Other types of injuries on commercial property involved falling objects. When merchandise falls from a store shelf, a hotel room television falls from a shelf or construction supplies fall onto passersby, the property owner is liable.
Safety and Security
Inadequate lighting and inadequate attention to security can result in assaults, sexual assaults and homicide. If you or your loved one was injured because inadequate safety and security measures contributed to a violent attack, we will pursue financial compensation for your medical bills, pain and suffering, rehabilitation expenses and lost wages or income.
