Serious Injuries Can Result From a Michigan Slip and Fall Accident

Hundreds of people are injured everyday due to someone else's negligence. Whether it is from a Michigan slip and fall accident, trip and fall accident, dog bite, falling objects, or falling on someone's dangerous property - these common accidents could give rise to a premises liability case if the victim suffers from physical injury.

Michigan premises liability law indicates that if there is evidence to establish the property owner knew about the dangerous condition and didn't take action to fix the problem, he or she could be found negligent and held liable for the victim's injuries. For example, if a landlord or property owner knew about the broken stairs, poor lighting in the stairwell, or a gap/crack in the ground on their property and someone fell and was injured due to any of these dangerous conditions, the landowner or the property owner may be held responsible for the victim's injuries.

Not all premises liability cases are slip and fall cases. A Michigan dog bite or animal attack could be the fault of the animal's owners.  According to a 2001 study by the Center for Disease and Control, 368,245 people were treated in emergency rooms in 2001 alone from dog bites. People who get bit by a dog will probably need medical treatment for their injuries. Injuries resulting from dog bites commonly include: nerve damage, severe scaring, permanent psychological damage, and infection. Our experienced Michigan injury attorneys at The Thurswell Law Firm recently received a successful $1 Million settlement for their client who was bitten by a dog because the animal's owner failed to cage the dog.
