Illinois Stairway Accident Lawyer

Stairway accidents can result in serious injuries, such as sprains, fractures, cuts, bruises and injuries to the head, neck and back. Lake County stairway accident attorney at Bogdan Martinovich is more than 35 years of experience representing clients in a wide variety of personal injury matters, including slip and fall incidents and stairway accidents.

Slip and fall accidents taking place on a stairway can happen for a variety of reasons, including:

  • Slippery surfaces
  • Poorly designed steps or railings
  • Poorly maintained steps or railings
  • Dangerous or missing railings or guardrails
  • Improper lighting
  • Obstructions in the stairway

Property owners can be held liable for injuries that occur on their property under the principle of premises liability. Premises liability creates liability if the property owner or property manager failed to meet their legal obligations to maintain the property and inform the public of any dangerous situations. Municipal building codes, such as the Chicago Building Code, also place standards on property owners for the design and maintenance of stairways.

The laws governing stairway accidents, such as premises liability theories, involve complex legal issues.  Victims of stairway accidents have an obligation to exercise a certain degree of care to protect themselves.  Property owners may attempt to escape liability by claiming that he or she was unable to correct the dangerous condition. Accordingly, victims of stairway accidents and other slip and fall accidents should consult with an Illinois personal injury attorney that is experienced handling premises liability cases such as stairway accidents.
