Legal Help Bringing a Premises Liability Claim in Wisconsin

The phrase "slip and fall accident" doesn't seem too serious until it's happened to you. In fact, slip and fall accidents can be very serious, even fatal. Hundreds of Wisconsin residents and workers suffer back injuries and broken bones every year because of slip and fall accidents and other types of accidents in poorly maintained buildings or dangerous premises.

• Did you suffer head or neck injuries when merchandise fell on you in a warehouse store?
• Did you fall down stairs because of a frayed carpet, a broken or missing handrail, or burnt-out light bulbs in a stairwell?
• Did you slip on built-up ice around a doorway or water that pooled under a leaking ceiling?
• Were you injured by a defective elevator or a defective escalator?
• Were you assaulted in a security apartment complex that wasn't really under surveillance?
• Did your child suffer a near-drowning or a drowning in a pool that he or she should never have been able to access, but for a broken lock or missing gate?
