Elevator Accidents: Failure to Level

Elevator Accident Attorneys-Failure to Level

Personal Injury | Elevator Accident Injuries | Failure to Level Elevator | Tripping Injuries | Falls

An elevator generally offers a safe and convenient way to get to and from different floors in a high rise, whether at an apartment, a commercial building or a construction site. However, if the elevator is not properly installed or maintained, and the floor of the elevator does not level with the outside floor when it stops, passengers can be at risk for significant injury. When you have been injured in a trip and fall due to an improperly leveled elevator, you want an experienced personal injury attorney to help you pursue full and fair compensation for all your losses.

At Blackman Legal Group, we have dedicated our practice to protecting the rights of personal injury victims since 1977. We blend knowledge and experience with meticulous preparation, painstakingly investigating every aspect of your claim. We carefully explain the law and process, as well as your options and likelihood of success, so that you always have realistic expectations. As a result, our attorneys frequently settle personal injury claims at or above insurance policy limits, and we have obtained numerous judgments and recoveries in excess of $1 million.

Injuries Resulting from Failure to Level an Elevator

One of the most common causes of elevator accident injuries is the failure of installers or maintenance workers to ensure that the elevator floor comes flush with the outside floor at every stop. If the elevator floor is even slightly higher or lower than the external floor, you can easily trip and sustain serious injuries. We will help you recover damages for any injury sustained in a fall due to an improperly leveled elevator,  including scrapes or cuts, sprains, broken bones, muscle or ligament damage, and spinal cord or head trauma.

We have successfully recovered substantial compensation for individuals injured in elevator accidents (see the results in the Koepnick case). We will conduct a thorough investigation of the facts and circumstances of your injury, and will work with expert witnesses, such as engineers and maintenance professionals, to prepare and present the most effective case for your financial recovery. We will help you seek damages for all losses, from wages and income to medical bills to physical pain and suffering.

We handle all elevator injury claims on a contingent fee basis. We will only charge you attorney fees if we recover compensation for your losses.
