Causes of Sidewalk Accidents

Sidewalk accidents can happen for a plethora of reasons, but they are most frequently a result of dangerous sidewalk conditions. Some of the most common sidewalk hazards our firm sees are as follows:

• Insufficient lighting
• Uneven surfaces
• Potholes and cracks
• Debris and obstructions
• Inadequate drainage
• Missing sidewalk tiles
• Weather-related hazards left uncleared away
• Protruding tree roots

After a Sidewalk Accident

After sustaining an injury in a sidewalk accident, you should do what you can to document exactly how the incident occurred. This can include:

• Calling 911 and requesting medical attention.
• Taking pictures of the unsafe sidewalk conditions that caused your accident.
• Asking witnesses for their contact information.
• Keeping copies of all medical documentation pertaining to your injuries.
• Hiring a dedicated sidewalk accident lawyer who can help you fight for the full and fair compensation to which you are entitled.

Recovering Compensation

As long as we can satisfy the burden of proof, meaning we prove that you were injured due to dangerous sidewalk conditions and no fault of your own, you should receive compensation to help you deal with the economic and non-economic damages you’ve incurred as a result of your accident. This can include:

• Medical bills
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• The loss of enjoyment of life
• Emotional trauma

Filing On Time

The statute of limitations for most personal injury claims in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania is two years, meaning you will have to file your personal injury claim within two years of the date of your accident. Waiting longer than this will result in you losing your right to sue altogether. Falcon Law Firm is here to start the fight today.
