Were You Injured on Commercial Property?
If you were injured in an accident on someone else’s property, and your injury was caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be able to obtain a settlement for your injuries, lost wages and other damages. The key item in the state of Virginia is that not only does the injured party (plaintiff) have to suffer the injury due to someone else’s fault, the plaintiff must prove that the property owner knew about the problem and could have fixed it.
My name is Charles Allen. I have been representing people injured in property accidents for more than 30 years. As your Roanoke premises liability attorney, I will be able to tell you honestly and directly if you have a case. I will not take injury cases if I determine there is no fault by the property owner. I would be happy to discuss your accident and injury to determine your options.
Representative case: My client was 71 years old when she ran into a glass wall. I was able to prove that the building owner knew this was a problem and yet did not fix it. I obtained a settlement in her case for injuries she sustained when she fell.
Roanoke County and Blacksburg Slip-and-Fall Attorney
Most premises liability lawsuits are related to injuries suffered during a slip-and-fall accident. Falling down can result in a broken hip, broken leg or arm, or a serious head injury. The litigation can be against a commercial property owner, a homeowner or a company hired by the property owner.
Representative case: My client contracted with a company for some home repairs. A worker left a rope lying about that my client tripped over and was injured. I was able to obtain a settlement against the repair company’s liability insurance.
I am a personal injury lawyer who represents individuals with injuries related to the following types of issues:
- Cracked or broken sidewalks or flooring
- Dangerous conditions such as unmarked holes
- Falling objects
- Uneven surfaces on floors or elevator entrances
- Unsafe conditions such as missing handrails on stairs
- Wet floors
A dog bite or animal bite could also be considered a premises liability case if the homeowner or commercial property owner did not sufficiently restrain the animal.
