Freehold Slip-And-Fall Accidents Lawyer
If you have suffered an injury due to an unsafe condition in a store, on a commercial property, at a residence or on a sidewalk, you are entitled to compensation for your losses and suffering.
At The Law Office of Mallon & Tranger, we help clients in Monmouth and Ocean counties and elsewhere in New Jersey who have been injured due to the negligence or carelessness of property owners or their employees. We work to help them obtain fair and rightful compensation for the resources they need to recover and rebuild their lives.
New Jersey Premises Liability Recovery For Injuries
We at The Law Office of Mallon & Tranger work to obtain compensation for clients who have suffered injuries due to:
- Slip-and-fall accidents
- Merchandise falling off shelves
- Slippery floors and sidewalks
- Broken pavement
- Inadequate lighting
- Poor security
In New Jersey, property owners have a legal duty to maintain their premises in a safe condition. This responsibility extends to all types of properties, including commercial spaces like Freehold Raceway Mall, retail giants such as Walmart in Freehold and construction sites.
The entity that owns the property can influence the complexity of a premises liability claim. For example, a claim against a large corporation may involve more intricate legal procedures than a case involving a private homeowner.
To successfully recover damages, you must prove the property owner knew or should have known about the hazardous condition and failed to take appropriate action to reduce the accident and injury risks.
Evidence such as maintenance records, surveillance footage and eyewitness testimony can be crucial in establishing liability. Our team can help you navigate these challenges, helping ensure you receive the compensation you deserve for your injuries.
Maximizing Your Compensation After A Fall On Someone’s Property
A trip-and-fall or premises accident that leads to a head injury or broken bone can have lasting and serious effects. In some cases, a premises liability or retail accident can lead to disabling brain or spinal cord injury or even death. People who have suffered broken bones will need substantial resources for medical care, rehabilitation therapy and possibly more to make up for income lost due to disability.
Our goal in personal injury cases is always to maximize the compensation our clients receive. When you sit down with our personal injury lawyers to discuss your case, we will carefully examine all aspects of your accident and injury. We will identify where true liability for your slip-and-fall injury lies and all possible sources of compensation. If we decide to work together, we will aggressively pursue your case to obtain compensation and justice for you.
Beyond economic damages like medical expenses and lost wages, you may also be entitled to recover compensation for:
- Pain and suffering: This is the physical pain and emotional anguish you endure as a result of the injury.
- Loss of enjoyment of life: This will compensate you for the inability to participate in activities that you once enjoyed.
Emotional distress damages are awarded when the injury leads to severe anxiety, depression or other mental health issues. These noneconomic damages can be more challenging to calculate but are crucial in helping to ensure you receive full compensation. We work closely with medical professionals and other experts to accurately assess the full extent of your damages.
Additionally, if your injury requires long-term care or results in permanent disability, we will factor in the costs of future medical treatment, home modifications and any necessary assistive devices.
Calculating these costs involves a thorough understanding of your current medical needs and accurately projecting future expenses. Our team is committed to helping ensure that all these factors are considered so you are not left with unexpected financial burdens down the line.
