How were you injured?
SLIP TRIP FALL
Apartment/Rental Home/Condo/Mobile Home Park
Many people suffer serious injuries when entering or exiting their apartments, rental homes, condos or mobile home parks. Sometimes they fall on a piece of broken cement or asphalt, sometimes they slip and fall on snow or ice, and other times it's another sort of defect outside or inside the property such as defective steps or railings, which can lead to serious injury.
Attorneys who do not have a great deal of experience in slip and fall matters will tell you that you do not have a claim in these circumstances due to the Open and Obvious Doctrine. The Michigan Supreme Court and the Michigan Court of Appeals have ruled, in short, that if you could have or should have seen what caused you to slip and fall due to it being open and obvious, it is your fault for falling, and not the fault of the property owner.
However, often times, if you injure yourself on the premises of an apartment, rental home, condo or mobile home park, the Open and Obvious Doctrine does NOT apply. Our experienced attorneys can advise you whether or not we can get you around the Open and Obvious Doctrine and make a successful claim for you.
As you can probably tell, the law gets very complicated very quickly, and every fall has its own set of legal issues that must be recognized and addressed. That is why it is urgent to find an attorney who specializes in slip, trip and fall cases, because spotting an issue can be the difference between getting a successful recovery and getting nothing at all.

We have developed a reputation for being fair, honest and aggressive with these insurance companies. Our reputation and our success allow us to obtain great results for our clients.
