If a top-tier, award-winning law firm is what you are searching for to help you with your slip-and-fall injury, then your search ends right here – welcome to Georgelis Injury Law Firm, serving Lancaster and all of Central PA. Slips and falls may not sound as dramatic as a car collision or a vicious dog attack, but the injuries from slip-and-fall accidents should never be underestimated. Injuries can include broken bones, head trauma, lost limbs, hip fractures, and spinal-cord injuries. Slip-and-fall injuries often mean astronomical medical bills, permanently disrupted lives, a lifetime of physical pain, or the loss of a loved one, which can never be measured.
The fact remains that slip-and-fall accident cases can be difficult or impossible to navigate if the injured party does not have the help of strong legal counsel. Large insurance companies and their slick lawyers know exactly how to manipulate claimants in order to minimize, or even deny, monetary compensation. Our slip-and-fall accident lawyers are here to make sure you don’t become victimized by agreeing to settle for less than what you are entitled to.
Our skilled accident lawyers have unsurpassed experience with ‘premises liability’ and slip-and-fall scenarios. Our Lancaster clients can count on our legal team’s tenacity to feverishly work towards uncovering negligence on the part of the other party. At Georgelis Law, we work hard to ensure our Lancaster patrons receive full monetary recoveries.
Here’s a fact that isn’t easy to accept: insurance companies are not interested in your injuries and how those injuries impact your life or the lives of those closest to you. Insurance companies are interested in maintaining maximized profits, plain and simple. As a result, you could be a sitting duck if you choose to tackle one of these giants on your own.
Insurance companies will attempt to diminish, delay, or deny financial compensations through a network of sneaky maneuverings. One such tactic would include encouraging you to partake in a recorded conversation with an insurance representative in hopes that you might say something that would destroy your case – yes, what you might say to benefit the insurance company would be used against you!
In other situations, your claim could be intentionally delayed, and delayed, and delayed – with the insurance company hoping you will become discouraged enough to give up and ‘just go away’. Disheartening as these facts are, you can place your faith and your burden on our accident lawyers’ shoulders. Our empathy, compassion, and dedication for bringing justice to the forefront is unlike what you would find anywhere else! As slip-and-fall accident lawyers, we will be by your side from start to finish!
When it comes to winning cases for our Lancaster clients, it isn’t just about the wins, it’s about how we do it! The hours of hard work, discipline, and focus that are embedded in each and every accident case is nothing short of astounding—but every single one of our clients deserves and gets this personal attention. Our seasoned accident lawyers utilize extraordinary measures to achieve extraordinary client outcomes. From a $1,400,000 auto-accident recovery case to a $300,000 dog-bite recovery to a $165,000 slip-and-fall settlement to $1.35 million bus accident claims to a $1.25 million motorcycle accident award, our winning achievements have, dramatically and positively, impacted the lives of our Lancaster patrons.
Georgelis Law utilizes its winning strategies with slip-and-fall accidents, of all types:
Slip-and-Fall Accidents – Defective Conditions
Defective conditions that contribute to slip-and-fall accidents run the gamut of possibilities. From broken stairways/walkways, loose handrails, and cluttered floors to crumpled carpet, slippery mats, and inadequate lighting – these scenarios are just begging for accidents to happen!
If any potentially dangerous conditions exist, adequate signs must be posted to warn of the hazards. If a property owner failed to repair or remove hazards or defects which contributed to a slip-and-fall accident, an injured victim can file what is known as a ‘premises liability lawsuit’ against the property owner.
Many times, an expert opinion is required to substantiate a slip-and-fall claim. Georgelis Injury Law has worked with top experts in these fields for decades, making sure that Lancaster’s slip-and-fall accident victims are rightfully and fully compensated for their losses.
If you believe defective conditions contributed to your slip, trip, or fall, call Georgelis Law to determine the best steps forward with your hospital bills, lost wages, and more.
Slip-and-Fall Accidents – Construction Sites
If, while working at a construction site, you experienced a slip-and-fall accident resulting in one or more injuries, call our legal team right away! This is important since you could be duped into receiving a mere portion of financial recovery through the workers’ compensation system – we will fight for your full monetary recovery!
A slip-and-fall accident can also happen when an unassuming visitor to a construction site steps onto an unsecured manhole cover, where no barriers or warnings were in place.
Again, frequently, expert opinions are required to substantiate slip-and-fall claims. Georgelis Injury Law has worked with top experts in these fields for many years, making sure that Lancaster’s slip-and-fall accident victims are rightfully and fully compensated for their losses.
Your construction site slip-and-fall accident will garner our immediate attention – we’re here to help you receive every penny you deserve!
Slip-and-Fall Accidents – Private Properties
An owner of a property is legally required to maintain the property to ensure visitors are not at risk of injury. Reasonable care must be employed to correct any dangerous conditions. From rickety floorboards on an old deck that should have been replaced, to an ice-impacted driveway that should have been treated, dangerous slips and falls are inevitable.
When dangerous conditions are left unattended, accidents should be expected and so should lawsuits. Contact our accident attorneys – we will determine if you qualify for monetary compensation due to your slip-and-fall event.
Slip-and-Fall Accidents – Commercial Properties
Did your slip-and-fall accident occur inside a retail store, mall, hotel, office area, theater, amusement park, bowling alley, or other commercial location? Perhaps your accident happened outside on a defective sidewalk or parking lot of the commercial property. Whatever the details might be, you could be entitled to sizable monetary recoveries.
Many times, an expert opinion is required to substantiate a slip-and-fall claim. Georgelis Injury Law has worked with top experts in these fields for decades, making sure that Lancaster’s slip-and-fall accident victims are rightfully and fully compensated for their losses.
Slip-and-Fall Accidents – Pool Properties
Private pools and public pools can be dangerous places for young children who don’t understand how easily slips and falls can happen. If a private pool owner allows visiting children to run on wet surfaces and a slip-and-fall accident were to occur, the pool/property owner can be held liable for not exercising reasonable care.
If lifeguards at a public pool exercise little or no concern for children running on surfaces adjacent to a pool area, liabilities can ensue. If you or a loved one received injuries due to this type of accident, give our team a call, right away!
If you have sustained a serious slip-and-fall injury due to the negligence or recklessness of another party, you need our team on your side! Georgelis Injury Law Firm possesses an arsenal of resources that help maximize the value of our clients’ accident-injury claims.
