DEFECTIVE STAIRWAY ACCIDENTS

PERSONAL ATTENTION TO YOUR PERSONAL INJURY

​

 

​

Have you been seriously injured by falling down the stairs, a stairway cluttered with cleaning equipment or children's toys, for example? Did your loved one die from falling down the stairs and hitting a railing that broke?

​

If you answered "yes" to getting seriously injured on stairs, contact the experienced Miami defective stairway accident lawyers at the Law Offices of Ivan A. Schertzer in North Miami Beach, Florida.

​

More Than Three Decades Of Experience

​

Our firm's founder, Ivan Schertzer, applies his more than 30 years of legal experience — both as a personal injury attorney and insurance defense counsel — to your case. This background gives him a good understanding of slip-and-fall injury law from both sides, enabling him to aggressively protect your rights. He knows how the other side thinks and can anticipate what they are likely to do.

​

Mr. Schertzer and personal injury attorney Joni D. Blachar will thoroughly investigate your case, identifying who was responsible and holding them accountable. Our attorneys will also consult with your physician and other medical professionals to determine the severity and the extent of your injuries, both for the short and the long term. This will form the basis for your claim.

Then our attorneys will make sure you receive just compensation — recovering your unpaid wages, paying your medical bills and receiving money for pain and suffering — by being your tough negotiators at the table or aggressive advocates in the courtroom.

​

Some Common Preventable Causes Of Stairway Accidents

​

Many times, stairway accidents could have been prevented if the property owner, landlord or manager did his or her job. Here is a short list of those preventable causes of stairway accidents:

​

•    Crooked stairs
•    Collapsing stairs
•    Defective railings that gave way
•    Open staircases lacking protective railings
•    Unlit or poorly illuminated stairs
•    Poorly maintained floor surfaces (upturned carpet, cracked cement, cracked linoleum, broken tile)
•    Obstacles on stairs, including packages, boxes, toys and cleaning supplies


There are many other preventable causes of stairway accidents. To be sure that the cause of your accident is properly identified and the people responsible are held accountable, contact the experienced personal injury attorneys at the Law Offices of Ivan A. Schertzer.
