¿Quién es responsable si tropiezo en la acera?


El aumento de los accidentes en las aceras puede atribuirse a la reticencia a reparar los pasarelas defectuosas, and this responsibility is shared by property owners and city officials alike. Sidewalk accidents can result in various kinds of injuries and damages, and if you are not careful, you could be permanently hurt in the incident. You should be willing to take the necessary legal action to have any ensuing expenses covered, and our law firm, the Downtown LA Law Group, will be glad to help. We will represent you and ensure that you have the chance of success with your claim. We know the most effective methods to ganar demandas por accidentes de acera, and we are willing to take action against any responsible party, whether a property owner, business owner, or city group. We are often asked questions about the liability of sidewalk accidents, some of which include:

¿Quién es responsable de la reparación de aceras?

En general, las aceras llevan décadas en su sitio, pero los años de actividad y exposición han provocado su deterioro. En responsabilidad de las aceras depende de la situación. Por ejemplo, si una acera tiene hojas mojadas, nieve, hielo y otros peligros medioambientales on it, the property owner has a duty to clear the path for pedestrians. If there are trees that have caused the sidewalk to rise up, crack, and become uneven, the city can be held responsible for the repair. The city may not be responsible if the damage to the sidewalk is very negligible; for instance, if there are only a few small grietas en la acera, the city may be absolved of responsibility. If a property owner is aware of issues with the sidewalk and does not address them, he can be held responsable de las lesiones que se produzcan. For instance, if a business owner knows that there is a section of the sidewalk that is raised and causes people to trip but does nothing to fix it, he can be held liable. Further, he can also be held liable if he caused the damage to the sidewalk in the first place. There is also the possibility that the owner was simply negligent and unaware of the hazard at all. However, he should have reasonably been aware, as any other dutiful property owner would have been in his position. With the help of our attorneys, you can determine who is liable for your injuries from a sidewalk slip and fall accident and take proper legal action against the correct entity.

¿Cuáles son las causas de los accidentes en las aceras?

Hay muchas razones por las que accidentes en las aceras ocurren, y algunos se atribuyen directamente a la negligencia de los propietarios. No es infrecuente ver la gente tropieza y se cae over discarded items and materials; for instance, sticks, garbage, toys, and more can all be left on the sidewalk, sometimes overnight, which may cause passersby to trip. Over time, natural disasters, weather, wear and tear, and expanding tree roots can all rompen y agrietan las aceras, sometimes even popping them up and causing raised sections that are uneven and hard to navigate. These instances are no one’s fault, and the repair should be left to the city, while continued maintenance should be the responsibility of the property owner. Cracks in the sidewalk can be detrimental to more than just those who walk on foot. Any disabled individuals in wheelchairs and who use canes and walkers can get stuck in the cracks, causing them to suddenly fall over. Those who have service dogs or who are blind can fall much easier than those who do not. Also, parents pushing their babies in strollers may not see the full view of the sidewalk, and a fall can cause the carriage to upend, resulting in injuries to the child or children. If you were hurt in a sidewalk trip and fall accident, you should contact our law firm. We will help you determine who was liable and who you can take legal action against.

Quién es responsable del mantenimiento de las aceras

¿Cuáles son las lesiones más comunes por resbalones y caídas en las aceras?

Victims of sidewalk slip and falls can suffer various damages to their bodies as a result of the accidents. The risk of damage increases because of how sudden the impact may be. A raised section of a sidewalk can cause you to catch your foot and plummet to the ground; it can be even more debilitating if your hands are occupied or you’re carrying bags, luggage, or groceries. Older individuals who fall on the sidewalk are more susceptible to damage due to a life of injuries and wear and tear on the body. Elderly victims may suffer various injuries because of brittle bones, and once the damage has been done, more injuries can start to appear. It is not uncommon to see elderly individuals suffer a simple injury like a broken leg only to have the condition worsen or never fully heal. We have handled cases where injuries include:

  • Huesos rotos
  • Fracturas y esguinces
  • Dislocaciones
  • Daño nervioso
  • Desgarros musculares
  • Lesiones de rodilla y cadera
  • Daños en el cuello y la médula espinal
  • Conmociones cerebrales
  • Lesiones cerebrales
  • Lesiones craneales cerradas
  • Lesiones en muñecas, brazos y dedos
  • Parálisis

Algunos de estos daños pueden ser permanentes. Es crucial que reciba atención médica lo antes posible para ser tratado. Nuestros abogados pueden recomendarle a un médico especializado si es necesario; llame a nuestras oficinas para más detalles.

¿Qué debo hacer después de un resbalón y caída en la acera?

You can also call the paramedics if you need on-site assistance. You should get medical treatment regardless of whether or not you believe you were seriously hurt; some damages can manifest much later. Further, if there is a large gap between the accident and medical treatment, the insurance agent may claim that you were hurt elsewhere and you’re trying to blame the injuries on the fall.

Puedes filmar los materiales y los peligros, y también fotografiar tus lesiones para mostrar el alcance de los daños.

Si hubiera algún testigos que te vieron resbalar y caer, podrías pedirles sus testimonios y declaraciones. Other witnesses could be neighbors who can attest to the condition of the sidewalk and workers who could back up your claim. You should try to identificar al responsable de los daños. If it were a business, you could file an incident report with the company. Otherwise, you may need to do more research to find out just who should be held responsible. Lastly, you should contact a qualified sidewalk slip and fall lawyer to handle your claim for you. Es posible que no pueda hacer frente al estrés de la demanda y que no tenga los conocimientos o la experiencia necesarios para negociar con éxito un acuerdo justo.

¿Qué puedo recibir de una demanda por accidente de acera?

The insurance agent will weigh the amount of damages you suffered to make an offer. If the injuries were severe and had a large effect on your job and life, you would likely be eligible for more compensation than if you were not seriously hurt. Your case could be worth over $200,000 if you were seriously injured. We will strive to bring you compensation for the following damages:

  • Gastos médicos y facturas pasadas y futuras
  • Daños materiales y objetos perdidos
  • Pérdida de ingresos por días de trabajo perdidos en el pasado y en el futuro
  • Dolor y sufrimiento emocional
