Personal Injury
When an accident occurs it is usually when you are least expecting it and while you are doing something that you’ve done countless times without incident. Swinging a hammer while on a ladder at work, driving the same road home at the typical time of day and in normal weather conditions, or doing your grocery shopping at the same place you have been going to for years, in familiar situations like these it is normal not to have your guard up.
But even with these extremely familiar scenarios accidents occur all the time and at no fault of our own. A hinge on that ladder gives way even though there weren’t any signs of unsteadiness. A driver in your neighborhood gets distracted by a text message not noticing the all-way stop sign intersection ahead. An employee at the grocery store may have underestimated the slipperiness of the floor after performing a clean up and incorrectly judged that a “Caution – Wet Floor” sign was not necessary. These are just a few examples of situations where accidents happen and there are a thousand more scenarios that result in injuries due entirely to the absent mindedness of others or because of defective products or pieces of equipment that should have been retired a long time ago.
