Pittsburgh Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer

Attorney for Premises Liability Cases in Allegheny County, PA

At Colianni & Leonard LLC, we recognize that falling down is an inconvenient part of life. Just about everyone alive has slipped or tripped and fallen at least a few times. Realistically, most falls of this nature are minor, and result in little more than embarrassment or a small bruise. Sometimes, however, a slip and fall can be much more serious and severe injuries may result. If you have been hurt in a slip and fall on someone else's property, our firm is equipped to help you pursue the compensation you deserve.

Allegheny County Counsel for Fall Victims

Every year, approximately 8 million American men, women, and children require emergency medical treatment for injuries related to falls. Slips and trips account for more than one million of these falls in an average year. Slip and fall accidents are also one of the prevalent types of workplace injury, especially among older workers. Attorney Vincent Colianni understands the challenges you may be facing after being injured in a slip and fall accident, and he and his team will fight to protect your rights.

Slip and fall accidents and trip and fall accidents are largely preventable and may be caused by dangerous conditions such as:

• Spilled liquids and wet floors without proper warning signs;
• Missing and broken floor tiles;
• Raised carpet seams;
• Damaged stairs and missing railings;
• Uneven pavement;
• Snow and ice-covered sidewalks and parking lots; and
• Inadequate lighting and security.

While most slip and fall accidents outside of the home happen on commercial property, such as retail outlets, grocery stores, and office buildings, such accidents can occur virtually anywhere. Homeowners, business owners, and even government agencies may be held responsible for injuries sustained by guests on their property.

We will conduct a thorough investigation of your accident so that we are fully prepared for the road ahead.
