We are the GSG Law Firm, based in Denver, CO, where Attorney Geoffrey S. Gulinson leads our dedicated legal team. Here is an important topic, not talked about too often: elevator accidents. Elevator incidents can be distressing and alarming, often leaving individuals feeling helpless. At GSG Law Firm, we understand the complexities surrounding elevator accidents and are here to provide guidance and support if you’ve suffered injuries in one.
Here are some common questions you may have about the legal process moving forward:
What are the primary causes of elevator accidents?
Elevator mishaps typically stem from negligence, whether it be from the elevator’s designer/manufacturer or the property owner. In some instances, a negligent elevator technician could also be at fault. If our firm can demonstrate that the elevator or its components were negligently designed or manufactured, resulting in your accident, you likely have a valid product liability case.
Think about this: if we can establish that the property owner was aware or should have known about unsafe elevator conditions, failed to address them, and you sustained injuries and damages as a result, you may have grounds for a premises liability claim. To explore the possibility of a personal injury claim further, please use our contact page and reach out.
What steps should I take if I am involved in an elevator accident?
If involved in an elevator accident, your best bet is to document the incident if possible or have someone do it for you. You can photograph the accident scene and your injuries, gather contact information from witnesses, retain copies of all medical records and bills related to your injuries, and more. Many elevators are equipped with cameras that may have captured the accident. DO NOT FORGET THIS STEP, it is crucial to consult with a seasoned personal injury attorney like GSG Law Firm in Denver right away. Our team can assist you in substantiating your personal injury claim.
By meeting the burden of proof, you may be entitled to financial compensation to aid in your recovery from both economic and non-economic damages incurred in the accident. These damages may include medical expenses, lost wages, emotional distress, pain and suffering, and more.
