Slip and Fall Accidents | St. Paul Attorneys

Landowners have a responsibility to maintain their property and fix dangers on the property. They are supposed to warn people on their property of any unrepaired dangers they would not discover by themselves. Government offices have the same responsibility to maintain the streets and public sidewalks.

The law in Minnesota tends to favor and protect the landowners. So, if ever you or a loved one were seriously injured because of a dangerous condition on someone’s property, or because of a negligently maintained public street or sidewalk, you will need to get sound legal advice about your rights.

Another concern is that the evidence showing the reason you were injured needs to be documented and preserved right away. Repairs or changes are often made to the property after someone gets hurt, and evidence of the defective condition can disappear. Our office has experienced investigators who will immediately begin to work for you if we accept your claim. Also, there are special laws called statutes of limitation that will prevent you from seeking compensation if you do not quickly act to protect your rights. We can advise you of those limitations when you consult with our office.

The attorneys and staff at the Paige Donnelly law firm are experienced with helping people seriously hurt by negligent landowners. We are ready and able to deal with the insurance companies and lawyers who work for the landowners. We will fight for you to get you full compensation and help you deal with the legal challenges you face from your injuries.
