Slip On Unshoveled Pathway

There’s no doubt about it: Buffalo is a tough town. We battle blizzard conditions every winter and each year the city records an average of 80 feet of snowfall. Unfortunately, many property owners in Western New York do not live up to their legal responsibilities.

In Western New York, most property owners are required to clear snow and ice from commonly used pathways like sidewalks and parking lots. If this maintenance is not completed in a timely manner, property owners can face fines or worse: a slip and fall injury on their property.

The slip and fall attorneys at The Barnes Firm live and work in the Buffalo area. They want our community to be as safe as possible. That’s why our lawyers will fight hard against negligence and work for you to get the compensation you need to recover.

Falls From Potholes

You see them everywhere in Buffalo, especially in spring after a long winter. Potholes can lead to broken wrists, ankles, legs, and life-altering hip and joint injuries if you accidentally step in one.

Potholes are commonly found on streets, but you may also find them on sidewalks, parking lots, and driveways.

If you are hurt after tripping in a pothole, a court could find someone else liable for your injuries. That’s why it’s important to work with attorneys who have investigative minds and a desire to improve the safety of their communities. At The Barnes Firm, we’ve helped clients recover millions in verdicts and settlements after an injury.

Slip On Wet Floor

Employers and businesses are legally required to make their environment as safe as possible for the employees and customers. People get injured on a wet floor while walking around a department store, a grocery store or a drug store.

At The Barnes Firm, we feel that both customers and employees should feel safe in these businesses. That’s why our Buffalo slip and fall attorneys advocate for more safety regulations and better supervision.

If you’ve been hurt after a slip and fall on a wet floor, we will fight for all customers to make sure it doesn’t happen to anyone else. Most importantly, we’ll fight for you and your family to get the compensation you need to recover from your injuries.

Whether you were injured tripping on uneven pavement, slipping on a wet floor, or falling on an unshoveled pathway, The Barnes Firm can help.
