Common Causes of Parking Lot Accidents We Have Seen At Lenahan & Dempsey

Parking lot slip, trip, and fall accidents can occur for many reasons, including:

1. Uneven Surfaces - Cracks, potholes, or uneven pavement can create tripping hazards.
2. Poor Lighting - Inadequate lighting can make it difficult for people to see potential dangers, increasing the chance of accidents.
3. Obstructions - Items such as improperly parked cars, trash cans poorly placed, shopping carts, leaves and other debris create hazards.
4. Wet or Slippery Surfaces - Rain, snow, ice or spilled liquids can lead to slippery conditions, resulting in falls.
5. Inadequate Maintenance - Failure to repair or maintain a parking lot can contribute to hazardous conditions that lead to accidents.

You Have Legal Rights Under Pennsylvania Law

If you have been injured in a parking lot fall in Pennsylvania, you may have the right to seek compensation for your injuries.   Here is what your Lenahan & Dempsey lawyer will do when moving your case forward:

1. Establish NegligenceTo pursue a personal injury claim, we must demonstrate that the property owner or the municipality was negligent in maintaining the sidewalk. This involves proving:- The property owner had a duty to maintain the sidewalk in a safe condition.
   - They breached that duty by failing to address hazards.
   - This breach directly caused your accident and injuries.
2. Identify All Potential DefendantsDepending on the exact circumstances of your case, you may be able to pursue claims against:Private Property Owners and their Insurance Company -  If the accident occurred in a privately owned parking lot the owner may be liable for negligence.

   Municipalities - If the accident happened in a public parking lot, you may have a claim against the city or town. However, there are specific rules and time limits for filing claims against government entities, so prompt action is essential.

Other Third Parties – This would include anyone who helped create the hazard such as companies contracted to clear snow or debris but failed to do so, those who parked in such a way in the parking lot as to create a hazard and more.
