Injuries from Poorly-Maintained Property

When a property owner fails to properly maintain their premises, visitors may suffer serious accidents or personal injuries. Most of the time, accidents happen when there is some dangerous or defective condition on the property that causes a visitor to slip or trip. The Charleston slip and fall lawyers at Steinberg Law Firm have handled many of these cases and have the knowledge and understanding to seek compensation on your behalf.
