Inadequate Lighting and Premises Liability
In various indoor and outdoor environments, inadequate lighting can be a safety hazard for patrons of all ages. If you are unable to see the floor on which you are walking or stairs that are ahead of you, serious injuries could occur, such as cuts, lacerations, bruises, sprained joints, fractured bones and severe spine or brain injuries.
If you or someone you love has been injured due to a slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall that was caused by poor lighting on another individual’s property, you may be entitled to financial compensation to help you pay for any expenses that resulted from the accident, including medical bills, lost wages due to missed work and more.

- Stumbling, tripping or falling on poorly lit stairs or steps
- Slip-and-fall from unseen wet or greasy floors
