MDR Law understands that it is the duty and obligation of a business to ensure your safety. Some necessary steps businesses take to prevent accidents are as follows:
- Maintenance crews should alert others when hazardous conditions are present, using signs and other items to clearly mark the area.
- Ensuring areas like stairs, escalators, railings all meet safety codes and regulations of the state.
- Conduct periodic checks to assess safety of all areas and complete routine maintenance to avoid accidents.
If you have experienced this type of accident, we will work on your behalf to ensure the responsible business or entity is held accountable, especially when your accident is caused by:
- Negligence of the maintenance crew and/or property owner
- Inattentiveness
- Conscious violation of safety codes and standards
- Liquid or hazardous items on the floor.
- Broken steps, stairs or railings or in disrepair.

Dog bites and children
Often, the full extent of the injuries suffered by a child, whether physically or emotionally, is not known until years after the incident. Due to this fact, there are special rules that apply when minors and children are injured. This involves tolling, or delaying the running of the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations refers to the time in which you must bring a lawsuit. If you fail to file the lawsuit within that time, a person loses their right to bring suit. Typically, in personal injury cases, the injured party has two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit.
This is not the case with minor children. While minors are still subject to the two year requirement, the date that the time begins to run is the day the minor turns 18 years old or is emancipated. Accordingly, minor children are allowed an extended period of time to bring a lawsuit seeking compensation for their injuries. However, this does not mean that a lawsuit should not be filed within the original two year period.
