Slip and Fall

Severe personal injury in a slip and fall case is not uncommon. Our attorneys handle slip and fall cases in which a person has been injured as a result of another’s negligence, causing them injury and/or financial distress in the form of medical bills and missed work. Common types of fall down claims involve foreign substances on the floor, unmarked wet areas, and improperly marked tripping hazards. Please contact our Lakeland, Florida area personal injury attorneys for a consultation if you have been injured in a slip (or trip) and fall accident.

Construction Site Accidents

Each year, hundreds of construction workers suffer personal injury that should not happen. Proper warnings and safety precautions are required by law to prevent these kinds of accidents. However, in spite of these laws, many people are injured because of negligent safety. If you have suffered personal injury on a construction or other work site in Florida, please contact our personal injury attorneys for a consultation, so that you will be sure to receive all the benefits and damages to which you are entitled.

Animal Accidents

Our Lakeland area personal injury attorneys handle cases for those who have been injured as a result of an animal attack. These cases typically involve victims of dog bites, which can be severely debilitating and costly, incurring large medical expenses and other damages — the owner of a dog is generally liable for injuries his animal causes to someone. One possible exception occurs when the injured person provokes the dog. There are also occasions when a landlord is financially responsible for a dog attack when the dog belongs to a tenant. Our personal injury attorneys can help you deal with insurance companies handling these claims, so that you will be sure to receive all the benefits and damages to which you are entitled.

Negligent Security

Negligent security cases of personal injury involve an injury that occurs as a result of a criminal attack. If an attack occurs on the property of a business, and it could have been prevented by the provision of adequate security, victims can be compensated for their injuries. Sometimes companies are fully aware of serious criminal problems occurring on their property, but choose to ignore the problem rather than paying for the proper security. Florida personal injury law recognizes the right of a victim to pursue a claim for damages under these circumstances. Contact our personal injury attorneys for more information on pursuing your case.

Theme Park Accidents

At The Philpot Law Group, P.A our personal injury attorneys handle a variety of cases that involve injuries that occur at theme parks in Florida. Theme parks typically deny responsibility for injuries sustained by their guests, and will not fully compensate victims until they secure representation from legal counsel. Please contact our Lakeland, Florida area personal injury attorneys if you have been involved in an accident at a local theme park so we can assist you in recovering the benefits and damages to which you are entitled.
