Slip Into Fall: Premise Liability | ||||||||
When your client falls, DK has their back. | ||||||||
As October comes to a close and we slip into fall, DK wants to bring awareness to the complexity and hazards of slip and fall cases. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) reports that most general industry incidents involve slips, trips, and falls and account for 15% of all accidental deaths – falling only behind motor vehicle collisions. With 12,000 deaths a year resulting from slips, trips & falls, there is a significant opportunity for personal injury and workers’ compensation attorneys to assist with securing justice. In a list of slip and fall related statistics compiled by the National Floor Safety Institute, 85% of worker’s compensation claims are attributed to employees slipping on slick floors. Further, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention reports that one out of five falls causes a serious injury such as broken bones or a head injury, and that direct medical costs for fall injuries are $31 billion annually, with hospital costs accounting for two-thirds of the total. Although people generally tend to think of slips and falls as minor, DK Global has produced a number of reconstruction and medical animations that demonstrate how severe slips and falls can be, resulting in over $10 million in case results. Each case is unique and has its own needs and goals. DK Global has built constant feedback and collaboration into our production process to ensure the highest level of quality and accuracy in every project. Visual presentations can assist any argument in improving clarity, and have often made a multi-million dollar difference in even the toughest cases. When your client falls, DK Global has their back.
