St. Louis Accident Lawyer
Elevators are a practical form of transportation for thousands of people in the U.S. They are generally used in hospitals, buildings, shopping malls, hotels, schools, and construction sites. They are excellent for transporting goods and assisting people with disabilities. Though many of us use these elevators for our own benefit, in some cases, elevators can malfunction and cause severe injuries such as broken bones, spinal chord damage, and head injuries.
Approximately 11,000 people a year fall victim to elevator accidents in the U.S., and close to 30 others suffer wrongful death. Small children and elderly people are the most vulnerable. Sudden stops, faulty doors/pulleys, and electrical malfunctions can easily lead to elevator accidents. If you or a loved one is seriously injured in an elevator accident, you may be eligible to receive compensation. Contact an experienced St. Louis personal injury and accident lawyer who can help you pursue compensation for your injuries and damages.
