Falls Prevention Week happens each year in September. Falls result in serious injuries yearly, particularly among seniors, including broken bones and traumatic brain injuries. It’s reported that over 3 million people are treated in emergency rooms every year for injuries caused by a slips and falls. This important health observance calls attention to several ways to reduce the risk of falls. But what about when a fall happens due to someone else’s negligence?

Help for Fall Victims

Consider the following scenarios:

  • Slipping on spilled food or beverages in a grocery store
  • Losing your balance and falling due to uncleared ice and snow on a sidewalk
  • Tripping over loose carpeting in a department store
  • Falling over construction debris left in a walking area

These are just a few examples of falls caused by someone else not doing their job properly. Property owners in the Sacramento area are legally required to manage and maintain their properties and businesses. If failure to do this has resulted in a slip and fall accident, the property owner will be responsible for damage to your injuries.

When a Fall Isn’t Your Fault

From the very start of my case the Tiemann Law Firm was wonderful. Perter came all the way to my home to sit down and talk to me about my options. He made me and my partner feel very comfortable and promised us he would take the very best care of my case. Peter kept me informed every step of the way and was always on top of things. everything was done in a timely manor and I always felt like I was the only case he was working on because he was so fast. In the end Peter got me back way more money than I ever expected. I would recommend this law firm to everyone. I am very happy with the outcome of my case thanks to the Tiemann Law Firm! Thank you!

I just saw my lawyer Jelena Tiemann on a t.v ad, which reminded me how much she helped when I was in a desperate situation. I just love her! That is why I feel a need to tell everyone. I had a situation that happened & didn’t know what to do, our where to go. I didn’t even know if she could help me or if any lawyer could. All I wanted was it to go away & was afraid most lawyers wanted to drag it out & possibly go to court. For one she was very professional but was very personable (maybe b.c she’s a lady). She didn’t make me feel embarrassed or self-conscious that I did something wrong or was the cause of the situation. She immediately said we should try our best before going to court. Let me handle some paperwork, if at the last we do go to court we have documents. She gave me all the details, pros and cons but reassured me she deals with these cases all the time. She came through and made it as painless as possible. I now have my life back.
