Causes of Premises Liability Accidents:

  • Slips, trips, and falls
    • Loose steps or railings
    • Loose or damaged floorboards or carpeting
    • Slippery or icy conditions
    • Falling debris from walls or roofs
    • Defects in pavement
    • Insufficient lighting
  • Elevator and escalator accidents
  • Swimming pool accidents
  • Amusement park accidents
  • Dangerous playground equipment
  • Lack of security in high-crime areas

Private property owners, business owners, and municipalities must exercise care to protect those who enter their property from dangerous conditions. Careless property owners needlessly endanger innocent people by exposing them to risks of serious personal injury.

Great attorney!! Had amazing results with a complicated case due to marital issues. 10/10 recommend. Communication was always great. Had many attorneys prior and this had been the best so far. Thanks fox team!!
Our family has been involved in two separate car accidents, one at a red light and one where the other driver blew the stop sign. On both cases we had the privilege of having Daniel Fox handle our cases. Having to deal with our injuries, reports, appointments, forms, insurance companies and every day life was already so overwhelming, however, Daniel made it more bearable. He was always so patient, understanding and professional when entertaining all of our calls and questions. He always returned our calls in a timely manner and kept us informed of the process and anything we had to do our end. Daniel was always personal, professional and knowledgeable. I was a pleasure working with him and his firm. I will definitely recommend him to family and friends. We are truly and forever thankful.
I contacted Dan with help reducing a speeding ticket. Not only was he able to reduce the charge to a parking ticket, but he was constantly updating me on the process and took care of everything for me. The entire process could not have been easier or more positive, and I would highly recommend Dan to anyone in a similar position that needs legal representation.
Dan Fox is professional, reliable, and made my experience very easy! Took all of the stress off because I knew it was in capable hands.
I got a speeding ticket on my way to work, not knowing what to do I looked up lawyers who handle such cases and found Dan Fox. Really nice guy and professional he managed to get my charge reduced and avoid points on my license. Definitely worth the five stars for the excellent service his provides!
Had a once in 20 years traffic ticket. Dan was excellent. Simple process. Handles everything. Great outcome. Hopefully wont have to use him again, but would be my first call if I did. Will refer him to everyone.
