Philadelphia Lawyers for Defective Elevator and Escalator Accident Victims
Philadelphia is a city of high-rise buildings, which means that there are numerous elevators and escalators in the county. Although most still work well, some are poorly designed or manufactured.

Causes of Elevator and Escalator Injuries
Our attorneys have attained compensation for clients who sustained injuries due to malfunctioning elevators and escalators caused by:
- Elevator doors closing quickly
- Bad design
- Poor maintenance
- Faulty manufactured parts
- Wet floors in elevators
- Failure of safety devices
- Stopping and jerking on escalators
- Mis-leveling of elevators
Some of these conditions lead to trip-and-falls, while others result in users being caught in the mechanisms or getting stuck between floors. Clients have suffered head injuries, broken bones, crush injuries and various other injuries because of defective elevators and escalators.
