Slip And Fall: Defective Escalators & Elevators


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. Others fail due to poor maintenance. If you or a loved one was injured while on an elevator or escalator, you may have a right to compensation for your losses and damages.

At Philly Slip and Fall Guys, our attorneys have been helping injured clients for over 30 years. Over the years, we have obtained compensation for hundreds of people, including those who incurred injuries due to defective elevators and escalators.

If you or a loved one was injured in an elevator or on an escalator anywhere in Philadelphia County, call our lawyers. We handle accident injury cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you owe no attorney’s fee until we obtain a verdict or settlement on your behalf. Call us at (215) 268-6898 or contact us online to schedule a free consultation.

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.

Keith stepped in as if he were my big brother. As the year went on we had plenty of meetings, all to assure me that we had a case and there were no worries. Down to the last months, difficulties arose. The defendant was not willing to satisfy my case. Keith stepped in as he did all along, and heard what the defendant did not, which helped close out the case. He will go the extra mile for you. Thank you Keith!.
