Representing People Injured in Elevator Accidents
People often underestimate just how many serious injuries occur in grain elevators each year. In fact, grain elevator accidents are one of the most deadly kinds of agricultural accidents, and they can profoundly affect the lives of workers and their families.
At Friedman, Domiano & Smith, we represent elevator accident victims in personal injury lawsuits in Ohio courts. Our law firm also represents surviving families in wrongful death actions.
We handle cases involving injuries caused by material handling belts used in industrial and agricultural applications, as well as people who have fallen into grain elevators and have been injured by the weight of grain stored inside.
The lawyers at Friedman, Domiano & Smith also represent the victims of accidents that occur on someone else's property — premises liability accidents. These may include accidents that happen in freight elevators, building elevators, dumbwaiters or on escalators at malls, in office buildings, hotels and universities.
Sending a Clear Message to Employers
While successful personal injury cases involving grain elevators can recoup thousands of dollars in jury verdicts and settlements, the greatest value in litigation is often found in preventing the same harm from happening to others in the future.
Lawsuits send a clear message to employers: The consequences of ignoring proper safety procedures are serious. Often lawsuits are an incentive for employers to change policies and procedures so that the same harm will not happen to others in the future.
