When escalators and moving walkways malfunction, passengers can suffer serious injuries or death. These sorts of accidents are far more common than you might think. Over 10,000 people are injured every year in escalator accidents.
More than 70 percent of the injuries are related to escalator falls — people falling when getting on/off the escalator or when clothing or limbs get caught. There are often serious injuries as a result of people who lose their balance while on the escalator and then fall onto other passengers.
The companies that own, operate and maintain escalators have experienced litigators and defense law firms on retainer to protect their interests and help them minimize or deny injury claims. Escalator injury victims should seriously considering hiring their own attorneys to assist with their accident claim in order to make sure that they are fairly compensated.
For victims of escalator injuries seeking redress, pursuing a premises liability claim is paramount.
