Serious Los Angeles wheelchair accidents are remarkably and unfortunately common these days. While there are strict ADA rules in place to help make public areas safer and more accessible, there are also a lot of ADA exceptions, flagrant wheelchair violations and other things that ultimately lead to serious injuries and in some cases deaths. If you have recently experienced a Los Angeles wheelchair injury or death, click here to get in touch with Walch Law immediately.
LOS ANGELES WHEELCHAIR ACCIDENTS
Wheelchairs are supposed to keep their occupants safely moving throughout private and public properties throughout Los Angeles. Unfortunately, from Santa Clarita to Encino to San Diego, the property is a danger to unassuming wheelchair users. A Los Angeles wheelchair personal injury lawsuit can help. Here’s a look at some of the most common causes of wheelchair accidents:
- Loose handicap ramps
- Uneven flooring
- Absence of wheelchair accessibility
- Poor lighting
- Crowds not respecting disability needs (similar to a shopping slip and fall)
DEFECTIVE WHEELCHAIRS
Sometimes it is the wheelchair itself that is the problem. Under a legal theory of product liability, these Los Angeles personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits look at how the design and subsequent malfunction of a wheelchair was the source of the otherwise avoidable accident.
What happens if you borrow a wheelchair from a store or property and then have a serious injury? This is common at Supermarkets, amusement parks and if they offer or rent out chairs for the use of paying customers then they absolutely have a duty to make sure that the chairs they are providing aren’t death traps.
