Injured on East Hawaiʻi Island? We know the roads, the courts, and the local realities, and we put that knowledge to work for you.
From Hilo through Puna and Hāmākua, the East Side of Hawaiʻi Island is known for its frequent rainfall and damp conditions, which can create hazardous walking surfaces at businesses, public properties, and private premises. When a slip-and-fall injury occurs, cases are often litigated in the Third Circuit Court in Hilo, and injured individuals commonly receive care at Hilo Medical Center.
Property owners, including hotels, resorts, and businesses, have a duty to keep their premises reasonably safe. When they fail and you are seriously hurt, they can be held responsible.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is unique and is evaluated on its own facts.
A serious Slip and Fall accident can leave a victim facing emergency treatment at a major medical facility such as Hilo Benioff Medical Center or Queen's North Hawaii Community Hospital and pursing a premises liability claim in the Third Circuit Court in Hilo. We handle the filing and court appearances for you.
Generally, that a hazard existed, the owner knew or should have known about it, they failed to fix it or warn you, and that failure caused your injury. Make sure you keep the footwear that you were wearing at the time of the fall. Place them in a bag to ensure that you do not wear them until after your case is settled and the matter resolved.
Not necessarily. Hawaii's comparative negligence rule may still allow recovery even if you share some responsibility.
The consultation is free, we are available around the clock, and you owe nothing unless we win.
