Injured in a slip-and-fall accident on Kauaʻi? We help hold negligent property owners accountable and pursue the compensation you deserve.
From Līhuʻe and Kapaʻa to Hanalei, Poʻipū, Waimea, and communities throughout Kauaʻi, residents and visitors rely on property owners to maintain reasonably safe premises. Slip-and-fall and trip-and-fall accidents can occur at hotels, resorts, restaurants, stores, apartment complexes, parking lots, and other properties when hazardous conditions are left unaddressed. Premises liability cases arising on Kauaʻi are generally heard in the Fifth Circuit Court in Līhuʻe.
Property owners, hotels, resorts, businesses, landlords, and other occupiers of land have a duty to keep their premises reasonably safe. When they fail to correct dangerous conditions or provide adequate warning of known hazards, and someone is seriously injured as a result, they may be held legally responsible. Mattoch & Kirley helps injured clients pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and other damages.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is unique and is evaluated on its own facts.
Most slip-and-fall cases begin with an insurance claim, not a lawsuit. After an accident, your claim is typically made against the insurance company for the property owner, hotel, resort, business, landlord, or other party responsible for maintaining the premises. If the insurance company denies liability or refuses to offer a fair settlement, filing a lawsuit may become necessary. Slip-and-fall lawsuits arising on Kauaʻi are generally filed in the Fifth Circuit Court in Līhuʻe. Mattoch & Kirley handles the entire process, from investigating the accident and gathering evidence to negotiating with insurance companies and, when necessary, filing suit and representing you in court. We work to pursue full compensation for your injuries and losses while you focus on your recovery.
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.
Not necessarily. Hawaii's comparative negligence rule may still allow recovery even if you share some responsibility.
Yes. Most slip and fall work is handled remotely, and we travel to Kauaʻi to meet seriously injured clients in person. The absence of a local office does not limit your representation.
The consultation is free, we are available around the clock, and you owe nothing unless we win.
