Slip and Fall Accidents
There may be many reasons a slip and fall injury would occur but all of these situations have one thing in common: property owners have failed to do their duty to ensure that they diligently maintain a safe environment for their customers.

We represent victims injured by a fall due to unsafe conditions at commercial or private premises.
Retail & Grocery Store Accidents
Grocery shopping is a necessary task which is why it is so important for these stores to be diligent about providing a safe environment. Accidents such as carelessly placed displays, slippery floors, falling signs, and other hazards can cause serious harm and can have a significant impact on your life.
Our team of retail store negligence injury lawyers at the Law Offices of Craig Goldenfarb, understands the store’s insurance company will likely try to minimize the compensation they payout. If you experience any of the following personal injuries while in a retail store, you should file a personal injury claim immediately:
- Slip and Falls

- Shopping cart injuries
- Overcrowding injuries, such as trampling at a holiday sale
- Parking lot injuries, like those that result from broken parking stops or holes in the concrete.
Construction Site Accidents
Construction site injuries are on the rise and according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, we have seen a 2% increase each year. It is the duty of a construction company to maintain a safe environment for employees and guests but more personal injuries continue to occur such as:
- Lack of fall protection for workers at elevated heights
- A lack of protection for workers on the ground to protect them from falling objects like debris
- Tripping hazards from construction materials and debris
- Missing guards or protections on power tools
- Dangerous or poorly maintained equipment
- Lack of safety precautions when working near power lines
- Lack of protection for workers in trenches
The company’s insurance carrier will try to minimize the compensation they pay out while the effects of your personal injuries continue to mount. Our team of construction site injury lawyers at the Law Offices of Craig Goldenfarb, P.A. understand your legal rights and are not only devoted to securing for you the maximum amount of compensation possible but also helping you recover from your injuries, so your life can get back on track as soon as possible.
