Denver Personal Injury Attorney
Although elevators were made to assist us in many ways, in some cases, accidents occur. Elevator related injuries happen more often than most people think. A sudden stop, the closing of doors or a malfunction can lead to a serious personal injury.
In the U.S., close to 11,000 people are seriously injured annually in elevator related accidents, and close to 2,000 are young children and teenagers. Some of the serious personal injuries that occur in elevator accidents include:
* Head trauma
* Back or spinal cord injury
* Broken or fractured bones
* Cuts, bruises, sprains
* Torn ligaments
* Amputations
Unfortunately, in worse cases, an elevator-related accident can result in a fatal injury. Children under 5 years of age are among the most vulnerable.
