(EMAILWIRE.COM, May 09, 2012 ) Miami, FL - The Hickey Law Firm, P.A. has filed several cases in the past two months on behalf of victims who suffered serious, permanent injury due to another’s negligence. The victims in these cases all seek damages for injuries that resulted from organizations’ failure to maintain safe environments.
According to personal injury attorney John H. (Jack) Hickey, the victims all suffered serious, permanent injury due to negligence. One case occurred aboard a Royal Caribbean Cruise ship, while the other two took place in the state of Florida. In all three situations, the owners are responsible for maintaining safe, hazard-free conditions, and their failure to do so caused painful, debilitating injury. The injured cruise ship passenger suffered injuries when the improperly maintained booth he was sitting in collapsed.
Construction in a Florida condominium caused one woman to trip on a dangerous, unmarked change in flooring, and the third victim slipped and fell on fertilizer pellets that obstructed a public walkway.
“We are honored to fight for victims who were injured in preventable accidents like these,” Hickey stated. “Facility owners are responsible for maintaining a safe, hazard-free environment. If basic safety standards had been followed, these horrible accidents would never have happened.”
The lawyers at the Hickey Law Firm, P.A. offer 64 years of experience defending their clients rights, and Hickey has fought for nearly two decades to obtain justice for injured people. In the aftermath of the Costa Concordia disaster early this year, journalists around the world turned to Hickey for his perspective and insight into the wreck’s legal ramifications and what passengers and their families could expect. The Hickey Law Firm, P.A. attorneys’ knowledge of state, federal and maritime law is an asset to clients dealing with complex legal issues pertaining to personal injury and maritime matters.
