Santa Barbara Accident Law Firm

A variety of accidents can result in serious injury—such as slip and falls, accidents from unsafe products, dog bites, and various types of motor vehicle accidents. Our experienced accident attorneys in Santa Barbara at Maho & Prentice can protect your rights in an accident claim or lawsuit.

Slip and fall accidents

Property owners are responsible for maintaining safe grounds and buildings. Under premises liability law, an owner could be liable for damages if:

  • A property owner knows about or should have known about a dangerous condition
  • The owner (within a reasonable amount of time) fails to warn about or repair the hazard
  • Someone is injured because of unsafe conditions

If you sustained injuries, such as broken bones, a herniated disc, a concussion, or some other serious injury, there may be grounds to recover damages. Contact our Santa Barbara accident attorneys to find out.

Products liability

Another type of liability case involves dangerous products that harm people. Similar to property owners’ responsibility for safe premises, manufacturers are legally responsible for creating safe products. Product recalls occur every year that take unsafe products off the market—often after a number of people suffer serious injury or death. Our Santa Barbara accident law firm takes on large companies in products liability cases to pursue compensation on behalf of our clients. Defective tires, airbags, baby strollers, and cribs are just a few examples of cases involving dangerous products.

Dog bites

Dog owners who know that their pet has either bitten someone or is likely to bite can be held liable for damages under California law. Children are bitten more frequently than adults, mostly on the face or head. Damages can be sought for medical and psychological treatment and also for reconstructive surgery to handle disfigurement.

Motor vehicle accidents

Whether in a car, truck, motorcycle, or bicycle accident, many people suffer serious injury. Injuries common to auto accidents may include:

  • Whiplash
  • Head injury
  • Herniated discs
  • Spinal cord injury
  • Paralysis
  • Broken bones
  • Amputations
  • Internal injuries
