Injuries From Improper Signage

Legal Assistance from a Sacramento Personal Injury Lawyer

Any dangers that cannot be immediately repaired or permanently exist must be indicated with clear signage that warns those passing of any risks present. If this important and legally-required safety step is not followed, property owners could be held liable for any injuries that may occur as a result of these dangers. This can be true for workplaces, retail establishments, and even public properties.

If you have been injured by a property feature that was not clearly indicated by proper signage, you may be eligible for compensation for your injuries as a result of premises liability laws. A knowledgeable Sacramento personal injury attorney from Smolich and Smolich may be able to fight on your behalf to help you recover the financial benefits you deserve. Attorney James Smolich is one of a select few legal professionals to be named a Certified Specialist in Workers’ Compensation law from the State Bar of California. Our reputable firm has served clients around Northern California for more than 40 years.

Many Signs for Many Dangers

Signage for hazards can come in almost as many forms as the hazards themselves. The United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration has gone to great lengths to standardize warning signage required around commonly-occurring hazards. In fact, you probably see some signs like these every day because of how commonplace they have become.

Workplace signage must be posted in the presence of dangers, including:

  • Chemical hazards
  • Fire hazards
  • Electrical hazards
  • Poison hazards
  • Hot surfaces
  • Noise hazards

Additionally, signs must also be present to indicate where emergency features are, such as fire extinguishers, chemical showers, and facility exists. Each sign must be a certain size, and many must also be a particular color, depending on its purpose and information.

  • I am so happy to have such knowledgeable and helpful people to help during this difficult time. Sam was super responsive and always willing to answer questions, regardless how big or small.

    “My circumstances were a bit unusual - my husband applied for Social Security Disability, but unfortunately passed away during the review process. Sam and Sarah worked diligently to see the case through to the end, and provide our family the benefits we were owed. A special thank you to Sam, he was always very responsive, willing to go above and beyond, and willing to answer questions whether big or small. Thank you, Smolich and Smolich!”

  • Thank you Sarah and team!

    “I needed to apply for disability and knew nothing about how to go about it. Sarah called me and explained the process and assured me everything would be okay. Her staff went online to fill out my application. She and Marlena kept me updated every step of the way. Within a short time a decision was made in my favor. I cannot tell you how many sleepless nights I had prior to meeting with the team. I would recommend them to anyone who needs help in this area. Thank you so much for all your hard work. Without you I could have never done this.”
