Holding Negligent Property Owners Accountable
A fall might seem like a minor accident — until it leaves you with broken bones, head trauma, or a spinal injury that changes your life. Slip, trip, and fall accidents are among the most common causes of serious injuries in Texas, and they often happen because a property owner failed to keep their premises safe.
At McAlpine Law, we represent victims of dangerous property conditions, whether they occur in a store, apartment complex, workplace, or public area. We know how to prove negligence, counter the excuses property owners use, and fight for the compensation you need to recover.
