California Lawyers for Elevator Accident Victims
The nation's 600,000 elevators cause injuries that send more than 9,800 people to the hospital each year, according to the Consumer Products Safety Commission.
Elevators in office and retail buildings, in construction sites, in apartment buildings, aboard ships, in homes, in workplaces and elsewhere can cause devastating injuries and fatalities when they fail to perform as intended.

Automatic doors can malfunction, causing lacerations and even amputations of limbs. Elevator cars that mislevel or do not properly align with the floor can cause passengers to trip and fall when they exit. Some elevators may not be designed to fail-safe.
Like a bus or an airplane, an elevator is a common carrier and must meet a higher standard of safety than a personal car or truck.
