Broken bones can happen in many ways, and they often occur because someone was careless. At Callisto Claims, we help people with broken bone injury claims caused by different types of accidents.
Here are some common causes:
● Slips, Trips, and Falls: Wet floors, uneven pavements, or poorly lit stairways can make people fall. These falls can cause small cracks or severe fractures, especially in older adults.
● Road Traffic Accidents: Car crashes, bike accidents, or being hit as a pedestrian can lead to broken arms, legs, or ribs. Even passengers can get injured when another driver is negligent.
● Workplace Accidents: Falls from ladders, being hit by heavy objects, or being injured by unsafe machinery often lead to fractures. Employers have a duty to keep workplaces safe.
● Sporting Accidents: Poor supervision, unsafe sports grounds, or faulty equipment can cause broken bones during games or training.
● Defective or Unsafe Equipment: Broken playgrounds, faulty tools, or damaged public equipment can lead to sudden accidents.
Sometimes, health conditions such as weak bones or stress fractures from repetitive work or sports increase the risk. No matter the cause, you have a legal right to claim if someone else was at fault.
Callisto Claims can help you understand your options and guide you through the process.
