It’s not uncommon to fall on food that is spilled on the floor at LAX airport or at any other airport. When a passenger is in a hurry and spills food, the individual will be hard pressed to stop, clean it up, throw the debris and sticky food away, and then continue on his or her own journey. Instead, it is the responsibility and liability of the airport management company to secure and clean the LAX airport, to keep it safe for all passengers using the airport.
When you give our office a call, you will be able to speak to an attorney who knows what to do to recover a full compensation package from the big insurance companies representing an airport such as the LAX airport.

Can I Sue for Being Injured at LAX Airport?
Yes, we can sue the property owner of the LAX airport and any surrounding airport where you are injured. The property owner and maintenance department of that property is responsible to keep the property safe at all times. In airports, it is normal that there is a high level of foot traffic, that means that the maintenance department needs to be on their toes every minute that the airport is open to the public.
It is no excuse that a passenger or guest to the airport at LAX, or any other airport, is injured, as there is expected to be many hundreds and thousands of people walking around an airport at all times of the day. Airports make money from flights to vendors to stores ONLY if people are walking around the airport! For that reason, airports should be the safest areas where a person could physically walk, but sometimes they are not that safe at all, are they?
If you are injured in an airport such as LAX or any other major airport, just call our Los Angeles case lawyers. We can file a lawsuit on your behalf, and get you the money you need for a full recovery compensation package, related to your personal injuries and lost wages.
