Each year,
hospital emergency rooms treat about 8,700 people for
injuries, such as falls,
cuts and shocks, related to holiday lights, decorations and Christmas trees. In addition, Christmas trees are involved in about 400 fires annually, resulting in 20
deaths, 70 injuries and an average of more than $15 million in property loss and damage.
If you have been the victim of one of these types of accidents, it may be important to
contact an attorney who can help you protect your legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be
time limits within which you must commence suit.
