The holiday season is a time for joy and celebration, but it also comes with increased risks of accidents. At David Sanchez Law Group, we want you to stay safe with our 12 Days of Holiday Safety guide, here are tips to Avoid Accidents and Injuries in December:

Secure Your Decorations

Ensure your decorations are properly secured to avoid falling objects or injuries. For any accidents involving property negligence, contact us to discuss your options.

Practice Ladder Safety

When hanging lights or ornaments, ensure proper ladder use. Ladder-related injuries are common, and if caused by faulty equipment, our legal services can help you file a claim.

Prevent Electrical Hazards

Overloading outlets can lead to electrical fires. Use surge protectors and check cords for damage. If an electrical hazard leads to injury, consult our premises liability services.

Watch for Ice and Snow

Icy sidewalks and parking lots can cause slip-and-fall injuries. If you’re hurt due to poorly maintained walkways, learn how to take legal action on our slip-and-fall accident page.

Cook Safely

Keep flammable items away from the stove, and never leave cooking food unattended. Accidents involving kitchen fires may require legal guidance—contact our attorneys for assistance.

Be Cautious with Candles

Candles bring warmth but can also pose fire risks. Always extinguish them before leaving the room. If negligence leads to a fire, explore our legal services for support.

Drink Responsibly

Holiday parties often involve alcohol, so designate a driver if needed. For car accident-related injuries, visit our auto accident attorney page.

Drive Defensively

Winter driving conditions can be hazardous. Learn more about your legal rights after a car accident on our truck accident attorney page.

Secure Your Christmas Tree

Anchor your tree to prevent tipping and minimize fire risks. Injuries involving Christmas tree mishaps may be eligible for compensation—contact us to learn more.

Supervise Children and Pets

Holiday decorations and toys can be hazardous. If an injury occurs due to unsafe products, check our personal injury legal services for advice.

Avoid Overexertion

Pace yourself during the busy season to prevent strain or injury. If overexertion leads to an accident, we’re here to help—get in touch.

Plan for Emergencies

Keep a first-aid kit, fire extinguisher, and emergency contacts handy. For legal assistance following an emergency injury, call David Sanchez Law Group.
