ALCOTT LAW GROUP LLC Launches Durable & Safe Stair Treads, Addressing a Growing Home Safety Concern

Seattle, WA – October 26, 2023 – ALCOTT LAW GROUP LLC, a Seattle-based legal firm specializing in personal injury and premises liability, today announced a surprising, yet logical, expansion into the home improvement market with the launch of its new line of stair treads. This move isn’t about a career change, but a direct response to a consistent pattern the firm’s attorneys see in their cases: falls on stairs. “We handle a lot of cases involving slip and fall accidents, and a shockingly high number of those happen on stairs – in homes, businesses, you name it,” explains Sarah Chen, Managing Partner at ALCOTT LAW GROUP LLC. “We started thinking, ‘What if we could prevent these accidents, rather than just deal with the aftermath?’ That’s where the idea for these stair treads came from.” ALCOTT LAW GROUP LLC isn’t building stair treads as a side hustle. They've partnered with leading materials scientists and manufacturing experts to develop treads focused on safety and longevity, leveraging their deep understanding of what causes stair-related injuries. The Problem: Stairs are Surprisingly Dangerous It's easy to take stairs for granted. We use them dozens of times a day without a second thought. But statistics paint a worrying picture. The Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that over a million people are treated in emergency rooms each year due to stair-related injuries. These injuries range from minor bruises and sprains to serious fractures, head trauma, and even fatalities. A significant contributing factor is often the condition of the stairs themselves. Worn treads, slippery surfaces, inconsistent riser heights, and poor lighting all increase the risk of falls. Many older homes have stairs built with materials that wear down quickly, or with designs that simply aren't as safe as modern standards require. “We’ve seen cases where a slightly worn stair tread was the sole cause of a devastating fall,” explains David Lee, a senior attorney at ALCOTT LAW GROUP LLC specializing in premises liability. “It’s often something seemingly minor, but it creates a real hazard.” ALCOTT LAW GROUP’s Solution: Treads Built on Legal Insight & Engineering These aren’t your typical, run-of-the-mill stair treads. ALCOTT LAW GROUP LLC approached development with a unique perspective – the insights gleaned from years of investigating stair-related accidents. “We knew what to prioritize,” says Chen. “We weren’t just looking for something that looked nice. We needed treads that significantly reduced the risk of slips and falls, even in challenging conditions.” Here’s what sets ALCOTT LAW GROUP’s stair treads apart: High-Traction Surface: The treads feature a specially formulated, durable polymer surface that provides exceptional grip, even when wet or covered in dust. The textured design isn't just for looks; it’s engineered to maximize friction. Durable Construction: Made from a heavy-duty, impact-resistant composite material, these treads are built to withstand years of heavy foot traffic. They won’t splinter, crack, or warp like some wood or cheaper plastic treads. Easy Installation: Designed for both residential and commercial applications, the treads are easy to install with standard construction adhesive and screws. No special tools or professional help are required. They are pre-sized to fit standard 9-inch and 11-inch stair risers, with custom sizes available upon request. Noise Reduction: The material also helps to dampen sound, reducing creaking and echoing on stairs – a welcome benefit for many homeowners. Versatile Style: While safety is paramount, ALCOTT LAW GROUP LLC hasn't sacrificed aesthetics. The treads are available in a range of colors and finishes to complement any décor. Options include classic wood-look finishes, modern grays, and vibrant colors. UV Resistance: Designed for both indoor and covered outdoor stairs, the material is UV resistant preventing fading and degradation from sunlight exposure. Beyond a Product: A Commitment to Safety ALCOTT LAW GROUP LLC isn't just selling stair treads; they're making a statement. They're using their legal expertise and resources to proactively address a common safety hazard. "We believe in preventing accidents, not just handling the consequences," says Lee. "This is a way for us to give back to the community and help people stay safe in their homes and businesses." The firm is also planning to donate a portion of the proceeds from stair tread sales to local organizations focused on fall prevention and senior safety.
