Slip & Fall Injuries
We’ve all heard stories about people getting injured after slipping and falling on puddles of water in a grocery store or tripping over unsightly potholes in a parking lot – and maybe you’ve been the unfortunate victim of such circumstances yourself. Unfortunately, accidents happen, but carelessness or negligence is often a factor when a slip and fall injury occurs on someone else’s property.
In these cases, it is essential to know your legal rights. To determine liability for an injury related to a slip or fall, you must prove that someone else is legally responsible and defend against claims that your carelessness may have caused the accident. For example, property owners are responsible for keeping their premises reasonably safe. When they fail, and visitors get hurt, the property owner is liable. For instance, if a grocery store fails to clean up spills or leaks promptly, it may be responsible for any slip and fall accidents.
You’ll need to answer whether a reasonable person would have been aware of the hazardous conditions, and whether the property owner had sufficient time and opportunity to make the situation less dangerous for visitors or patrons before the accident happened. To determine liability for a slip and fall injury, the expertise of an experienced attorney is invaluable.
Recovering from an accident is hard enough without navigating a complex and potentially overwhelming legal landscape, especially when insurance companies are involved. Knowing your rights and having a knowledgeable attorney on your side can help ensure the best possible financial outcome for you and your family. At the same time, you focus on more important things like healing, recuperating, and getting your life back to normal.
