Relentlessly Advocating on Your Behalf
Slip and fall accidents have the potential to cause severe injuries, some of which result in permanent consequences. They are caused by dangerous conditions, whether they are wet or slippery floors, uneven surfaces, defective sidewalks, torn carpeting, loose floorboards or stairs, potholes, nursing home neglect, poor traction, and more. Every year, countless people are unexpectedly injured in slip and fall accidents, which are almost always entirely preventable situations.
Depending on where your slip and fall accident occurred, the responsibility will shift. For example, if you slipped and fell on a commercial property, it is likely the property or business owner will be held liable for your injuries, loss of wages, and emotional distress. On residential property, the property owner or landlord will likely be the liable party. These stipulations and laws are put in place to ensure business and property owners are doing everything in their power to protect the public from possible injuries or accidents.
Common injuries following a slip and fall accident include, but are not limited to:
- Broken bones
- Head and brain injuries
- Soft tissue injuries
- Strained muscles or tendons
- Paralysis
- Sprained ligaments
- In extreme falls, death
