Slip and Fall Accident

Each year, thousands of Americans are injured in slip and fall accident – some even die as a result. When a person trips, slips, or falls due to dangerous conditions on another person''s property, the property owner can be held legally responsible. Property owners are bound by law to keep their property safe. However, property owners often act negligently or fail to keep their property properly maintained, which can result in unsafe conditions.

If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident caused by dangerous conditions on someone else''s property, you may be eligible to file a premise liability lawsuit to seek compensation for your losses . Please contact us today to speak with an experienced personal injury attorney to discuss your legal rights and options free of charge.

Slip and Fall Accident Causes

Slip and fall accidents are generally caused by preventable hazardous conditions. In many cases, a property owner''s negligence directly causes such conditions. Specifically, a property owner may have failed to notice the danger or known about the hazard but ignored it.

Some of the more common dangerous conditions that tend to go uncorrected by negligent property owners include:

Torn carpeting
Narrow stairs
Lack of handrails
Wet or slippery floor
Uneven pavement
Poor lighting

Liability in Slip and Fall Accidents

Since each case is different, determining liability in a slip and fall accident is not always as straightforward as it may seem. The injured party frequently must prove that it was the hazardous conditions that caused the accident and not one''s own carelessness. An experienced personal injury attorney can help slip and fall accident victims prove their case.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a slip and fall accident, you may be eligible to seek compensation for your pain and suffering, medical expenses, lost wages, and other losses you may have incurred.
