Slip and Falls

Experienced Legal Guidance for Slip and Fall Accident Victims

Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere—sidewalks, retail stores, workplaces, or parking lots. Often, these incidents are the result of unsafe conditions that could have been prevented, leaving victims with painful injuries, significant medical bills, and challenges in their daily lives. Unfortunately, slips and falls account for more than one million emergency room visits annually in the U.S. Older adults are particularly vulnerable, with falls being the leading cause of injury-related deaths among individuals aged 65 and older.

We help victims of these preventable accidents seek justice and secure the compensation they deserve. If you or a loved one has experienced a serious slip and fall injury due to unsafe conditions, our experienced legal team can help you navigate the complexities of filing a claim and recover the damages you deserve.

Types of Slip and Fall Cases Our Firm Handles

Many slip and fall accidents occur due to a property owner’s negligence in maintaining safe conditions. Common hazards that lead to these incidents include:

Wet or Slippery Floors

Unmarked wet floors, leaking pipes, and spills that haven’t been cleaned up create serious hazards.

Uneven Surfaces

Cracked sidewalks, potholes, or uneven flooring can easily cause someone to trip and fall.

Poor Lighting

Dim or non-functional lighting can make spotting obstacles and hazards difficult.

Obstructed Walkways

Loose cables, scattered debris, and other obstacles are all trip risks.

Faulty Handrails and Stairs

Broken or unstable handrails and poorly maintained stairs increase the risk of falls.

Property owners are responsible for promptly addressing these hazards or posting warnings when immediate repairs aren’t possible. Failing to do so can make them legally liable for accidents and injuries that result from their negligence.
