Slip and Fall Injuries

When someone slips, trips or falls because of a dangerous or hazardous condition on another’s property, that can be classified as a slip and fall personal injury. Ice, snow, water, poor lighting or a broken stair are all conditions that could lead to an accident.

Slip and fall accidents are commonplace and can result in minor injuries, but a bad fall could cause spinal injuries, broken bones or permanent medical conditions that require expensive and long-term medical care.

It is the responsibility of all property owners to exercise reasonable care in investigating and maintaining their property to ensure it is free from hazards that could cause injury. If a property owner cannot immediately fix a hazard, he or she must post signs to warn visitors of the danger. Failure to fix a known hazard or properly investigate and maintain property can easily result in a situation that causes a severe slip and fall injury to an innocent victim.
