We talk about hazards, but we don't always talk about the slip and fall injuries that can be sustained on a property due to owner negligence.

Slip And Fall Injuries

Slips and falls are common but just because you slipped, doesn’t always mean you have a case. When it comes to personal injury, you have to prove that a) a property owner knew about a hazard and b) knowingly failed to remedy it. We often talk about hazards like poor lighting, broken railings or stairs, poorly maintained sidewalks, obstructions in walking paths, improperly secured patio furniture, and wet or slick floors, but we don’t always talk about the slip and fall injuries that can be sustained on a property due to the owner’s negligence or carelessness:

  • Broken or fractured bones
  • Dislocated shoulders
  • Torn rotator cuffs
  • Ruptured discs and spinal cord injuries
  • Burns
  • Head or traumatic brain injuries

These injuries can lead to chronic pain, surgery, and the inability to return to work.

As personal injury attorneys, we fight exclusively for the rights of accident victims to get the compensation they deserve.
