Slip-And-Fall Injury Attorneys
If you fall and injure yourself at the grocery store, if you trip in the parking lot of a mall, or if you slip on a spill at a restaurant, you may have a premises liability lawsuit against the owners of the property. Slip and fall injuries can be more serious than people think. OSHA guidelines are very strict when it comes to safety requirements in commercial establishments and job sites, so it is possible your case may be a strong one.
In premises liability cases, we must prove that you suffered serious injury and that the cause of the accident was a dangerous or hazardous condition. But we must further prove that the owner of the property knew or should have known of the dangerous condition and failed to act upon it in a reasonable manner or within a reasonable time frame. Our personal injury attorneys have handled countless premises liability cases successfully.
File a Report and Contact Our Firm Immediately
It is important to file a customer incident report with the store, restaurant or whatever business had the unsafe premises that caused the injury. Get the names and contact information of any witnesses of your slip-and-fall accident. Get copies of the report and contact information from the owner of the premises. It is also important to contact a lawyer so that important evidence is preserved.
We will listen to you as you describe in your own words what happened. We will then investigate to document the hazard, demonstrate the negligence, identify all liable parties and hold them accountable for it. We can assess whether your claim has legal merit and outline your legal options. We will be honest with you in our opinion of the validity and the value of your case.
