Slip & Trip Hazards
At the center of every slip or trip and fall accident claim is a hazard that caused the claimant to suffer a serious injury. Our law firm knows how to investigate any claim to find not only what caused the accident but also why that source makes the defendant liable.
Trip and slip hazards that are common include:
- Wet or slick tile floors
- Uplifted carpeting
- Broken wooden floors
- Missing or damaged handrails
- Uneven steps and stairs
- Dimly lit walkways
When a defendant has been deemed liable for the injuries suffered by a claimant, the court can order them to pay for their related damages. However, in most cases, when a defendant knows that they are liable, they will try to offer a settlement amount first, so all parties can avoid the complications and costs of going to trial.
Serious Injuries Caused by Slips & Falls
Some insurance companies try to act like slip and fall accident claims are exaggerated. They posit that no serious injuries can happen from falling over because it is “not that serious” of an accident. To counter their argument, we can work with medical experts who treated and understand your injuries. With the testimony of a medical professional, we might be able to quickly defeat any such attempts from the opposition.
People who suffer a slip and fall accident can experience life-changing injuries, such as:
- Head injuries
- Back injuries
- Knee and hip injuries
- Broken bones
Elders are the most likely to suffer severe injuries after a slip and fall accident. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) routinely shows that slip and fall accidents are among the leading causes of preventable injuries among the elderly population. Such accidents are also one of the most common causes of wrongful death among elders, too. Our firm can help you with a wrongful death claim if you lost an elderly loved one because a property owner failed to keep their land or building clear of trip and slip hazards.
Security Footage Used as Evidence
Let us know if your slip and fall accident happened in a retail store or commercial property. If it did, then there could be security camera footage available that caught your accident on film. Getting that footage requires us to move quickly, though. Some security systems will automatically erase unsaved footage within a matter of weeks or sooner. The defendant might not save that footage because they know it could be damaging to their case. Call 248-838-0635 right away to get us on your side, so we can demand any available footage before it is “inadvertently lost.”
