Do You Need A Lawyer For A Slip And Fall Case?

Slip and fall claims are complicated. Talk to a lawyer after a slip and fall accident to understand and preserve your rights. If you have serious injuries, you could be eligible for more compensation.

Proving Fault 

To hold a person or business accountable, we need to prove fault. Your lawyer must prove someone else was negligent in the safety or upkeep of their property. This is an area of the law called premises liability.

Premises Liability

Property owners must act carefully to ensure a fall or injury is not likely to happen. Owners must be aware of any potential hazards on their property and take action to repair any dangerous condition that arises. The injured person must be able to prove the conditions were an unreasonable risk to others. This does not include obvious dangers that a person should be aware of.

To prove a property owner was negligent or knew of a dangerous condition on their property, you must prove:

  • a dangerous condition existed
  • the owner knew or should have known of the condition and did not correct it or properly warn others
  • or, the dangerous condition was there for so long that the property owner was negligent in being unaware

If your lawyer is able to prove these things, you should have a successful claim. However, it is important to have an experienced lawyer. To get the best compensation, find a local attorney that specializes in injury claims.
