What to Do After a Slip and Fall Accident

If you’ve been injured in a slip and fall accident, act quickly before critical evidence vanishes or is removed from the scene. At a minimum, our attorneys recommend that you do the following as soon as possible after your fall:

• Inform the property owner or premises manager of your fall.
• If applicable, fill out an incident report.
• Contact the police department to secure an accident report.
• Take photos and videos of the area where the fall occurred.
• Record the names and contact information of the property owner, tenant, or manager on-site at the time of the accident.
• Gather eyewitness contact information.
• Seek medical assistance.
• Collect and preserve the shoes that the victim was wearing at the time of the fall.

In addition to gathering this information on your own, however, be sure to contact an experienced personal injury attorney to help you preserve your claim and to thoroughly investigate the incident.

Compensation for Your Slip and Fall

Our California personal injury attorneys know how much a slip and fall injury can impact your life. In addition to serious injuries like broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, and soft tissue sprains, you are likely accruing astronomical medical bills. Speak with us about seeking reimbursement for your medical expenses as well as compensation for your physical and emotional injuries. Through the insurance claims process, our lawyers will pursue compensation for your:

• Medical expenses
• Lost wages
• Physical pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Disfigurement
• Disability
• Reduced or lost earning capacity
• Reduced quality of life

After a slip and fall accident, our Buena Park attorneys may recommend filing a premises liability lawsuit. To prepare your case, we will gather evidence in the form of business records, including whether – and how often – a site has been inspected, cleaned, or repaired. We will also collect records regarding whether similar incidents have occurred on the premises. This will allow us to prove to an insurance company (and, when necessary, a Buena Park judge or jury) that the premises were in an “unreasonably hazardous” condition at the time of your accident.
