What to Do After a Slip and Fall Accident

If you’ve been injured in a slip and fall, act quickly before critical evidence vanishes or is removed from the scene. At a minimum:

  • Inform the property owner or manager.
  • If applicable, fill out an incident report.
  • Contact the police to secure an accident report.
  • Take photos and videos of the accident scene.
  • Record the names and contact information of the property owner, tenant, or manager on-site at the time of the accident.
  • Ask eyewitnesses for their names and contact information.
  • Collect and preserve the shoes that the victim was wearing at the time of the fall.

Because key evidence can be erased or forgotten, it is vital to gather as much information as possible at the accident scene. 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.

Seeking Compensation for Your Slip and Fall

After an accident, our personal injury attorneys may recommend filing a lawsuit for premises liability. Through the process, we will gather additional 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. Our Solvang personal injury attorneys know how challenging a slip and fall case can be. In addition to suffering from serious injuries like broken bones, TBI, and soft tissue sprains, you are likely accruing astronomical medical bills. As such, be sure to 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, we 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
