Pursing a Premises Liability Claim

After a slip and fall accident, your lawyer may recommend filing a lawsuit for premises liability against the owner or manager of the property where you were injured. To win, you will need to show that the property was in an unreasonably dangerous or hazardous condition at the time of the accident. Your lawyer will likely seek records of the property’s maintenance and inspection history to show whether – and how often – the premises have undergone a safety check. For instance, if your lawyer can prove that it is part of a grocery store manager’s duties to regularly check for spilled liquids in the aisles and one day, he or she failed to do so, you may have a claim if you slipped on spilled milk in the dairy aisle that day.

Compensation for A Slip and Fall Accident

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

 

What to Do After a Slip and Fall

If you’ve been injured in a slip and fall, it’s best to act quickly before critical evidence vanishes or is removed from the scene.

  • 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.
