What Is a Slip and Fall Accident?
A slip and fall accident happens when a person loses their balance and falls due to a dangerous condition on someone else’s property. These conditions might include:
- Wet or slippery floors with no warning signs
- Uneven sidewalks or loose tiles
- Poor lighting in stairwells or parking lots
- Broken handrails or steps
- Debris or obstacles left in walkways
- Leaks, spills, or recently mopped floors
Property owners, managers, and businesses have a legal duty to keep their premises reasonably safe. If they fail to do so and someone is injured as a result, they may be held liable for the resulting damages. A knowledgeable slip and fall accident attorney from our firm can help you prove it.
