Slip & Fall Accident
Wondering if you have a slip and fall case?
It boils down to proving that your injury resulted from someone else’s negligence. Contrary to common belief, slip and fall cases hinge on simple negligence rather than intentional or extremely reckless behavior. The legal standard is straightforward: demonstrating that the other party failed to exercise the level of care expected of a reasonable person, resulting in your injuries. You only need to establish that it’s more likely than not that their negligence led to your harm.
Here are some scenarios where you might have a valid slip and fall claim:
- A gas station neglects to clean up a spill promptly, causing you to slip and break your arm.
- A crowded nightclub continues admitting guests despite safety concerns, leading to your fall and a concussion.
- While entering a shop, you trip on a cracked sidewalk the owner failed to maintain, resulting in significant injuries.
- At the gym, an unnoticed water bottle on the floor causes you to trip and severely sprain your ankle.
- In a large store, items left in the aisle cause you to slip and suffer serious injuries.
- Overcrowded store displays lead to a fall requiring hospitalization and surgery.
Whether from the same level or an elevated height, slip and fall accidents can result in legal claims if reasonable care wasn’t exercised by the responsible party.
