If you’ve have had a slip and fall accident due to someone else’s negligence, did you receive injuries? It doesn’t matter if you were in a store, a business or on someone’s sidewalk or parking lot. You deserve to be compensated for any injuries received due to their negligence. Does the owner know there was a problem to begin with? This is important to being compensated for your injuries.
An example of slip and fall injuries would be a broken bone, a concussion or even a jarred or twisted back. These injuries can leave you in pain, off work and with medical bills that you didn’t deserve to have. If you are elderly, you are more prone to a slip and fall. You could easily break a hip or need a knee replacement. You could end up needing surgery and rehab. If you’re in a store or restaurant and there is a doormat that is not level and you trip over it and fall and become injured, they are liable for your injuries because they knew the carpeting was not even.
If you’re walking on the sidewalk in front of a home and the sidewalk is deteriorated and unlevel and you fall, there’s a good chance you can place a claim against the homeowner or business. They are responsible for maintaining a safe area around their property. You can also be injured due to water on the floor of a business and even due to poor lighting. If you’re in a parking lot, parking garage or any other area that is not well lit and you fall, the owner can be held liable for your injuries. Even if you rent from a landlord and you’ve notified the landlord of a dangerous condition that was not corrected, your landlord can be held liable for your injuries.
