Slip and Fall Accidents Can Happen Anywhere

When you leave your home, you never expect to fall and suffer an injury. Still, slip and fall incidents can happen almost anywhere, at any time, to anyone. 

Among the many places slip and fall accidents happen, the most common areas often include:

• Retail and grocery stores
• Hotels and resorts
• Office buildings
• Apartment complexes
• Amusement and water parks
• Stadiums and arenas
• Parking lots and garages

Wherever their location, slip and fall accidents are generally avoidable. 

These falls regularly occur due to:

• Wet floors
• Loose or uneven flooring and carpeting
• Poor lighting
• Cluttered walkways
• Water, snow, and ice
• Missing or defective guardrails and banisters
• Cracked pavement

Any person of any age can suffer a slip and fall accident, from younger individuals to seniors. However, older adults are some of the most likely to fall and sustain serious injuries. 

Seniors may be more susceptible to falling if something gets in their way or causes them to lose their balance. In a recent year, almost 400,000 older adults suffered falls in Georgia, costing billions in medical expenses and financial losses. 

If you’ve suffered injuries after a fall on another’s property, regardless of your age or circumstances, it’s important to discuss your situation with a slip and fall accident attorney. A lawyer can review the details of your case and determine the best route toward monetary recovery.

Medical Care for Slip and Fall Injuries Can Be Costly

A serious fall can result in significant injury. Depending on the specifics of your accident, slip and fall accidents can cause:

• Sprains and strains
• Head and brain injuries
• Back and spinal injuries
• Internal injuries
• Facial injuries

Unfortunately, slip and fall injuries can require substantial medical care, which means more expenses for you to handle. Some injuries also put you at risk of suffering long-term effects on your health, like chronic pain and nerve damage.

Allowing a personal injury lawyer to take over your case and pursue compensation on your behalf can make all the difference. A knowledgeable attorney can fight for your right to fair monetary recovery to help alleviate the burden of your expenses and losses. 

Proving Liability Is Key in a Slip and Fall Case

Property owners and occupiers owe others a certain duty of care to keep their premises safe. When they breach this duty, slip and fall accidents are more likely to occur. Proving the other party’s liability is key in your pursuit of compensation.

Based on your legal status on the property at the time of the incident — such as invitee or licensee — we can determine who was responsible for the premises and what duty they owed you. Then, we can take steps to prove the other party’s negligence.

Showing the responsible party is at fault for your accident is one of the most important parts of a slip and fall claim. A slip and fall lawyer can investigate your accident, gather pertinent evidence, and establish liability to strengthen your claim and seek favorable recovery for your case.
