Slip and fall accidents are most often caused by defects on the walking surface. They also might be caused by foreign substances that are slippery or sticky on a walking area. From spills in grocery stores to disrepaired sidewalks, slip and fall accidents can present themselves even in the most unlikely spaces, such as unmarked surfaces that are uneven. Slip and fall accidents can also be caused by such unsafe conditions as:

a slip and fall accident
  • Defects in a walking surface that may not be apparent, such as cracks, gaps or holes.
  • Disregarded spills in grocery stores, restaurants, and other public areas
  • Icy or Snowy pathways during inclement weather
  • Dilapidated buildings or unmarked construction sites
  • Unlevel sidewalks or walkways
  • Broken stairs and/or missing handrails on ramps or staircases
  • Unguarded swimming pools

In most cases, the law states that compensation is to be provided for slip and fall accidents that could have been prevented. These accidents can result in serious injuries, such as brain or spinal issues. Slip and fall cases are very serious and might even require medical treatment.

Why Should I Hire a Personal Injury Attorney?

How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?

Most personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning there are no upfront costs or out-of-pocket legal fees. You pay nothing unless we recover for you. The fee is calculated as an agreed-upon percentage of your final recovery.

How do I know if I have a valid personal injury claim?

You likely have a valid claim if another party’s negligence, recklessness, or failure to maintain a safe environment directly caused your injury, resulting in measurable harm—such as medical expenses, lost wages, or physical pain and suffering. During a free initial consultation, an attorney will review police reports, evidence, and medical records to evaluate liability and case strength.

Who will actually handle my case once I sign up?

At some large law firms, your file may be passed down to junior associates or non-lawyer case managers. During your initial consultation, ask who your point of contact will be, how often you will hear from them, and who will represent you if your case goes to court. Glen is personally available to every client and stays your point of contact throughout your claim.

Should I talk to the insurance adjuster before consulting a lawyer?

It is best to consult an attorney first. Insurance adjusters work to minimize the payout for their company and may use your early or recorded statements to dispute liability or downplay your injuries. Once you hire a lawyer, they manage all communications and settlement discussions with the insurance companies on your behalf.
