WORK PLACE INJURIES

Texas Slip and Fall Attorney

A slip and fall accident can happen nearly anywhere.  A person may be injured in a slip in fall accident at a mall, public or government property, supermarket, hotel, amusement park, apartment complex, and construction site, among many other locations.

If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident on another personŐs or companyŐs property, you may be entitled to compensation for your slip and fall injuries, medical bills, lost wages, subsequent medical treatment, and pain and suffering.

If you are injured on someone else's property because of a hazard or dangerous condition that the owner should have been aware of or was aware of and ignored, you may have the right to compensation for your injuries.  Do not immediately assume the blame for your slip and fall accident.  A slip and fall accident can be the fault of a negligent property owner or hazardous walking conditions and is therefore not the fault of the injured party.

You may have a claim for compensation for your injuries if you have suffered a slip and fall accident on a residential or business property due to:

  • An unseen foreign object placed in your walking path
  • An uneven or unstable walking surface (i.e., a broken staircase, an uneven sidewalk, broken tiles, loose carpeting, potholes)
  • A neglected slippery or slick walking surface (i.e. over waxed floor, wet floor)
  • Fallen merchandise or neglected merchandise

To help determine who is to blame for your slip and fall injury, try asking yourself the following questions in regard to your accident:

  • If you slipped on a spill at a commercial property, had the spill been there long enough that the property owner should have been aware of it?
  • Was there adequate warning of the dangerous condition (i.e., a caution sign or proper barrier)?
  • Has the property owner established a standard cleaning/maintenance schedule for the premises?
  • Did you have a valid reason for being at the site of the slip and fall accident?
  • If you tripped over something, was there a good reason for this object to have been there? Could this object have been safely and conveniently placed elsewhere?
  • Could your slip and fall accident been prevented by proper or adequate lighting?
  • Were you paying reasonable attention to your surroundings at the time of the slip and fall accident?
  • Would a reasonable person have been able to avoid the slip and fall accident under similar circumstances?
