Slip & Fall

Understanding Slip and Fall Accidents

Slip and fall accidents are common and can happen anywhere, from grocery stores and office buildings to private homes and public sidewalks. These accidents can lead to severe injuries, such as broken bones, head injuries, and spinal damage. At Turnbull Brockmeyer Law Group, we are dedicated to helping victims of slip and fall accidents obtain the compensation they deserve.

Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents

Slip and fall accidents can be caused by a variety of hazardous conditions, including:

  • Wet or Slippery Floors: Spills, leaks, or recently cleaned surfaces that are not properly marked.
  • Uneven Surfaces: Cracked sidewalks, loose flooring, or worn-out carpets.
  • Obstructions: Items left in walkways, such as boxes, wires, or debris.
  • Poor Lighting: Inadequate lighting in stairwells, hallways, or parking lots.
  • Weather Conditions: Snow, ice, or rain that is not promptly cleared from walkways.
Property Owner Responsibility

Property owners and managers have a legal duty to maintain safe premises for visitors. This responsibility includes regularly inspecting the property, promptly addressing hazards, and providing adequate warnings of any potential dangers. When they fail to do so, and someone gets injured as a result, they can be held liable for the damages.

Our Services Include

  • Thorough Investigation: We will conduct a detailed investigation of the accident scene, gather evidence, and identify witnesses to build a strong case.
  • Proving Liability: We will work to prove that the property owner’s negligence directly caused your injuries.
  • Medical Documentation: We will help you obtain and organize your medical records to demonstrate the extent of your injuries and their impact on your life.
  • Negotiating Settlements: Our attorneys will negotiate with insurance companies to secure fair compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages.
  • Litigation: If necessary, we are prepared to take your case to court to ensure you receive the justice you deserve.
