The defendants in slip or trip and fall injury cases can be private property owners, as well as municipal entities. In either case, insurance companies will try to minimize your claim in order to protect their clients. We will make sure you provide the evidence the insurance companies need to see in order to take your claim seriously.
There is a big difference between "slip and fall" accidents and "trip and fall" accidents. By filing the wrong type of claim, you could miss the chance to secure full compensation. I will take a close look at your case to make sure you file the right type of personal injury claim:
- Slip and fall accident: These cases are very fact sensitive, as both plaintiff and defendant have to exercise ordinary care. If hazardous conditions, such as spills, are neglected for long periods of time, property owners can and should be held responsible.
- Trip and fall accident: These cases are usually easier to prove. If there is a structural or maintenance problem, such as uneven sidewalks, cracks in floors and broken steps, property owners must provide proper warnings until it can be fixed.
Slip or trip and fall accidents can lead to all types of injuries, including life-altering brain and spinal injuries. When preparing your claim, I will take all future medical expenses into account in order to make sure you get the immediate and long-term compensation you deserve.
