If you slip and fall on someone else’s property, you may be able to recover compensation for your injuries. Every property owner has a legal responsibility to maintain safe and secure property conditions at all times. Unfortunately, many property owners do not employ reasonable care in maintaining their properties. For example, sometimes a property owner is aware of a dangerous condition on the property, but fails to take any action to repair the condition. Or, the property owner should have been aware of and should have taken the necessary action to repair the dangerous condition, but failed to take any action.

Slip and fall accidents occur every day throughout the country. From relatively simple accidents (such as slipping on a wet spot) to more complicated accidents (such as worksite accidents), slip and fall accidents can happen for numerous reasons. Some of the more common causes of slip and fall accidents include:

  • Wet floors caused by foreign liquid substance;
  • Floors that have recently been mopped or waxed;
  • Torn, ripped, or uneven carpeting;
  • Broken, loose, or uneven wooden floors;
  • Improperly constructed staircases, including broken staircases or handrails;
  • Cluttered areas and floors, such as loose cords; and
  • Potholes in parking lots and on sidewalks.
