Types Of Slip-And-Fall Or Trip-And-Fall Cases We Take

The best way to find out whether you have a case is to call us and talk about it. As experienced personal injury trial attorneys, we understand exactly what to do to pursue an injury case. Here are the typical types of cases we take:

• Tripping and falling over something that is blocking the walkway, which can be on a sidewalk, in a store aisle, at your workplace or at a hospital
• Tripping over something protruding from the floor or walking area, such as a damaged curb, an unmarked parking block or, in a store or restaurant, an unsecured rug
• Stepping and falling into a pothole or deep crack in a sidewalk or flooring
• Slipping and falling on wet or slick surfaces. This can happen when a floor has been mopped but there are no signs indicating that it is wet or when liquid has pooled on the floor of an establishment such as a grocery store. This type of fall can also happen if it is raining or snowing outside and a public indoor space does not maintain dry floors.
• Losing footing and falling due to faulty or loose handrails on a stairway

Slip-and-falls and trip-and-falls can cause painful and debilitating injuries, such as broken wrists, torn ligaments, broken hips and even concussions. It is always a good idea to get checked out after you fall, especially if you hit your head. The injury and damage of a concussion is not always immediately apparent.
