HOW A SLIP AND FALL INCIDENT ATTORNEY CAN HELP

Navigating a slip and fall claim can be complex and time-consuming. You'll need to gather evidence to support your claim of negligence and premises liability against the business owners and/or governmental entities, and negotiate with the parties responsible for your injuries. This process can be particularly challenging without specialized legal training.

Many insurance companies may use stall tactics to deny or delay your claim. Having an experienced slip and fall incident lawyer by your side can make a significant difference. We handle all the intricate details of your case from start to finish, allowing you to focus on your recovery.

NEGLIGENCE IN SLIP AND FALL INCIDENT CASES

Property owners have a duty of care to ensure their premises are safe and to warn visitors of any potential hazards. Negligence in a slip and fall case means the property owner either created a dangerous condition or failed to address or warn about a known hazard. Examples of negligence include:

Not cleaning up a spill or putting up a wet floor sign after a spill
Allowing frayed carpets that cause tripping
Failing to repair a broken banister
Leaving small equipment on public walkways

COMMON CAUSES OF SLIP AND FALL INCIDENTS

Slip and fall incidents can occur in various locations, including grocery stores, parking lots, homes, and workplaces. Common causes include:

Spilled liquids
Negligent cleaning schedules
Greasy or freshly waxed/mopped floors
Lack of wet floor warning signs
Dangerous floor surfaces
Inadequate lighting
Electrical cords

HOW LONG AFTER A SLIP AND FALL CAN YOU SUE

In California, you generally have two years from the date of a slip and fall incident to file a claim. However, if the incident occurred on government property, you only have six months to file. For minors, the time limit extends to two years after their 18th birthday. It's crucial to file within these timeframes, as failing to do so will result in losing the right to pursue a claim.

WHAT IS CALIFORNIA SLIP AND FALL LAW?

California Slip and Fall Law requires property owners to maintain safe premises and warn visitors of hazards. If an injury occurs due to unsafe conditions, the injured party can sue for compensation. To win, the injured party must prove that the property owner knew or should have known about the hazardous condition and failed to address it or warn visitors.

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO AFTER A SLIP AND FALL ACCIDENT?

Get Medical Help: Your health comes first—see a doctor right away to check for injuries and document them properly.

Report the Incident: Let the property owner or manager know about your fall, and ask for a written report.

Capture the Scene: If you can, take pictures of where you fell. They might be important later.

Avoid Statements: Don’t make detailed statements to the property owner or insurance company before talking to an attorney.

Call an Attorney: Slip and fall cases can be tricky. A lawyer can help you navigate the process and strengthen your claim.

DAMAGES YOU CAN RECOVER IN A SLIP AND FALL CASE

Slip and fall injuries can result in much more than just physical pain—they often mean high medical costs, lost income, and lasting emotional effects. If you win your case, you could receive "compensatory damages" to help cover:

Medical Costs: Both current treatment and future care.
Lost Income: Including wages and lost future earnings.
Household Costs: Replacement services you can no longer do.
Non-Monetary Damages: Pain and suffering, emotional distress, disfigurement, disability, and inconvenience.

“My experience with Ms Shiganian is that she was knowledgeable, she followed through, and very kind and compassionate. My case was transferred to her after working with another law group that did not follow through so my case dragged. As soon as she was on my case, things moved in favor. Thank you!”
