Slip And Falls
Slip and Falls are common types of personal injury accidents that occur as a result of flooring or ground surface that is
- Slippery,
- Icy,
- Uneven or
- Cracked
Slip and Fall Claims often occur on the premises of
- Shopping Stores,
- Restaurants,
- Residential Buildings, and
- Municipal Grounds.
Fault is normally hotly contested, but can be proven, if it is shown that
- The hazard that caused the slip and fall was or should have been known, and
- The maintenance routine designed to prevent or remove such a hazard was defective
It is vital to secure witness names and telephone numbers to prove both that the slip and fall occurred and that there was a hazard that caused it.
Frequently engineers or maintanance experts are required to establish that maintenance practices of the Defendant were defective.
