Bay Area Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer
A slip and fall accident often seems minor at the time, even to the victim. A knee or elbow may be sore or your back might hurt. Even for a seemingly minor accident, you should still be examined by a doctor to determine if you have any serious injuries that may cause long-term pain or disability.
At the Injury Law Center, personal injury attorney Jack Bloxham has spent more than 20 years representing injured people who slipped and fell on other people's property — whether a store, restaurant, shopping center, apartment complex or a private home. These claims fall into the category of personal injury law called premises liability.
We can help you get the compensation you need for injuries you suffered after a slip and fall accident, and we provide free consultations. Contact the Injury Law Center or visit us in one of our four Bay Area offices: Walnut Creek, San Jose, or Fremont-Hayward-Union City area.
Property owners who fail to provide a safe atmosphere for their guests and shoppers must be held liable for slip and fall injuries resulting from their negligence:
- Failure to provide hand railings
- Uneven flooring or carpet
- Wet or slippery floors
- Negligent maintenance and repair
- Failure to remove spilled product, food or debris on the floor
- Failure to warn patrons or guests about slippery floors or other hazards
Most slip and fall accidents do not involve a fall from a great height, and the majority of injuries are not life-threatening. Common injuries include back and neck injuries and soft tissue injuries. If a hazard causes a fall down stairs or through a hole, however, injuries can be more severe, such as head and brain injuries.
In slip and fall accident claims, we must prove that the property owner caused the dangerous condition or should have known about the condition and failed to correct it. We conduct thorough investigations to gather facts, talk with medical specialists and experts to determine the extent of your injuries, and rely on the testimony of rehabilitation experts to determine your future needs.
Our goal in slip and fall cases is to get our clients the full compensation they need to cover all their damages and losses, such as lost wages, pain and suffering and medical bills. Armed with the facts, expert opinions of your conditions and our experience, we have a strong advantage at the negotiation table and at trial.
