Slip & Fall Accidents
Owners and managers of premises are responsible for taking reasonable measures to ensure the safety of visitors to the site...(the people in charge are responsible)
Pedestrian accidents such as slip and fall, trip and fall, and escalator accidents are embarrassing for the person who suffers them. As a result, rather than taking witness names and statements and filing an personal injury report with the building management, the injured victim may attempt to go on as if everything is alright. However, if a food spill in a grocery aisle was left unattended because of poor oversight, debris littered a construction site, an icy parking lot was left without being cleared in a timely manner, or an escalator was not properly maintained, then the management of the building or property is responsible for the slip and fall injuries resulted from the neglect. If you or someone you know had a slip and fall in a retail store, business establishment, or on a municipal sidewalk, take the following measures:
- get pictures of the site from all angles
- get the names and contact information from witnesses
- file a report with the property manager
- see a doctor for treatment
- contact a personal injury attorney for slip and fall accident
Slip and fall accidents may be embarrassing but, it can also be fatal and serious, even disabling injuries. Slip and fall accidents can occur either in public place or private business. In hospitals, they are considered as the second most common cause of injuries causing employees to miss their work. This kind of personal injury can result in loss of work days and wages, expensive medical care, and prolonged period of therapy.
