Slip & Fall Accidents , Trip & Fall Accidents

A slip & fall or trip & fall is the generic term for any injury happening when someone slips, trips or falls as a result of a dangerous or hazardous condition on someone else’s property. Slip and falls can happen in many different places including , in retail establishments (supermarkets, the mall), amusement parks, schools, or on the job.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over one million Americans suffer a slip, trip, and fall injury and over 17,000 people die in the U.S. annually because of these injuries. Common injuries include bruising, fractures (hip, spine, leg, angle, pelvis, hand) and traumatic brain injuries.

Slip and falls or trip and falls often occur as a result of a slippery surface like water, a banana peel, or a grape on the floor of a store or oil in a parking lot. They can also occur due to abrupt changes in flooring, poor lighting, unsafe railings, or a hidden hazard such as gap or hard to see hole in the ground.

If you are on someone else’s property and injure yourself as a result of a dangerous condition on the property, the land owner or business owner may be liable for your injuries; however, in order to make a claim for negligence as a result of this condition, you must generally prove that the landowner or business owner knew or should have known of the dangerous or hazardous condition and that they failed to either correct the problem to make it safe or warn others of the inherently dangerous condition.
