What Is Considered a Slip & Fall Accident?

A slip and fall accident occurs when a person is injured due to a hazard on another person's property that is not readily apparent. These accidents are common in grocery stores, shopping malls, office buildings, and other places where there are likely to be wet floors, uneven flooring, or other conditions that could cause someone to slip and fall. For example, if you were shopping in a grocery store and you slipped on a spill of water or some other liquid without any signage around it, you may have a case for a slip and fall accident.

Slip and fall accidents can also occur on public streets and sidewalks when they are not properly maintained.

What Are My Rights If I Have Been Injured in a Slip & Fall Accident?

If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident, you have the right to file a claim for compensation. However, you will have a limited time to file a claim. You will also need to prove that the property owner owed you a duty of care and that they failed to uphold that duty.

To prove that the property owner owed you a duty of care, you will need to show that they were negligent. Property owners have a duty to keep their property safe for visitors, but they are not required to make their property perfectly safe. If you slip and fall on a wet floor in a grocery store, for example, the store does not need to make the floors perfectly dry at all times. They only need to make the floors safe enough for customers to reasonably navigate.

What Damages Are Recoverable in a Slip & Fall Accident Lawsuit?

If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident, you may have suffered significant injuries. You may have broken bones, torn ligaments, torn muscles, lacerations, or other injuries. Depending on the severity of your injuries, you may have been temporarily or permanently disabled. If you were temporarily disabled, you will likely have missed work and lost wages. If you were permanently disabled, you will likely have lost the ability to work at all and will need ongoing medical care and support.

Depending on the circumstances of your slip and fall accident, you may be able to recover compensation for:

• Medical bills, including ongoing treatment and medications
• Lost wages, including past and future lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Punitive damages

At Evans Garrey PLLC, our Flagstaff slip and fall lawyers can help you recover the compensation you need to get back on your feet. We will work to prove that the property owner was negligent and should be held accountable for your injuries.
