Slip & Fall Accidents
We Will Fight for Your Rights in Slip and Fall Cases
Many accidents on the commercial or residential property could be avoided if the property owner takes appropriate steps to remedy the problem or alert visitors of a potential hazard. However, when they do not, and an accident happens, such as a slip and fall, the property owner is held liable. The victim has the right to be compensated for medical expenses and lost wages due to injuries, pain, and suffering.
