Trip And Fall Injuries

Trip and falls can happen almost anywhere. Those of older age are particularly at risk of serious injury caused by falls. But regardless of age, those who have taken a serious fall may end up in thousands of dollars in debt due to medical bills, lost wages, physical therapy, and other costs. These expenses are difficult for anywhere to deal with, and victims deserve compensation for their financial loss and physical suffering. We can find out who is responsible for failing to provide a reasonably safe environment which led to your fall, and then pursue fair compensation based on your degree of injury and loss. Common injuries associated with trip and fall accidents include:

  • Broken bones or fractures
  • Severe sprains or strains
  • Back injuries (slipped discs or paralysis)
  • Emotional trauma (new fears related to incident)
  • Neck and shoulder injuries (whiplash)

If you have tripped and fallen because of debri, wet flooring, broken cement, lack of handrails, or another hazard, then we urge you to speak with our knowledgeable trip and fall attorney as soon as possible. Hopefully you had reported the incident to a manager or supervisor on duty at the time. If you were able, taking photos of the scene and what caused you to fall is also helpful. When meeting with our team, we can review evidence and find out if the property owner had been negligent in attending to environmental hazards or risks.
