Chicago Slip and Fall Attorney

Slip and Fall Injuries

Often associated with premises liability cases, slip and fall injuries are both common and dangerous. Slip and fall accidents can truly happen to anyone; something as simple as a raised carpet seam or wet tile floor can result in painful and debilitating injuries.

If you have been hurt in a slip and fall accident on someone else's property, that person or company may be legally responsible for your injuries. The law requires that property owners provide a safe environment for those on their property. This may include anything from a complicated maintenance procedure for a dangerous staircase to a simple warning sign for a slippery floor. If the property owner failed to meet these legal obligations, you may be able to recover damages for your injuries in a court of law, including, but not limited to:

• Medical bills/costs
• Lost wages
• Disability
• Disfigurement, and
• Emotional or psychological distress.

As with any personal injury or accident case, time is of the essence. Evidence must be collected and documented as soon as possible, so don't wait.
