Slip and fall or trip and fall cases are a common kind of injury case. A property owner must make sure their property is reasonably safe for invitees and guests. If there is a dangerous condition on their property that they knew or should have known about, and didn’t disclose it or failed to fix it, they could be responsible if someone gets hurt. You see a lot of slip and fall or trip and fall accidents at stores and restaurants, but it could be at a friend’s house or on public property. Many times there is video surveillance available for slip or trip and fall cases, which will become evidence in proving the case. Typically the property owner will have insurance to help pay for your injuries if they are at fault, and sometimes there is a type of insurance called med pay coverage that could help pay for your injuries regardless of fault. It is important to consult with an experienced attorney to make sure your rights are protected.
