Common Slip and Fall Instances

Oftentimes, people slip and fall due to a dangerous condition on a property that may have been caused by the owner’s negligence. Injuries often occur from slip and fall accidents. With early and aggressive investigation, it makes it less difficult to prove that the owner did know about the dangerous condition or that they created the dangerous condition.

Proving a Slip and Fall Accident

Slip and fall cases are often difficult to prove because the law requires you to prove that the owner of the property either created the dangerous condition or that they knew about the dangerous condition or reasonably should have known about it and knew that it posed a danger before the accident. Property owners will consistently deny that they knew about the dangerous condition or knew that it posed a hazard.
