In some cases, a slip and fall injury is due to negligence by a property owner. If so, premises liability law allows the injured person to get compensation for the consequences of the accident, including medical bills and lost wages.

He can meet, free of charge, with injured people and their families and tell them how the law can help. If they have a case, he can represent them on a contingency basis, charging no attorneys' fees until recovery.

What Makes for a Slip and Fall Injury Case?

To be a valid slip and fall injury case, a lawyer must demonstrate that the owner of the property allowed an avoidable hazard to exist and cause injury. If a property owner fails to reasonably anticipate injuries caused by defective conditions, they may be financially responsible for the consequences of those injuries.

Cases can involve any circumstance involving property owner negligence. Just a few types of cases include:

• Slips on a wet floor in stores
• Trips in holes in the pavement
• Design defects
• Construction defects
• Lack of a railing
• Trampoline injuries
• Amusement park accidents
• Unsafe fast food playgrounds
• Unsafe daycare centers
• Swimming Pool Accidents
• Defective Lighting
• Inadequate Security

One example comes from Eric Finamore's past cases. He represented a woman who had complained to her landlord about a dangerous floor in the hallway. The landlord took no action. The woman tripped on the dangerous area and fell down the stairs, breaking both ankles. Mr. Finamore got a settlement at mediation on behalf of the woman.
