Common Causes of Slip & Fall Accidents

Slip and fall accidents are often preventable and caused by hazardous property conditions. We handle cases involving:

Wet or Slippery Floors

Spilled liquids, freshly mopped floors, or leaks without warning signs.

Uneven Surfaces & Cracked Pavement

Broken sidewalks, potholes, and loose flooring create tripping hazards.

Poor Lighting

Dimly lit stairwells, hallways, and parking lots increase the risk of falls.

Lack of Handrails & Safety Features

Staircases, ramps, and walkways must have proper railings and grip surfaces.

Negligent Maintenance

Property owners must inspect and repair hazards in a reasonable timeframe.

Frequently Asked Questions About Slip & Fall Claims

  • How do I prove a property owner was responsible for my fall?

    To win a case, we must prove that:

    1. A hazard existed on the property.
    2. The owner knew or should have known about it.
    3. The owner failed to fix it or provide warnings.
    4. This negligence directly caused your injury.

  • Can I file a claim if I fell in a store or business?

    Yes. Businesses are responsible for keeping their premises safe. If store employees ignored hazards or failed to clean up spills, they may be liable.

  • What if the property owner says the fall was my fault?

    Insurance companies may try to blame you, but we investigate to prove the property owner’s negligence.

  • How long do I have to file a slip and fall lawsuit in Georgia?

    You have two years from the date of injury to file a claim. However, acting sooner strengthens your case.

  • How much is my slip and fall case worth?

    Compensation depends on medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term effects. We offer free consultations to evaluate your claim.
