Approximately one million Americans suffer a slip and fall accident each year, and the results can range from inconvenient (bruising) to traumatic (brain injury, spinal cord injury, broken bones or death).

Slip and fall accidents can become a legal case when a property owner has been negligent, failing to either maintain the property or creating unsafe conditions that lead to a slip and fall injury. Sometimes it is even enough if a property owner knew about an unsafe condition, but did not take any action to remedy it.

If you have suffered a slip and fall accident because of negligence, you may be able to recover the cost of your medical bills, lost earnings or compensation for pain and suffering or long-term disability by filing a lawsuit.
