Reasons for Slip and Fall Lawsuits
When it comes to slip and fall accidents, there are various scenarios where you may be entitled to seek compensation for your injuries. At MacCloskey Kesler & Associates, we understand the impact a slip and fall can have on your life, and we are here to help you navigate the legal process and fight for the compensation you deserve.
According to Wikipedia, one common reason for compensation is hazardous conditions on the premises, such as icy walkways that have not been properly cleared by the property owner. Property owners have a responsibility to maintain safe conditions for visitors, and failure to do so can result in accidents and injuries. Whether it’s a commercial property, private residence, or public area, if the owner neglects their duty to keep the premises free from hazards, they may be held liable for any resulting injuries.
Another reason for slip and fall compensation is the presence of wet or slippery surfaces due to spills, leaks, or improper maintenance. Whether it’s a wet floor in a grocery store, a slippery surface in a restaurant, or a poorly maintained staircase in an apartment building, these conditions can pose serious risks to individuals and lead to slip and fall accidents. Property owners and occupiers have a duty to promptly address such issues and ensure the safety of visitors.
Uneven or poorly maintained walking surfaces, such as broken tiles, cracked sidewalks, or potholes, can also contribute to slip and fall accidents. Property owners should regularly inspect and repair these areas to prevent potential hazards. If negligence in maintaining these surfaces leads to your slip and fall accident, you may have grounds to seek compensation.
At MacCloskey Kesler & Associates, we have extensive experience handling slip and fall cases. Our team of dedicated personal injury attorneys will investigate the circumstances of your accident, gather evidence, and work tirelessly to hold negligent parties accountable.

What to do if you Fall
Seek medical attention: Your health and well-being are the top priority. Get immediate medical help to assess and treat your injuries, even if they initially seem minor.
Report the incident: Notify the property owner, manager, or supervisor about the accident. Make sure to document the details of the incident, including the date, time, location, and any contributing factors.
Gather evidence: Take photos of the accident scene, including any hazardous conditions that led to your fall. Obtain contact information from any witnesses who saw the incident occur.
Preserve any physical evidence: If possible, preserve the shoes or clothing you were wearing during the accident. They might serve as evidence to demonstrate the hazardous conditions or negligence involved.
Consult with a personal injury attorney: Seeking legal advice is crucial to protect your rights and navigate the complexities of a slip and fall claim. An experienced attorney can help evaluate your case, gather additional evidence, negotiate with insurance companies, and advocate for fair compensation on your behalf.
