Slip and Fall Lawyer can Help with Common Injuries
A slip and fall lawyer in Liberty can help you collect compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering and even emotional trauma from the most common injuries. Failing to provide a safe environment can put guests and clients in hazardous conditions, which furthers their risk of a slip and fall injury. All property owners, residential and commercial, have the duty to ensure safe environments for all visitors. If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident, contact the professionals at Noland Law Firm to be your advocate!
If you have been harmed by a hazardous condition on another’s property including a sidewalk, personal residence, restaurant, mall, hotel, office building school, park, theater, or museum, you may be eligible to file a premises liability claim and receive compensation for your injury. This is why you need to contact a slip and fall lawyer with the Noland Law Firm. Although premises liability law seeks to protect parties who are injured as the result of the property owner’s negligence, it is often difficult to prove liability especially if the owner has corrected the hazardous condition. To ensure that the proper grounds for your claim are met, you should contact a knowledgeable slip and fall lawyer who has the resources and experience necessary to win. Our personal injury law firm can assess your injury and assist you in determining whether the property owner failed to maintain his or her property or properly warn of hazardous conditions. For your claim to be successful, it must be shown that the property owner knew about the hazardous situation and failed to correct it in a timely manner and that the action or inaction of the property owner caused the condition which led to your fall. Hazards include anything from crumbling stairs, wet floors, exposed electrical wiring, raised flooring, falling debris, obstructed pathways to poorly lit walkways and slick walking surfaces.
If you are injured while on someone else’s property here are a few things to remember:
- Take note of the surroundings and the hazard which caused you to fall.
- If you have a camera or mobile phone with photo capturing ability, try to take photos of the hazard as this may serve as evidence of the condition of the property at the time of injury.
- If there are any witnesses, ask for their contact information or a written statement of the accident from their perspective.
- In the upcoming days and weeks, keep clear records of any medical treatment needed and document any missed work which occurred as a result of your injury.
- Most importantly, contact a slip and fall lawyer who can review your case and inform you of the best course of action to receive compensation for your suffering and lost wages.
