We often tend to blame ourselves for slipping and falling, and many accidents are more embarrassing than injurious. However, there are times when such accidents result in serious injuries, and property owners are at fault for allowing them to happen. Your slip-and-fall accident may have been due to the property owner’s negligence.
Victims of slip-and-fall accidents may be entitled to damages if the accident was the result of the negligence of the property owner, the company, or the employee who occupies the property.
