Who is Responsible for a Trip and Fall Injury?

If you trip and fall on a commercial or residential property and the accident was caused by the negligence of the property owner or manager, they may be held liable for your accident-related damages.

A trip and fall accident often occurs due to the negligence of the person who owns, maintains, or controls the property. For your trip and fall injury attorney to prove negligence, they must show that:

• The property owner or manager owed you a duty of care
• The property owner or manager breached their duty
• The property owner or manager’s breach of duty resulted in your injuries
• You suffered damages due to the accident

Proving a trip and fall case can be challenging. The property owner or manager may try to clean up or repair the dangerous conditions on their property before you have time to gather evidence. Because of this, you must contact an attorney as soon as possible. When you hire a trip and fall injury attorney at Parker Waichman LLP, they will get to work right away, investigating the accident, gathering evidence, and building a strong case for compensation.

The evidence we may gather can include:

• Video footage (if available)
• Photos of the dangerous conditions
• Photos of your injuries
• Medical records and medical bills
• Incident reports

And other relevant evidence that can support your trip and fall claim.
