Slips and falls are common occurrences. Many times, slips and falls are simple accidents which do not result in serious injury. However, there are other cases where a simple fall leads to a bone fracture, concussion orparalysis.

Causes of Slip and Fall Injuries

Slips and falls are most often the result of unsafe environments such as:

• Torn carpeting or loose/uneven flooring
• Liquid on slick surfaces such as floors, bathrooms or outdoor decks and patios
• Improper, very low lighting, or burnt out safety lights in dark places
• Narrow, slippery or otherwise dangerous staircases
• Cracked, unrepaired sidewalks, walkways and public paths or trails
• Malfunctioning escalators or elevators
• Snow or ice accumulation
• Hidden hazards such as low hanging tree limbs or unseen potholes

Property owners have a duty to maintain their estates, and if slips, falls, trips or other injuries occur as a result of a dangerous hazard, a property owner may be held legally responsible.
