>Slip & Fall Accidents

< Back

Slip and Fall is a type of personal injury, which may arise from a variety of situations such as slipping on snow, ice, water or some other liquid on stairways, sidewalks or other areas outside or in a building. Many slip, trip or fall injuries happen as a result of poorly maintained premises.

Because property owners are legally responsible for ensuring that guests and the general public are safe while on their property, if injuries occur due to hazardous conditions, owners may be liable.

If you are injured in a slip and fall accident that results from the negligence of another, you may be entitled to compensation to cover medical costs for your injury. In New Jersey there is a 2-year statute of limitations in slip and fall cases, which means if you were to file a suit, you would need to do so within two years from the date of the incident or you would be forever barred from bringing such a lawsuit.

Recovery of damages for personal injuries may include, pain and suffering, out-of-pocket expenses, loss of income, physical impairment, scarring and inconvenience.
