What Is a Slip and Fall Accident?

A slip-and-fall accident occurs when someone slips, trips, or falls due to a hazardous condition on someone else’s property. Common causes include:

• Wet or slippery floors without warning signs
• Broken or uneven walkways
• Poor lighting that hides obstacles
• Ice or snow accumulation on sidewalks
• Loose carpeting or unsecured rugs
• Cluttered or unsafe stairs

These accidents can result in severe injuries, such as broken bones, sprains, back injuries, or head trauma. When negligence plays a role in your accident, you may have the right to seek compensation.

How to Know If You Have a Slip and Fall Case

Not all slip-and-fall accidents result in valid legal claims. For a successful case, your attorney must prove the following elements:

• Hazardous Condition: The property had a dangerous condition that caused your fall.

• Negligence: The property owner or manager knew or should have known about the hazard and failed to fix it or warn visitors.

• Injury: You sustained injuries due to the fall.

• Damages: Your injuries led to medical bills, lost wages, pain, or other damages.

One of our experienced lawyers will evaluate your situation to determine whether you have a strong case.

Common Locations for Slip and Fall Accidents

Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere, but they frequently occur in:

• Grocery stores and shopping centers
• Restaurants and hotels
• Apartment complexes
• Parking lots and sidewalks
• Public parks and government buildings
• Construction sites and workplaces

Regardless of where your accident happened, our Illinois slip and fall attorneys have the experience to handle your case.

Why Slip and Fall Cases Are Challenging

Slip and fall claims are often complex due to factors such as:

• Liability Disputes: Property owners may argue they were not responsible for the hazard.
• Evidence Requirements: Clear evidence, including photos, witness statements, and medical records, is crucial.
• Comparative Negligence: In Illinois, if you are partly at fault, your compensation may be lowered by comparative negligence laws.

Our attorneys understand these challenges. They know how to build a strong case that proves negligence and demonstrates the full extent of your injuries.

What Compensation Can You Receive?

If you’re successful in your slip and fall case, you may be eligible to recover compensation for:

• Medical expenses (past and future)
• Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Rehabilitation and therapy costs
• Property damage, if applicable

Every case is different. Be assured, however, that our Illinois slip-and-fall lawyers will work hard to get you the most compensation for your losses.
