Slip and Fall Lawyers

“Slip and fall” accidents typically involve a situation where a person is injured by slipping, tripping and falling due to a dangerous condition. Falls can take place both inside and outside, and can be caused by bad or uneven flooring, wet floors, poorly lighted steps, weather-related conditions, and hidden defects. Snow, icy patches, cracks in a sidewalk, or potholes are also factors that can cause serious slip and fall injuries.

If your slip and fall accident was caused by a property owner's negligence or failure to repair a dangerous condition, contact the Law Offices of Carl D. Barnes today for a free consultation.

A slip and fall can happen anywhere, and they often occur at grocery stores, department stores, in parking lots, and on sidewalks. While many people, including insurance defense lawyers, make light of slip and fall accidents, the consequences of a fall can be severe. A slip, trip and fall accident may result in serious injuries, such as head injuries, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, herniated or bulging discs, fractures, breaks, broken bones, neck injuries, back injuries, shoulder injuries, knee injuries, and muscle and ligament injuries.
