Hazards that Can Cause a Slip and Fall Accident
In Pennsylvania and New Jersey, incidents involving icy walkways are common and can lead to head injuries, torn ligaments, and more.
Other hazardous conditions that can cause slip and falls include:
- Wet or greasy floors: Water, grease, food, and chemicals can be floor contaminants
- Drainage issues: When water spills onto floors from backed-up/broken pipes
- Clutter: Anything obstructing a path that shouldn’t be there like cable, hoses or wire
- Uneven steps or stairs: Marked uneven stairs and a handrail can prevent these falls
- Poor lighting: Insufficient lighting or burnt out light bulbs can cause unnecessary injuries
Our Pennsylvania slip and fall lawyers are dedicated to providing reliable assistance to determine the liabilities of your accident and fairly represent your case.
What To Do After a Slip and Fall Injury
According to Bruce M. Ginsburg at Gay Chacker & Ginsburg, “when you fall and you are injured, it is urgent that you get legal representation immediately. Evidence needs to be preserved or documented. Make sure to take a photo with your cell phone so you have it. Once the owner of the property or the responsible party is put on notice, the cause of the fall can be repaired or altered. Getting our team at Gay Chacker & Ginsburg on your side quickly can make a big difference.”
Facts that may help with your case include:
- If the property owner has provided warning signs or indicators of wet floors
- If the property owner has ensured that surfaces are safe for the pedestrian at all times
- If the property owner has done something after a pedestrian pointed out the unsafe walking areas
