St. Joseph Slip & Fall Accident Lawyer

Pursuing Compensation in Buchanan County

Thousands of people are injured each year in slip and fall accidents, and some are even killed as a result of their falls or related injuries, such as an impact to the head. These dangerous, serious accidents can occur at any time, such as when walking upstairs, walking across uneven ground, or when walking on slippery surfaces or icy areas. Victims often suffer broken bones, bruised tailbones, neck and spinal injuries and sometimes concussions that require immediate medical attention. If you or a loved one has been injured in a slip and fall accident, you may be able to receive compensation for the damages you sustained by determining liability and filing a personal injury lawsuit.

The hardest part about being injured in a slip and fall accident is knowing that the injury could have easily been prevented. Most of these cases are considered part of premises liability, so an attorney from our firm will thoroughly review your situation and ensure that the wrongful party is brought to justice. If the owner, landlord or employee did not perform due diligence to secure an unsafe area or provide adequate safety precautions to warn individuals of a potential hazard, then you may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit. It is vital that you act now though because you only have two years from the date of the injury-causing accident to file a personal injury claim.
