What Is a Slip and Fall Case?

Injuries caused by slip and falls are a common problem among people today.

A slip-and-fall case is generally brought when someone slips and falls on something like a slippery one at work. Slip and falls are covered under the premises liability law.

This law states that owners have a duty to maintain the condition of their property. If they need to fix something that poses a danger but they don't do it, then someone can sue them for negligence if they slip and falls on their property because of the hazard present.

For a slip and fall case to be brought, there must be a dangerous condition at the time of the accident. If there is no danger present, it would not be considered a slip and fall case.
 

Who Can File for a Slip and Fall Suit?

The injured party should hire a lawyer to help prove that the property was unsafe. To prove a case, the lawyer will need to know what kind of property was involved in the accident, where it was located, and when it happened.

At The Rezvani Law Firm, The Accident Duo know how to address these cases. Our team will help you get the compensation needed for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We take specialty in being your accident attorneys.
 

How Much Is the Average Slip and Falls Compensation?

When evaluating a slip and fall case, many variables can be considered depending on your situation.

Some of these factors include:

• Type and severity of injuries sustained

• Amount of medical treatment needed

• Loss of future income

Those factors, among others, will play a large part in determining compensation for a slip and fall case.
The Accident Duo can give you a clear idea of the exact value of your case. This value will depend on the circumstances of the situation.

The average slip and fall settlement can range from $15,000 to $45,000.

The rule of the thumb is: Your compensation should equal your monetary losses and the pain and suffering endured. Your monetary losses are all the direct out-of-pocket losses that occur due to the fall. The amount of pain and suffering is directly proportional to the severity of your injuries.

The Accident Duo believe that everyone who has had an accident deserves to get enough settlement to help with their medical expenses and overall quality of life.

While damages are a determinant of how much compensation you get for a fall, the strength of your case also plays a big role in the amount of compensation you get: the more reason you need to contact The Accident Duo.

With us, you pay $0 upfront cost. We believe that you should pay nothing unless you win.
