As an expert in personal injury law, I have seen countless cases of slip and fall accidents and the devastating effects they can have on victims. But what exactly is a slip and fall accident? Simply put, it is an event where someone slips and falls, resulting in an injury. These accidents can occur for a variety of reasons, but when they happen on someone else's property, legal action can be taken. Slip and fall accidents can happen on a single level or involve multiple levels, such as stairs.
In order for the property owner to be held responsible, they must be found negligent. This means they either caused the hazardous condition, were aware of it and did nothing, or should have known about it and failed to address it.
