Every day, people suffer serious injuries from slipping and falling.
Every day, people suffer serious injuries because property owners fail to correct dangerous conditions on their property, such as a slippery floor or an icy sidewalk.
If you slip and fall, the only way you can file a lawsuit and recover compensation is to prove the incident occurred due to the property owner’s negligence – that they failed to meet a duty of care to the people who visit their property.

We will take the time to explain your rights and options, gather and preserve the evidence in your case, negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf, and fight for the justice you are owed.
