Berger and Green Will Demand Fair Compensation for Fall-Related Damages

Falling can be more costly than you ever imagined, as damages can include:

Medical Costs

The journal BMC Public Health notes that head injuries, spinal injuries, and chest injuries are leading fall-related ailments that lead to hospitalization. Whether or not you are hospitalized, you may have medical bills resulting from:

• Emergency medical transport
• Imaging services
• Hospital services
• Medications
• Doctors appointments
• Surgeries
• Rehabilitation services

Those with broken bones or disabling injuries may also need medical equipment. Our Ellwood slip and fall accident attorneys will work with your doctors to identify your medical costs and project the cost of any future medical services you’ll need.

Pain and Suffering

Serious injuries can cause serious pain and suffering, which may include:

• Pain from the injuries
• Chronic pain development
• Post-traumatic stress disorder (which may occur when serious falls happen)
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Scarring
• Other forms of disfigurement
• The loss of physical abilities
• Lost quality of life

With more than 40 years of experience serving clients, we have seen many different types of pain and suffering. To supplement our experience, we may have a mental health professional evaluate you and help calculate the financial cost of your pain and suffering.

Lost Income

Some injuries from a slip and fall can be quite serious, or the recovery time is long. This can leave you out of work for weeks or months, or perhaps longer, even with proper medical treatment. This can impact your ability to provide for yourself or your family, and we aim to help you get what you need.

If your fall has caused lost income, diminished earning power, lost bonuses, or any other professional harm, we will include your professional damages in your case.

Some Falls Prove Fatal

Older adults and workers are among those most vulnerable to fatal falls, as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) explains. Please accept our firm’s sympathies if you’ve lost a loved one, we understand how difficult this time is. Your family deserves justice, so allow our team to seek compensation for:

• Funeral expenses, medical bills, and other fall-related expenses
• Loss of consortium 
• Loss of the decedent’s income, household services, and other types of financial support
• Loss of your loved ones support, including the grief the loss of your loved one has caused
• Any other economic or non-economic damages resulting from your loss

Our Ellwood City slip and fall accident lawyers provide compassionate representation but will urgently fight for the compensation you deserve. Call Berger and Green today to complete your free consultation.
