Liability is Complex in a Forest Hills Slip and Fall Case

A premises liability case like a slip and fall or trip and fall accident relies on proving someone’s negligence led to your losses and injuries. We must show that someone owed you a duty of care. 

Not every slip and fall case is someone’s fault, but property owners or similar parties typically must make sure the premises is safe, or they should have been able to foresee potential issues. For example, if a property owner noticed a dangerous condition, like a leak from the roof, but never fixed the problem, they could be liable for your slip and fall. Of course, this is highly dependent on the causes of your accident, which is why these cases are so tricky for victims to handle alone.

The parties liable for your injuries can vary, but we could potentially pursue a settlement from a property owner, a business owner, or another party who caused the conditions that led to your fall. You have enough to deal with, so let us take over and give you the rest you need. 

We’ll Calculate Your Recoverable Damages from Your Slip and Fall

One of our team’s duties is to calculate the exact cost of your fall, which may include: 

• Medical bills
• Pain and suffering
• Mental health treatment
• Lost income
• Diminished earning power
• The cost of medical equipment
• Any other economic or non-economic harm resulting from your fall

The injuries from a fall can cascade into several health problems, particularly for older fall victims. We will monitor your recovery and evaluate your healthcare costs (and other damages) to ensure we are seeking the money you need to cover those damages.
