What To Do Following A Slip And Fall Accident

Christopher Earley | | General Injury Information

Unfortunately, slip and fall accidents happen much too frequently. Doing the right things after a slip and fall or trip and fall are very important in order to protect your legal rights. Should you have the misfortune of being involved in such an accident, keep the following in mind after a slip and fall accident:

  1. If possible, photograph the scene of the accident (or have someone else do it as soon as possible if you are unable to do it yourself);
  2. If you are injured, seek the appropriate medical attention for your injuries;
  3. Document all out-of-pocket expenses you incur;
  4. Report the accident immediately to the property owner (if feasible);
  5. Before speaking with an insurance  adjuster, consult for free a local personal injury lawyer.

Nearly twenty years ago when I opened my practice I decided to dedicate my career to advancing the rights of injury victims against powerful insurance companies. Personally, I find great satisfaction in helping good and honest people who have been wronged due to no fault of their own. I am really proud to have earned our clients’ hard-earned trust by running a law firm our clients can always count on to do the right thing.
