Can You Get Compensation After a Fall?

You may receive compensation after a slip-and-fall accident caused by a property owner’s negligence in Atlanta. Generally, you can get damages if a lawyer shows that:

  • The property owner knew (or should have known) about a hazard on their property
  • The owner failed to remove or warn of the hazard
  • The hazard caused you to slip, fall, and injure yourself

Our team can help with a wide range of slip-and-fall accidents. For example, you can contact us if you fell after:

  • Slipping on spilled liquid in a store
  • Tripping over damaged flooring
  • Running into debris or trash left in a walkway

We also help with accidents caused by insufficient lighting. Any of these accidents can result in broken bones, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), spinal cord injuries (SCIs), and other health issues. Find out more about your next steps with an Atlanta premises liability lawyer.

How Can an Atlanta Slip-and-Fall Lawyer Help You?

Our law firm provides all clients with a risk-free consultation after a fall accident. We’ll listen to what happened and provide you with information about your next steps, sometimes taking on your legal claim.

You can rely on us to investigate in order to find the liable party. In many cases, property owners have to cover your losses, but someone renting or leasing the property where the accident occurred may be liable in some cases.

Our investigation may require us to:

  • Visit the property where you fell
  • Get copies of any accident reports
  • Speak to witnesses who saw you slip
  • Search for video recordings from the time of the accident
  • Work with slip-and-fall accident experts

We’ll use the evidence we collect to resolve your case, often by negotiating an insurance settlement in your favor. We also have the training and experience to file a lawsuit on your behalf.
