Help for California Slip-and-Fall/Trip-and-Fall Accident Victims
A serious slip-and-fall accident can occur anywhere at anytime. When such an accident occurs because of the negligence of a landlord or retail store employees, the victim may seek compensation. A business entity owes you, as a customer (or business invitee), one of the highest duties of care recognized by the law. They have a duty not to expose a person to an unreasonable risk of harm.
In slip-and-fall cases, it is vital that you speak with an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible. The Heller Law Firm can provide a free case evaluation. Call us at (866) 461-5791. An attorney at our firm can explain the legal process, evaluate your case, and discuss how we may be able to obtain compensation for you.
You Must Act Quickly
Persons who suffer injuries due to negligence are often victimized twice — first by the accident itself, and then by an insurance company. To protect your ability to claim compensation, you need to take action quickly:
- Get the names and phone numbers of witnesses
- Record a summary of how the accident occurred
- Write down what the facility's employees and bystanders said just after the event about the conditions in the area
- If possible, take pictures of the dangerous condition
- Do not discuss the event with any insurance company representative
- Talk with an experienced premises liability attorney
Success in Challenging Cases
A slip-and-fall case can seem simple and straight-forward, however the opposite is usually true. Landlords or store owners do not usually volunteer information and uncovering the facts can present certain challenges. Moreover, California premises liability law places additional burdens on a plaintiff's lawyer. Our firm has succeeded in numerous slip-and-fall cases because we understand how to investigate the facts and how to develop a strong case.
