Slip and Fall Lawyer
Riverside Accidents

Slip and fall accidents occurring in or around Riverside County can cause not only injury, but also permanent maiming and death. More people in this country are injured by slip and fall incidents than by any other type of accident, often because someone else created or left in place a hazardous condition on their property.

Slip and fall accidents often happen because surfaces are badly constructed or poorly maintained. A person may slip and fall on uneven flooring in a department store, or on a newly mopped floor in an office building.

If you or a family member were injured in a slip and fall incident on someone else's property, either in Riverside County or in any other place, you or your loved ones may be entitled to compensation. You should seek help from a Riverside trip and fall attorney as soon as possible, to make sure that your case is investigated and filed before it is too late.

What Should You Do After a Slip and Fall Accident?

In the immediate aftermath of a slip and fall accident with injuries, it is important not to panic. But what should you do?

  • See a Doctor for Your Slip and Fall Injuries: Even if you think your injuries are minor, there may be latent injuries that will only surface as time passes. You need to get medical attention immediately following a slip and fall accident, to rule out head, back and neck injuries, among others, and start treatment, where necessary.
  • Gather Evidence: What caused you to slip and fall? A wet spot will dry up, and uneven pavement can be mended, so take note of the cause of your slip and fall accident and take pictures, if possible - with your camera phone, if you have one. If anyone witnessed your slip and fall accident, take down their names and contact information.
  • Report the Slip and Fall Accident: Report the incident to whoever is in charge of the property. Be sure that they create a report, which may prove invaluable if the responsible parties later try to claim the slip and fall incident never occurred.
  • Contact a Riverside Slip and Fall Lawyer: After a slip and fall accident, the property owner or manager of the location where you were injured is likely to fix the dangerous condition that caused your slip and fall accident. While this is a reasonable thing for them to do, it will wipe out a crucial piece of evidence you will need to prove your case. Get a competent Riverside trip and fall attorney as soon as you can so that he or she can collect evidence and investigate your slip and fall claim before it is too late.

Recovering Damages for Your Slip and Fall Accident

Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises safe for others, including the duty to inspect for safety problems periodically and to clear up any dangerous conditions promptly, or at least warn others of those dangerous conditions. When you have a slip and fall accident, you may recover damages if you can show that the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition, and either did nothing to remedy the problem or took inadequate steps to do so.

Your Riverside slip and fall attorney will work to help you prove that you are entitled to damages from all those who might be responsible for your slip and fall accident, possibly including:

  • The property owner;
  • Employees of the property owner with responsibility for keeping the premises safe, such as maintenance crews;
  • The person or entity leasing the premises; and
  • Government entities in charge of maintaining property.

After you establish that you are entitled to damages, your next question will be, "What sort of compensation will I be able to recover?" Depending on the extent of your slip and fall injuries, you may be able to get compensation for:

  • Medical Bills
  • Pain and Suffering
  • Lost Wages
  • Loss of Enjoyment of Life
  • Assisted Living Expenses

Make Sure You Hire the Right Riverside Slip and Fall Lawyer

An experienced Riverside slip and fall attorney will understand that time is of the essence for your claim. He or she must investigate your claim quickly, before evidence disappears. Your Riverside attorney must also prove that a dangerous condition existed at the site of your slip and fall, that someone with responsibility for keeping the area safe failed to do so, and that you have suffered injuries because of that failure. It is important that your Riverside slip and fall lawyer begins this process sooner, rather than later, because failure to file your claim within state-law imposed time limits following your accident could mean you will forever lose your rights to recovery.
