Slip and fall cases often result in serious injuries. If an injury or death from a slip and fall occurs as the result of the property owner's/manager's neglect, the victim may be entitled to compensation.
If you are injured in a slip and fall accident, it is important to file a report with the business. If the incident occurs on an individual's premises, you should obtain their homeowner's insurance information.
Slip and fall incidents are embarrassing. Many times the victim is in considerable pain, but simply wants to move away from the scene. When this happens, it is difficult to remember what you should do.
THINGS TO REMEMBER:
1) If possible determine what caused you to fall, where it came from, and whether there are caution or wet floor signs in the area;
2) If there are witnesses to the event, try to obtain their contact information;
3) Report the incident to property management immediately;
4) Take photographs of the scene (cell phone's are great for this!); and
5) If you are seriously injured, seek immediate medical treatment.
