A slip-and-fall accident is no laughing matter. In fact, you could end up with a lot more than just your pride bruised.

When a slip and fall accident occurs on someone else’s property, you may have the right to file a lawsuit for negligence against the property owner or manager (such as a commercial tenant) to cover your medical care and other damages.

Legal Advice And Advocacy For Premises Liability Victims
Premises liability is a section of personal injury law that refers to the legal duty of care that a property owner must take to ensure the safety of visitors and guests. This includes ensuring that all walking surfaces have enough traction for people to walk without slipping and that all spills and other liquids are cleared up promptly to avoid someone slipping and getting hurt. If the hazard cannot be cleaned, removed, or rectified right away, then the property owner must indicate the hazard (such as placing a wet floor sign or barricading the area) to prevent injury.
Failure to do so can be considered negligence and an abandonment of that duty of care. If you were harmed due to a property owner’s negligence, you have the right to file a civil suit for compensatory damages. You could be left with sky-high medical bills, chronic pain, or temporarily or permanently disabled. And, you could be out of work for weeks, recovering.
Your settlement can cover your medical care, lost wages while you’re out of work, and other out-of-pocket losses. If you are disabled to the point where you cannot continue in your job and must take a lower-paying one, your damages can include a loss of earning potential. We also seek compensation for your pain and suffering and other non-economic losses, like pain, disability, and a diminished quality of life.
Proving Negligence In A Slip And Fall Case
To win a slip and fall claim, we must prove negligence. Our lawyers do so by collecting evidence that the property owner knew, or should reasonably have known, about the dangerous conditions on their property but failed to address them and that this failure led to your injury. The evidence we use can include employee testimony, CCTV or video footage of the accident and the conditions before it happened, and property safety and maintenance records.
We build our case based on evidence and Wyoming personal injury law. Once we prove that the property owner was negligent, we can propose a fair settlement. We properly value your claim, including consideration for your pain and suffering and treatment for complications from your slip-and-fall injuries.
You don’t have to fight for your fair due alone. Our Wyoming slip-and-fall lawyer is right beside you, supporting your rights and holding the proper owner accountable for the harm they caused. Contact Davis & Johnson Law Office today for a free consultation to learn more.
