Bay Area Slip, Trip and Fall Accident and Injury Attorneys
Committed to Maximizing Your Financial Recovery Following Serious Injury
Slip and fall accident claims have numerous legal complexities. In many accidents, for instance, property owners are found not liable for damages because the injuries resulted from “trivial defects” like tiny imperfections in a sidewalk.
Also, slip and fall cases can turn on the issue of “notice”. For example, if you slip on a banana in a grocery store and suffer an injury, the store is not liable until you demonstrate that the store’s employees had notice of the danger.
When an injured person brings a claim against a property owner, they may also have to manage the issue of contributory negligence. In California, juries can hold injured parties partly or wholly responsible for their injuries. When injured parties are found partly responsible, their awards are reduced accordingly, despite the magnitude of their injuries and medical expenses.

Our lawyers can conduct a full investigation of your claim, argue for 100 percent liability on the part of negligent property owners, and advocate for full compensation for your injuries.
