Slip and Fall Accidents
Ottumwa / Oskaloosa Personal Injury Attorney
A "slip and fall" refers to an injury sustained by someone who slips, trips, or falls due to an unsafe or dangerous condition on another's property. A slip and fall can occur on private property or in a public place, both indoors and outdoors. The consequences of slip and fall injuries can range from cuts and bruises to broken bones, head trauma, back injuries, and even death. These types of injuries are especially prevalent and serious for older citizens. They may occur during dangerous weather conditions, such as ice, sleet, rain, and snow where surfaces, pathways, and floors are uneven or slippery, and in many other situations. Generally, to make a personal injury claim for a slip and fall on another's property, it must be shown that the landowner, manager, or property owner was negligent.

Negligence in Slip and Fall Accidents
