Possible Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall accidents can happen essentially any time that there is a slip hazard present. Some examples of slip hazards include some of the following:
- Wet floors
- Recently mopped or waxed floors
- Slippery surfaces
- Spills
- Leaks
- Littered floors
- Missing or misplaced warning signs
- Missing or misplaced weather mats
These slip hazards can quickly lead to slip and fall accidents and to some of the injuries that were previously mentioned.
Can I Sue for a Slip and Fall Accident?
Yes – you could sue for a slip and fall accident. your right to sue is based on the concept of premise liability. Under premise liability, all property owners have a duty to keep their premises safe for their guests. More specifically, property owners must be able to keep the premises free of any hazards or other dangerous conditions that could cause a slip and fall accident – or any other personal injury accident. Property owners must inspect their premises thoroughly to be able to identify/address hazards that could lead to incidents. When property owners fail to do this, then they could directly contribute to incidents and could be liable for resulting harm.
So, what does this mean for you after a slip and fall accident? If you or a loved one were injured in a slip and fall accident, you could sue the property owner for the harm resulting from the incident. What if the property is leased? You can still sue for slip and fall injuries. In fact, in addition to being able to sue property owners, you could potentially sue the company leasing the property, property management companies, maintenance companies, and even city entities – of course, this will all be based on the details surrounding the incident and the facts surrounding the property where the accident happened.
If you are unsure of whether you have the right to sue after your slip and fall claim, we recommend that you seek legal assistance with the experts here at our law firm as soon as possible. Whether you were injured in a building that is part of the city’s historic core or at one of the countless cultural monuments, you could have the right to sue – and our team is more than ready to guide you every step of the way.
Can I Be Compensated for My Slip and Fall Injuries?
Yes – you could be awarded compensation for the slip and fall injuries that you suffered in an accident. Based on the details surrounding your specific injuries and the harm that you suffered, you could be eligible to receive compensation for some of the following:
- Medical expenses
- Lost income
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage
- Wrongful death benefits (funeral/burial costs and loss of consortium)
- Legal fees
Here at the Normandie Law Firm, our personal injury lawyers are ready to take care of your claim and secure the highest settlement available. Below, we will address some of the most frequently asked questions related to the compensation that claimants could recover for their slip and fall claims.
What is the average value of slip and fall claims? In general, slip and fall claims can be worth anywhere from $50,000 to $1.5 million – and even more. Of course, this is an estimated value range. The specific value of your claim will be specifically based on the details surrounding your claim (including the type of injuries resulting from the incident, the severity of the injuries, and more).
How long does it take to settle slip and fall claims? Typically, slip and fall claims can be settled within two years. Here at our law firm, we aim to settle these cases in under eight months. For more information about the time that it could take to settle these types of cases, contact us today.
Understanding the Statute of Limitations
As explained above, you could have the right to file a lawsuit after a slip and fall accident at a historic core building in Los Angeles. It is important that you seek legal assistance as soon as possible, as your claim is subject to a statute of limitations – or a deadline to sue. If you fail to file your claim on time, you could lose your right to sue entirely.
So, how long do you have to file your claim? In California, personal injury claims are subject to a two-year statute of limitations, meaning that claimants only have two years to sue (with few exceptions). However, if the property where the incident happened is owned/operated by the city, then a much shorter six-month deadline applies. For more information about the total length of time that you have to pursue your claim, contact the experts here at our law firm today. Our lawyers will ensure that your claim is filed on time.
