Slip & Fall Accidents
Slip-and-Fall Personal Injury Attorneys in Uptown, Minneapolis
Sometimes there’s more to falling than simply slipping and getting back up. In fact, over 800,000 individuals a year are hospitalized because of a fall injury and one out of five falls causes a serious injury such as broken bones or a head injury.
In Minnesota, icy sidewalks and snow are a danger during the winter months. Our weather causes many slip and fall accidents, but greasy store floors, unsafe or crowded walkways, drop-offs and potholes also cause accidental falls. From simple scrapes and bumps to possible brain injuries, your slip and fall accident deserves proper compensation.
Have You Been Injured in a Fall on Public Property?
When it comes to businesses, slip and fall accidents are the most common type of premise liability cases. The property owner and the business have a duty to provide a safe environment for you when you’re on their property. If you’ve been injured by a fall that could’ve been prevented on public property, you could be eligible for compensation for medical bills, lost wages and your pain.
Why You need an Experience Slip & Fall Attorney
If you’ve been injured on someone else’s property, it’s important to hire an experienced injury attorney. Property liability isn’t always clear and the investigation of your claim is important to your case. Although neglect happens, it’s the responsibility of property owners to ensure the safety of all visitors on their property.
If you have injuries due to a fall on their property, the owner or renter may be liable if they were at fault, depending on the circumstances of the fall. However, it’s up to you to demonstrate that the owner’s neglect caused the injury. But you don’t have to do it alone and you definitely shouldn’t. Let the experience slip and fall personal injury attorneys at Brazil Sweeney Law Group in Minneapolis help.
“With some of the money we received, we decided to celebrate and hike the Inca Trail with my newly healed pelvis. Without you, we probably would not have been able to navigate the insurances to pay our medical bills and have extra for a dream trip and savings. It was a great way to celebrate the end of that experience. Thank you so much for all your help and guidance. We are grateful for everything you did for us.”
