Slip & Fall Accidents
Fighting for victims injured by dangerous walking surfaces.
A slip and fall can cause broken bones, head injuries, and long recoveries — especially for older adults. Property owners often deny responsibility or claim the victim should have been more careful.
Kelso Law Group investigates fall scenes, gathers evidence, and holds negligent property owners accountable. At Kelso Law Group, our attorneys know how insurers and defense teams evaluate claims because we have defended large companies and carriers — and we use that insight to build stronger cases for our clients.
Common Slip & Fall Cases We Handle
Successful slip and fall claims require proof the owner knew or should have known about the hazard. We handle:
- Wet floors and spilled liquids in stores
- Uneven pavement and broken sidewalks
- Loose mats, rugs, and flooring defects
- Ice, snow, and weather-related hazards
- Poor lighting on stairs and walkways
- Falls in apartments, hotels, and nursing homes
Compensation You May Be Entitled To
If someone else’s negligence caused your injuries, you should not have to bear the financial burden alone. The value of your claim depends on the severity of your injuries, the impact on your work and daily life, and the insurance coverage available.
Depending on your case, compensation may include:
- Emergency care, surgery, therapy, and future medical treatment
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage and out-of-pocket expenses
- Emotional distress and mental anguish
- Wrongful death damages for surviving family members
What To Do After a Slip & Fall
What you do immediately after a fall can strengthen your claim. Follow these steps:
- Report the fall to the property owner or manager and request an incident report.
- Photograph the hazard, your shoes, lighting, and any warning signs — or lack thereof.
- Get names and contact information from witnesses.
- Seek medical care even if pain seems minor at first.
- Contact Kelso Law Group before speaking with the property owner’s insurance company.
