Slipping and falling in public injures a lot more than your pride. It’s not uncommon to break or sprain your wrists as you instinctively put out your hands to break your fall, for example, or suffer painful spinal cord injuries. When you visit someone else’s property, whether it’s public property like the DMV or private property like a restaurant or grocery store, you have a reasonable expectation of safety. Property owners who fail to ensure their premises are safe for visitors and guests can be held liable for any damages an injured property visitor suffers in a slip or trip and fall incident.

Proving Liability In A Nevada Slip And Fall Claim

The difference between an embarrassing accident and a personal injury case rests on whether the property owner was negligent. Some slip and fall claims are the victim’s own fault, like running on a clearly wet floor, but most of the time, there is an element of negligence on the property owner’s part. For example, failing to promptly clean up spilled food or drink that someone could slip on or failing to indicate that a floor is wet or slippery, such as placing a wet floor sign, is negligent. The property owner had a duty of care to keep the property safe for visitors and failed to do so. In these cases and similar ones, the property owner or manager must compensate the victim for their losses, including medical care and pain and suffering.

Our attorneys build a case of negligence against the property owner. We may review any security or CCTV footage of the incident or interview employees and other witnesses who saw you fall. We also cite the testimony of expert witnesses, like a medical expert who affirms that your injuries were due to the fall. If your injuries preclude you from working or continuing in your line of work, then we may secure the testimony of a vocational expert who can help us properly value your loss of earning potential. We properly value your case and often are able to secure a better settlement than you would be able to negotiate on your own.
