Slip and Fall Accidents

Slip and fall accidents occurred when an unsuspecting person falls and injures his or her self. Slip and fall accidents occur at supermarkets, drug stores, and virtually all types of commercial establishments. These accidents occur when the owner of the property fails to maintain the common areas in a reasonably safe condition. The classic example of a slip and fall accident is the person that slips and falls on a piece of lettuce that has been left on the floor of a supermarket. Slip and fall accidents result in serious personal injuries such as brain injuries, spinal cord injuries fractured bones, torn muscles and ligaments as well as other debilitating physical conditions.
