We Can Help You Pursue Compensation After A Slip-And-Fall Accident
Perhaps you were walking through the grocery store and slipped on an unmarked wet spot. Or maybe your landlord routinely failed to repair the stairway railing leading up to your apartment and you fell when it broke. These and numerous other scenarios constitute slip, trip and fall accidents, and if you suffered serious injuries, you may be entitled to compensation.

New Jersey, like other states, requires property owners to maintain reasonably safe conditions in and around their property. For example, if a landlord failed to heed requests to repair a rickety stairway that eventually collapsed, injuring a tenant, that property owner can be held liable for failing to address a known safety hazard. Similarly, if construction is being done to a storefront, signs alerting patrons and passersby of potential hazards must be clearly displayed.
Although many of these safety requirements seem like common sense, accidents resulting from the negligence of property owners are a common occurrence.
Some other common premises liability issues include:
Loose floor mats, rugs, floorboards or tiles
Water on the floor
Poorly lit stairs and entryways
Cracks and holes in sidewalks or parking lots
Insufficient security
Weather-related issues such as icy spots
Standing water
If you or a loved one suffered an injury due to a slip, trip, fall or another type of accident, don’t assume that you will be stuck paying your medical bills and other accident-related expenses. By working together, we can determine the full extent of your injuries, begin an investigation to determine whether the property owner failed to exercise proper care, and pursue compensation for your injuries. In addition to protecting yourself, it’s important to take action in a premises liability claim to ensure others don’t suffer the same fate.
