What is a Willingboro Slip and Fall Accident?

Like many others, you might think that a slip and fall case is limited to someone slipping on a wet floor, or tripping over a broken sidewalk. However, liability for a fall can result many ways. For example, a stairway may be missing a handrail or have poor lighting at night. Someone may be injured at a warehouse as a result of unsafe docking procedures. Being wrongfully injured or killed can result from any dangerous condition of a commercial, governmental or private property. Here are additional ways someone can be wrongfully injured:

Supermarket Falls:

Falls at supermarkets and other retail businesses are quite common. They can occur from grapes spilling from a display onto the floor to a leaking refrigerator. Fortunately, New Jersey law is very favorable for fall victims by holding businesses responsible if the creation of the dangerous condition was foreseeable and resulted from normal business operations.

Willingboro Public Parks:

There are many parks that do not receive proper maintenance to be safe. This especially concerning knows that many parks are made to attract children. Playground equipment is often poorly maintained leading to falls or lacerations. In addition, there is very short time period for putting governmental agencies on notice of a personal injury claim. New Jersey law only allows 90 days to complete the applicable claim application. There are also specific laws regarding governmental immunity that have to be followed to bring a case against a township or other governmental body. Given such, it is critical contact me about your case as soon as possible.

Willingboro Parking Lots and Walkways:

Slip and fall injuries occur in parking lots and along walkways daily. The type of dangerous conditions causing the falls can be numerous. You or a loved can slip or trip and fall because of surface cracks, potholes, uneven surfaces and spilled or leaked substances such as grease. Falls along sidewalks have special rules on who may be liable. Commercial property owners are liable for defective conditions along their sidewalks but townships are usually responsible for falls in front of residential properties, but there are exceptions. It is important to know that the 180 day notice requirement described above applies to residential sidewalk cases as well.

What is Needed to Win a Willingboro Slip and Fall Case?

In most cases, it will be necessary to have your treating physician or chiropractor testify about the extent of your injures. In more complex cases, physician specialists or a bio-mechanical engineer may be needed to explain your injuries to the jury. Friends and family can also testify about your limitations. In regards to proving fault (negligence), a civil engineer or human factors expert may be retained to explain the mechanics of the fall to show how the land owner or manager is liable. With over 25 years of experience, I know what is needed to prove your case to achieve a maximum monetary award. I have tried dozens of cases for my clients and am not afraid to take your case to trial if the insurance company is putting profits ahead of paying you fair compensation.
