Can I Pursue Compensation For My Slip and Fall Injury?

After a slip and fall accident, you may be wondering whether you have a viable case to pursue compensation for your injury. Generally, you must establish there was a dangerous condition on the property the owner failed to warn or fix that caused your slip and fall.

It is difficult to know if you have a case without having thorough knowledge of premise liability and negligent laws in Arizona. That is why we recommend reaching out to a Peoria slip and fall attorney from our firm to find out if you are eligible to take legal action.

Property owners have a legal obligation to keep their premises safe from hazards that could potentially cause harm to visitors. However, his or her duty depends on the legal status of the visitor at the time of injury on the property. Visitors are typically classified as follows:

• Invitee ”“ An invitee is someone who has prior permission to enter the property for business purposes, such as a customer visiting a department store or an employee entering their place of work. In these cases, the property owner must take certain steps in ensuring the invitee’s safety. For example, if there is a spill on the ground, management must quickly attend to the spill or warn guests of the potential hazard.
• Licensee ”“ A licensee is someone who is invited on the property by the owner for non-business related purposes. This may be for a social gathering or a person visiting a private residence. The owner has a legal duty to warn the licensee of any potential dangers on the property that the licensee will unlikely be able to discover.
• Trespasser ”“ A trespasser is a someone who has not been given permission by the owner to enter the property. In these cases, a legal duty is not owed to trespassers. There are exceptions however. The owner could be liable for damages if he or she intentionally causes harm or if the trespasser is a child that does not know better.

What Is the Value of My Slip and Fall Case?

Since each slip and fall is different, the value of a case will depend on several factors, such as the severity of your injuries and whether you require ongoing medical care.

Our Peoria slip and fall attorneys are prepared to evaluate your financial, physical and emotional losses to determine the amount and types of damages you may be compensated. You could be eligible to obtain compensation for the following damages:

Economic Damages

These damages are the concrete losses you experienced as a result of your slip and fall. Typically, it is easier to come up with the value of these losses by examining medical bills or costs of property damage. These types of losses may include:

Non-Economic Damages

These damages may be pursued if you have endured severe injuries that may have had an effect on your physical and emotional well-being. These type of losses may include:

If you have suffered a slip and fall that was preventable, it may be in your best interest to contact an attorney from our firm to discuss the legal options that may be available to you.

Is There a Deadline to Take Legal Action?

In Arizona, personal injury cases, including slip and fall accidents, must be filed within two years from the date that the accident occurred. This is mandated under the state’s statute of limitations. Taking legal action as soon as possible is important, since claims submitted after this deadline run the risk of being dismissed by the court.

Only certain circumstances allow victims to file differently. In cases involving minors, the child does not have to begin filing until he or she turns 18 years old. If you were not aware of your injury, the filing date would also not begin until it was reasonably discovered.

When in pain because of an accident all you want to do is focus on getting better and that is what did thanks to this firm. My family and I were set up with a Dr and Chiro right away. The treatment we received was great. I am extremely thankful for all the help we received and the outcome on the cases. Thanks to everyone involved on my case. A special thanks the intake specialist Rosalba who was very kind on the phone when I first called. I highly recommend this firm to anyone, they treat you like family.

Erika A.

I am so thankful for Ruthann and Maria. They both were amazing throughout the process. When Maria took over my case, I felt like I was being treated with empathy about my pain and experiences while treating. She also made sure to answer my questions. Maria always responded to my communication attempts and answered questions I had as they came up. She helped me with things I needed in regards to my case and helped ease the anxiety as bills piled up and my injuries were still being treated. I was able to contact her as I was treating and she helped find providers closer to my home to make it more accommodating for me. This helped me juggle work...

What can I say about Phillips Law group. I was involved in a major car accident and sustained injuries. I looked up for Law Firms in Arizona and stumbled across Phillips Law Group.

My case closed yesterday and I RAN to make this review because of how exceptional my experience has been with Phillips Law Group! I received the best settlement I could've hoped for and am extremely happy with the outcome; but I especially wanted to shout out and give praise to Julianna, the Litigation Paralegal on my case. From the moment Julianna was assigned to my case almost two years ago, until the completion of the settlement process yesterday, Julianna's commitment to exceptional customer service, clear communication, and unwavering support truly stood out. I had so many questions -- from the legal process, to where to seek medical treatment, to questions about medical bills, to the negotiation process, and more --...

I am very impressed by how much care and effort this group puts into helping the homeless. That’s not something you see enough, especially in this time of increasing need for community.
