slip and fall
A "slip and fall" refers to an accident where an individual slips, trips, or falls due to a hazardous condition on someone else's property. Common causes include wet floors, uneven surfaces, or obstacles in walkways. These incidents can occur in various locations, such as grocery stores, restaurants, or sidewalks.
When a slip and fall occurs, the injured person may seek compensation for their injuries. Property owners have a legal responsibility to maintain safe conditions for visitors. If they fail to address hazards, they may be held liable for any resulting injuries, leading to potential legal claims.
