Minneapolis Slip, Trip, and Fall Accident Lawyers

Home and business owners have a duty to provide a reasonably safe environment to all visitors and patrons, including a safe entry to and exit from their property. A slip, a trip, or a fall can easily cause severe injuries, resulting in substantial medical bills as well as lost wages.

Slip and Fall injuries are devastating and can often occur as the result of another's neligence. Examples of slip and fall injuries giving rise to fault include:

• failure to clean floors after merchandise has been spilled;
• failure to clean up slippery conditions or failure to warn;
• failure to mark dangerous areas to warn people of dangers;
• failure to repair holes, cracks, and other hazards on ground;
• failure to maintain adequate lighting in stairwells; and
• failure to promptly remove snow and ice after a large storm.

Slip and Fall accidents frequently result in severe and life-changing injuries, such as back injuries, broken bones, head injuries, hip fractures, spinal cord injuries, and traumatic brain injuries. Many of these injuries are serious and require a significant amount of medical attention and treatment, as well as therapy.

Shoppers visiting retail stores should not have to take every step with the expectation that there may be an object in the aisle, a wet floor or a spill creating a hazardous situation. All too often, victims of serious injury resulting from a fall, mistakenly assume that they were careless. This is undoubtedly, the wrong assumption to make, especially in retail stores.
