Slip and Fall Accidents: Holding Negligent Property Owners Accountable

Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere—at a grocery store, workplace, or public space. These incidents often result in serious injuries, such as fractures, spinal damage, and head trauma. Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe premises, and when they fail to do so, they should be held accountable. Michael Madadi and the legal team at BD&J, PC have a proven track record of securing compensation for slip and fall victims.

Common Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents

🚧 Wet or Slippery Floors: Spills, leaks, and freshly mopped floors without warning signs.
🚧 Uneven Surfaces: Cracked sidewalks, potholes, or loose floorboards create hazards.
🚧 Poor Lighting: Dimly lit hallways, stairwells, and parking lots increase fall risks.
🚧 Cluttered Walkways: Obstructions like cables, debris, or merchandise left in aisles.
🚧 Negligent Property Maintenance: Landlords and business owners failing to address known hazards.
