Slip & Fall

Falls caused by wet floors, uneven surfaces, or unmarked hazards.

A fall may sound minor, but the injuries it causes are not: hip and wrist fractures, head trauma, back injuries requiring surgery and months of therapy.

When the fall happens because of a dangerous condition the property owner failed to fix or mark — a wet floor, a cable across a walkway, an uneven surface — Texas law allows you to claim your damages. We build the case and fight for you.

Cases we handle

  • Wet or freshly mopped floors without warning signs
  • Spills or merchandise in aisles
  • Uneven or broken sidewalks and surfaces
  • Stairs without railings or with damaged steps
  • Ice, grease, or obstacles in walkways
  • Workplace falls caused by third parties

What to do if this happened to you

  1. 1

    Report the fall immediately to the manager on site.

  2. 2

    Photograph the exact cause of your fall (the liquid, the unevenness, the obstacle).

  3. 3

    Get the contact information of any witnesses.

  4. 4

    Treat your injuries the same day and keep the records.

  5. 5

    Don't give statements to the business's insurer without talking to an attorney.
