Slip-And-Fall Accidents

Haggard Law Office is located in Hopkinsville and serves all of Western Kentucky.

Slip-and-fall accidents can occur in various settings, such as grocery stores, restaurants, shopping malls, parking lots, and private residences. They often result from hazardous conditions such as wet floors, uneven surfaces, inadequate lighting, or a lack of warning signs. When property owners or managers fail to maintain safe premises, innocent people can suffer serious injuries.

If you have been injured in a slip-and-fall accident, it’s essential to take the following steps to protect your rights:

• Seek medical attention immediately, even if your injuries seem minor.
• Report the accident to the property owner, manager, or landlord and request a written incident record.
• Collect evidence at the scene, such as photographs of the hazardous condition and contact information for any witnesses.
