Insurance companies have done an excellent job minimizing a serious situation in the minds of prospective jurors. When many people think of the phrase “slip and fall” or “trip and fall”, their first thought is that a person should have been watching where they were going, and/or that the person filing a lawsuit for such a matter is trying to exploit the system. This makes the injury attorney’s job extremely difficult – we must overcome the built-in juror bias against our clients in such claims.
A slip and fall or trip and fall accident may seem minor at first, but many such incidents lead to serious injuries that affect our client’s health, finances, and daily life. When a fall happens on someone else’s property due to the premises owner’s negligence, the consequences often include expensive medical bills, missed time from work, and long-term physical challenges. If you have fallen due to unsafe conditions on someone’s property, you have the right to pursue financial compensation. Most homeowners and businesses carry liability policies to protect them against these claims.
At East Valley Injury Law, we help our Mesa neighbors (and people throughout Arizona who are injured from falls) understand their legal options after a fall. Property owners have a responsibility to maintain reasonably safe environments for visitors. When that responsibility is ignored and someone gets hurt, Arizona premises liability law allows the injured person to seek compensation for their losses. Our legal team is here to evaluate your situation and guide you through the process of pursuing a claim.
