A lot of slip and fall accident victims in Canada feel like the accident was their own fault for being clumsy. However, in many cases the accident may be the fault of the property owner. Indeed, business and property owners must maintain reasonably safe conditions on their properties in order to prevent slip and fall accidents from occurring.
Some of the most basic tenants of reasonably safe property conditions include properties that are free from wet floors and free from unstable balconies. Property owners and managers must also keep their steps free of ice. Sometimes, those who suffer a slip and fall do not even know why the incident happened, but a thorough evaluation of the slip and fall accident location by an expert may reveal the actual cause of the incident.
At Krylov & Company, our team of attorneys knows how to analyze slip and fall events to determine who is liable. Sometimes, it is the liability of the property owner or the occupier of the property, and when that is the case, we know how to hold these negligent individuals and businesses responsible so that our clients can get the compensation they need.
Compensation for a successfully navigated slip and fall accident may include money for medical care, money for pain and suffering and money for permanent disability. While no results can be guaranteed in such cases, a thorough review of the events leading up to the accident, the accident scene and eyewitness accounts will typically reveal the most appropriate legal strategy that has the highest possibility of success.
