When you have been injured in a slip and fall accident, it can be a confusing and challenging time. You deserve someone to stand by your side and help you navigate the complexities of the legal process.
Our team is dedicated to ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve. We work diligently to investigate the circumstances surrounding your injury and hold the responsible parties accountable.
From the initial consultation to the resolution of your case, we are committed to providing thorough, compassionate representation tailored to your unique situation.
A slip and fall case arises when a person is injured due to hazardous conditions on another’s property. These cases often involve proving negligence and liability, making legal representation essential.
Common causes include wet floors, uneven surfaces, poor lighting, or lack of proper signage. Understanding the specifics of your case helps build a strong claim to seek appropriate compensation.
By thoroughly investigating your accident and working with experts when necessary, we develop a strategy designed to maximize your recovery and ease your legal burden.
We listen carefully to your situation, review the details of your accident, and discuss your legal options to form a solid foundation for your claim.
Our team collects all necessary documentation, photographs, witness statements, and expert opinions to build a comprehensive case.
We engage with insurance providers on your behalf to negotiate fair compensation, aiming to resolve your case efficiently outside of court if possible.
If negotiations do not yield a satisfactory settlement, we are prepared to take your case to trial and advocate vigorously in court.
Seek medical attention immediately, even if injuries seem minor. Document the scene with photos, and gather contact information from witnesses.
Report the accident to the property owner or manager as soon as possible to create an official record, and avoid making statements that admit fault.
Missouri’s statute of limitations for personal injury cases, including slip and fall, is generally five years from the date of the accident.
It’s important to consult an attorney promptly to ensure your claim is filed within this period and to preserve critical evidence.
Missouri follows a comparative fault system. This means your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault but you can still recover damages if you are less than 51% at fault.
An attorney can help assess fault distribution and protect your rights during negotiation or litigation.
You may recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related costs resulting from the accident.
Each case is unique, so a comprehensive evaluation is needed to identify all applicable damages.
Many slip and fall cases settle out of court through negotiation. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, trial may be necessary.
We prepare every case as if it will proceed to trial to ensure the best possible outcome.
We offer a no-obligation consultation and work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless we recover compensation for you.
Our fee structure is transparent, and we discuss all costs upfront to avoid surprises.
The duration varies based on case complexity, the willingness of parties to settle, and court schedules. Some cases resolve within months, others may take longer.
We keep you informed throughout the process and work efficiently to achieve resolution as promptly as possible.
Take photos and notes about the exact conditions that caused your fall to support your claim.
Even minor injuries can worsen if untreated. Early medical documentation is vital for your case.
Ensure the accident is officially recorded, which aids in establishing liability.
Legal guidance early in the process helps protect your rights and strengthens your case.
