Slip and fall accidents are more common than you might think. In many cases, these accidents occur due to negligent property owners and are not the fault of the injured party. In this blog post, Tiemann Law Firm delves into specifics regarding these types of accidents and why hiring an attorney experienced in slip and fall cases is crucial.

Current Statistics Regarding Slip and Fall Accidents:

According to the National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI), slips and falls account for over 1 million emergency room visits annually in the United States alone. Moreover, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that falls are the leading cause of both fatal and nonfatal injuries among older adults.

Consequences of Slip and Fall Accidents

A wide range of injuries can result from these accidents, including sprains, strains, fractures, concussions, and spinal cord injuries. The recovery process for such injuries can be lengthy and expensive, often requiring medical treatment and time off work.

Why Legal Representation Matters in Slip and Fall Cases

Why You Should Hire a Slip and Fall Injury Lawyer

  1. Experienced personal injury lawyers understand the complexities of premises liability law and can navigate the legal system for their clients.
  2. A lawyer will conduct a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the accident. This may involve collecting evidence such as witness statements, surveillance footage, and maintenance records, which are all crucial to building a strong case.
  3. Insurance companies often try to minimize payouts to accident victims. A lawyer will negotiate with the insurance company on behalf of the injured party to ensure they receive fair compensation for their damages.
  4. In some cases, litigation may be necessary to secure a favorable outcome. A skilled lawyer will represent their client in court, presenting arguments and advocating for their rights.
  5. Hiring a lawyer can bring peace of mind and make the situation a little less overwhelming, allowing the victim to prioritize their health and well-being.

Slip and fall injuries can have serious consequences, both physically and financially. In the face of such accidents, hiring a lawyer is essential for protecting one’s rights and seeking fair compensation.

From the very start of my case the Tiemann Law Firm was wonderful. Perter came all the way to my home to sit down and talk to me about my options. He made me and my partner feel very comfortable and promised us he would take the very best care of my case. Peter kept me informed every step of the way and was always on top of things. everything was done in a timely manor and I always felt like I was the only case he was working on because he was so fast. In the end Peter got me back way more money than I ever expected. I would recommend this law firm to everyone. I am very happy with the outcome of my case thanks to the Tiemann Law Firm! Thank you!

I just saw my lawyer Jelena Tiemann on a t.v ad, which reminded me how much she helped when I was in a desperate situation. I just love her! That is why I feel a need to tell everyone. I had a situation that happened & didn’t know what to do, our where to go. I didn’t even know if she could help me or if any lawyer could. All I wanted was it to go away & was afraid most lawyers wanted to drag it out & possibly go to court. For one she was very professional but was very personable (maybe b.c she’s a lady). She didn’t make me feel embarrassed or self-conscious that I did something wrong or was the cause of the situation. She immediately said we should try our best before going to court. Let me handle some paperwork, if at the last we do go to court we have documents. She gave me all the details, pros and cons but reassured me she deals with these cases all the time. She came through and made it as painless as possible. I now have my life back.
