About Slip and Fall Legal Cases

Every year, countless people are injured in retail stores, supermarkets, bars and restaurants, parking lots, apartment buildings, and private homes, requiring legal assistance from an experienced slip and fall attorney.  In many cases, these slips falls, and other accidents could have been prevented by the property owners.

Many people who become injured due to a slip and fall accident in a public or private place never consult an attorney because they do not believe that their specific situation or their injuries entitle them to compensation. Some examples of slip and fall injuries that often entitle victims to receive compensation include:

  • Fractured, cracked or broken bones.
  • Major burns are typically classified as 2nd or 3rd degree.
  • Accidents result in bone or joint dislocation.
  • Head injuries.
  • Injuries involving ruptured or herniated disks.
  • Knee, ankle, neck and back injuries

Tips for Handling a Slip & Fall Injury

  1. Be sure to report the injury and how you were injured to the manager, owner, or employee who works on the property immediately.  If an accident report is filled out, request a copy of it.
  2. Try to take as many mental notes of your surroundings as possible.  Write them down at your first opportunity. This is important in any type of injury case, especially in Premises Liability cases.
  3. If possible, take pictures of the hazard that caused you to fall.  Nowadays, most of us have cameras on our cell phones.  After ensuring you are okay, do your best to document the scene.  Document it yourself, or have a friend do so for you.
  4. Take down the names and contact information of witnesses who witnessed your fall or what caused you to fall.  These cases can often boil down to “he said, she said”, so the more witnesses who can accurately state what happened, the better.

Kerry took the time to get to know me and my Workers Compensation case from a slip and fall on ice at my employers facility. I would use her services again and recommend her to a friend.

I called to find out if she was able to take my case and unfortunately she was not able to but still she gave me deep detailed advice on how to proceed with the issues that I was dealing with. She gave me some brilliant ideas to eliminate the issues and I completely can't thank her enough for her time that she spent coaching me through everything!

Being from out of state, I called Vernon chamber of commerce to look for recommendation of a lawyer. Within the hour I was on the phone with Kerry telling her the details of my daughter's predicament. Her professionalism and savvy led to a quick result. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

My husband was in a car accident in March 2020 that was not his fault. We hired a personal injury lawyer that did absolutely nothing for almost 3 years. We found Kerry and she had his case settled within about 6 months. She was wonderful at communicating what needed to be done on our end and keeping us abreast of the case. We HIGHLY recommend her and her skill as a personal injury attorney.

Attorney Socha represented my family in a small claims case, I am absolutely amazed with the wonderful job she did in representing us is such a small case, she went over and above, dotted her “i” and crossed her “t”! If we ever needed representation in a court of law on any large or small case, she would be the attorney we would call.
