Slips and Fall Lawyer

Slips and falls are a very common way to be injured. In fact, they are the number one cause for an emergency room visit. Unfortunately, many people experience a bad fall more than once in their lifetime. Much of the time these falls are preventable but happen all the same. When slips and falls are not the fault of the victim, the best route is to secure the services of a personal injury attorney. That is why if you need a slip and fall injury attorney in the Jenkintown or Philadelphia area, you need to call an experienced attorney like Randy H. Kaplan.

Do I Need a Personal Injury Attorney for My Injuries?

When a slip or fall occurs, three things happen: an injury occurs, a hospital visit happens, and money is lost. Whether the fall happens at work or at home, there can be a significant effect on one’s bank account. There are charges from the hospital and possibly the loss of money due to forced time off work. This is where a slip and fall lawyer comes in. People living in Bucks, Montgomery County or Philadelphia have many options when it comes to finding a professional slip and fall lawyerPersonal injury attorneys help in these situations by:

  • Conducting professional investigations into the claim.
  • Representing a client in court.
  • Working as a mediator between the client and healthcare providers.
  • Giving advice on the best steps to take.
  • Explaining the rights of the client.
  • Estimating total incurred damages.

Slips and Falls Can Happen Anywhere

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2015 there were 800 work fatalities due to falls. Those are only the falls resulting in death occurring on the job, not the falls that cause nonfatal injuries. There are even more slips and falls that happen at one’s home or at a public place. How the fall happens will depend on whether a lawyer is needed, but requesting advice is usually a good choice.Common Places for Falls to Occur:

  • On Steps
  • At construction sites
  • On ice
  • On the sidewalk
  • At work

Slip & Fall Lawyer Serving Jenkintown, Bensalem, Cherry Hill, & Philadelphia

Where a fall occurs will depend on the next steps taken. After the hospital visit is over and time off work has been calculated, it can be decided whether or not to bring in a personal injury lawyer. Worker’s compensation claims are typically taken care of by the company in a timely manner. However, if the insurance company is dragging their feet or they aren’t compensating enough to cover expenses, a slip and fall attorney should be contacted. Other types of falls, such as falling on ice, will depend on whether someone else was negligent. If a fall occurs on ice that hasn’t been cleared outside a store, then there could be a case for negligence. Determine what type of fall occurred and whether a lawyer is needed. Our Jenkintown slip and fall law firm is available to answer questions as well and can help be the deciding factor.
