Slip-And-Falls: Common Accidents Should Not Be Ignored

Icy stairways, slippery sidewalks and other hazards can seem like the stuff of slapstick comedy, but the injuries sustained by victims of these accidents are no laughing matter. They are also one of the most common types of accidents, and their seemingly minor and everyday nature can make victims unlikely to report them or seek medical attention.

Causing A Wide Variety Of Injuries

While slip-and-fall accidents are common, victims can suffer a wide variety of different injuries.

Those injuries all deserve medical attention, and include:

• Sprains
• Broken bones including hip fractures
• Soft tissue injuries including cuts and abrasions
• Head and spinal cord injuries

Many types of unsafe conditions can cause these accidents. Damaged sidewalk and potholes that have gone unrepaired, wet floors without proper warning signs or accumulated snow and ice can all create an unsafe condition if property owners don’t take reasonable measures to fix them. In these cases, those property owners could be deemed negligent and held liable for the trips, stumbles and injuries that the poor maintenance caused.
