Slip and Fall Lawyers Lloydminster

No one expects to be injured while running errands, shopping in the supermarket, walking through a parking lot, visiting a friend, or engaging in other regular, everyday activities. Unfortunately, because of the negligence of other people– namely, the owners and/or occupiers of commercial and residential properties– unsuspecting community members can sustain serious, even life-threatening injuries as the result of a slip and fall accident on someone else’s premises.

Depending on a number of factors – including the victim’s age, physical health, and the conditions of the accident scene – slips and falls can have profound, life-altering consequences. Senior citizens are among those most susceptible to serious or life-threatening injuries as the result of a slip and fall accident. Indeed, adults over the age of 65 are 9 times more likely to be involved in a falling accident than younger accident victims. They are also more likely to be hospitalized or admitted to long-term care facilities because of the injuries they have sustained by slipping and falling.

Slip and fall accidents can cause numerous types of injuries that range in severity from mild to catastrophic. These injuries can include:

• Sprains and strains
• Bruises and cuts
• Bone fractures
• Broken hips
• Ankle and wrist fractures
• Knee injuries
• Concussions
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Facial and dental injuries
• Neck and back injuries
• Spinal cord injuries
• And more

The province’s Occupiers’ Liability Act defines the responsibilities of people and companies who own and manage properties. If a property’s occupier knows about a potentially dangerous maintenance hazard on their premises (or should know about it) but fails to take reasonable, timely actions to address it or warn their guests about it, serious accidents can occur. And when they do, negligent occupiers who have failed to fulfill their duties of care could be liable for damages incurred by injured victims of slip and fall accidents.

No one should be injured while visiting residential buildings, shopping at grocery stores, returning to their vehicles in parking lots, or engaging in any other routine activity.
