How to Win Your Long Island Slip and Fall Accident Case

Whether you slip and fall at Roosevelt Field, McDonald's, Friday's or Target, you may be able to sue and get compensation for your injuries and other damages.

There are several ways you as a customer or patron can hold a business responsible for your injuries and win your case. First, if you can show the property owner or business establishment created the dangerous condition that caused your fall, for example a waiter bumped into you with his tray or spilled a drink that caused you to slip. Other times a condition exists that the business either knew about or should have known about but left it unfixed for months. For example, a broken chair or loose floor tile. It is important in these cases to prove two things:

1.) The business, and not the injured person, was negligent because a dangerous condition existed that was to blame for the fall.

2.) The dangerous condition that caused the fall was there for long enough that it should have been fixed. Usually witnesses can help provide support for these claims. If the condition just happened, like a slippery floor because it just started raining outside, the place might not be held responsible.

If you think you have a case, or have any questions, our lawyers can sit down with you for a free consultation to discuss your case. Some of the damages you may be able to collect for your injuries include: medical bills, anticipated future medical expenses, lost wages and future lost wages, pain and suffering, and loss of consortium-which is the damage to your relationship with your spouse or family
