Common Causes of a Slip and Fall Accident

A slip and fall can occur in nearly anyplace, and for a number of reasons. Some of the accidents are completely unpreventable, but often they are the result of a property owner who fails to take reasonable measures to ensure guests or visitors of the premises are safe. Our slip and fall accident lawyer Queens NY clients turn to have tenaciously defended, and won compensation, for clients who were injured because of the following:

Ice and Snow – Black ice is a common cause of a slip and fall during the winter. Owners and property managers have a duty to clear walkways and parking lots within a reasonable time. If they fail to do so, and a person is injured because of a slip and fall, it may be considered negligence. 

Defective Elevators – A fall down an elevator shaft can be catastrophic; often resulting in severe injuries or a fatality. These can be prevented with the right maintenance so that the doors of an elevator do not open without the elevator being present. 

Wet or Slippery Floors – When a floor has been mopped, waxed, or cleaned, a warning sign should be left to indicate the potential hazard. 

Lack of Guardrails – It is essential for a stairwell or balcony to have secure guardrails of proper height. If these do not exist, and a slip and fall from a considerable height occurs, you should consult a slip and fall lawyer in Queens NY. 

Improper Maintenance – Many slip and falls happen because of debris and hazards left on stairways, in hallways, and on outdoor pavement. Cords, boxes, uneven floors or sidewalks, and potholes can all cause a preventable slip and fall.
