Anaheim Slip and Fall Lawyer

Slip and fall accidents are common in Anaheim. No one expects to be involved in a slip and fall, or to suffer the injuries that result. These accidents are unexpected and sudden, as are the medical bills and lost income the victim is suddenly facing. When a slip and fall was caused by the negligent actions of the property owner or controller of the premises, accident victims can file a claim to recover compensation for their losses. While slip and fall claims may seem straightforward, they are not. If you have been injured, it is critical that you speak with an Anaheim slip and fall lawyer that can help you navigate the process.

Common Causes of Slip and Falls in Anaheim

Any number of hazardous conditions on a premises can cause a slip and fall accident. However, some of these causes are more commonly seen than others. These are as follows:

  • Broken or missing railings along stairways
  • Loose carpeting
  • Unsecured wires and cables
  • Leaks in plumbing
  • Uneven floors
  • Spilled liquids
  • Broken furniture
  • Poor lighting

Although it may seem obvious to you what caused your slip and fall, the property owner may refute your claims. An Anaheim slip and fall attorney will prove the dangerous condition resulted in your injuries so you recover the full damages you deserve.

You Only Have a Limited Time to File Your Claim

All slip and fall claims in Anaheim are governed by a statute of limitations. This is the amount of time you have to file your claim. In Anaheim, as throughout the rest of the state, you have only two years from the date of the accident to file your claim. There are some exceptions to this. For example, if you fell and hit your head, sustaining a concussion, symptoms may not appear right away. If you did not discover that you were injured until one week later, the statute of limitations would start on the day you discovered your injury.

If you do not file your claim before the statute of limitations expires, you will most likely lose your right to claim any compensation at all. However, that does not mean you should file as soon as possible after your accident. To claim the maximum damages you deserve, including the losses you will sustain in the future, you must reach maximum medical improvement. This means your injuries will not get any better, but they will not get any worse, either. You should speak to a slip and fall accident lawyer in Anaheim that can ensure you receive the medical treatment you need, and accurately evaluate your damages.
