About Slip and Fall Accidents

By Meyerkord & Meyerkord  Feb. 4, 2011 10:43p

Have you been injured in an accident on another person's property? Some of the most common type of accidents that occur on public or business properties are slip and fall accidents, which occur when someone loses their footing and suffers a serious fall. These types of falls can result in serious injuries to a person's head, spine, brain and other vulnerable parts of their body, especially if the victim is an elderly person or child. Often these accidents are caused by the negligence of a property owner, who allows hazards to exist on their property without taking reasonable action to remove the hazard. If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident, contact a St. Louis personal injury attorney as soon as you possibly can to receive legal aid for your case.

Slip and fall accidents occur from a variety of reasons, most often including hazards that exist in walkways or on floors that create dangerous conditions for people walking around the business, store or property. Whenever a person or business allows people on to their property, they are required to maintain reasonable conditions and take precautions to ensure the safety of anyone who may enter the property. Some hazardous conditions that may cause a slip and fall accident can include uneven or broken walkways, slippery or wet floors, poor lighting, as well as loose objects on the floor.
