Working to Hold the Responsible Parties Accountable

Many people who suffer slip and fall injuries are hesitant to pursue legal action. However, if you were injured as a result of unsafe conditions on someone else’s property, you may be entitled to financial compensation to help with the cost of medical treatment, lost wages, and more. If a property owner, whether residential or commercial, is aware of or should have been aware of dangerous conditions on his or her property but failed to take the necessary steps to keep visitors safe, they can be held liable for your injuries. Our skilled West Helena slip and fall attorney can help you understand your legal options. At Stoner Law, we are committed to fighting for your rights.

What Are Unsafe Conditions?

In order to have a valid claim after suffering a slip and fall accident, you must be able to show that a property owner’s negligence contributed to the accident and your injuries. In such cases, negligence typically refers to the presence of unsafe or dangerous conditions on the property that the owner knew about or should have known about but failed to properly correct.

Some common examples of unsafe property conditions include:

• Accumulated snow or ice
• Building code violations
• Uneven floors or carpeting
• Insufficient lighting
• Inadequate security/signage
• Dangerous dogs/pets
