“Slip and Fall” is used as a term for personal injury case wherein a person slips or trips and falls on another person or entity’s property. The person or entity responsible for the upkeep of a particular property may be found liable if they are found to have been negligent in maintaining it. There are several factors that contribute to a person slipping and sustaining an injury like carpeting, wet floors, poor lighting, slippery stairs, and these should be maintained by the responsible party. Whatever the situation is, if you slipped and suffered an injury, then you may be entitled to compensation.
