Common Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents Due to Negligence
- Icy or Snowy Surfaces: Neglected parking lots and sidewalks increase the risk of dangerous falls.
- Poor Lighting: Inadequate lighting in stairways, sidewalks, or parking lots can lead to unseen hazards.
- Wet or Slippery Floors: Lack of proper signage for wet floors creates unnecessary slip risks.
- Obstructions and Hazards: Tripping over poorly maintained walkways or unnoticed defects can result in severe injuries.
- Neglected Maintenance: Faulty stairways, broken flooring, or unaddressed hazards can cause life-altering accidents.
Sometimes people slip or trip because of factors having nothing to do with someone else’s negligence. But in other situations, the carelessness of a property owner or property occupant can lead to conditions that cause this type of accident.
These conditions include:
- Icy parking lots
- Icy/snowy sidewalks
- Inadequate lighting on stairways, sidewalks or parking lots
- Slippery, wet floors without proper signage
- Obstructions or defects that are tripping hazards
- Poorly maintained walkways, stairways or flooring
Any of these things can lead to a fall so catastrophic that you are left with life-altering, even disabling physical injuries.
