Brampton personal injury lawyers work with clients who have suffered serious injuries as a result of slip and fall accidents. These accidents are rarely accidental. They are caused by someone’s fault or negligence. In such situations, the property owner has a duty and responsibility to ensure that premises owned/operated/controlled by them are kept reasonably safe for all visitors. Health and safety codes should be followed. Breach of such responsibility causes dangerous situations where people can get hurt. 

When slip and fall accidents occur, the main focus is on getting medical attention. However, in the confusion that follows, victims and their families seldom consider their rights and entitlements. Injured victims have a right to seek compensation for their injuries. 

Apart from property-owners, corporations, groups, societies, associations, municipalities and government bodies are also responsible for keeping their properties safe. Report the accident immediately, get contact details of witnesses and try to get clear photos of the location/your injuries. 

While seeking compensation, there are several complex legal, medical and insurance issues involved. An experienced slip and fall lawyer can help you with the paperwork, gathering evidence, collecting maintenance and property records and assembling the necessary witnesses and experts to back your claim. 

It’s important to prove several things to build a satisfactory compensation claim: 

• Proof of Negligence
• Proof of injuries
• Proof that injuries were caused by the accident
• Proof of losses caused by the injuries 

You need to provide the injury law firm near me with complete and genuine information, ensure that you keep them informed about any compensation offers and seek advice before undertaking any negotiations or communications with the at-fault party.
