Slip and Fall Accident Attorney in San Jose

Personal Injury Lawyer - Protecting Victims of Slip & Falls

Slip and fall accidents should never be taken lightly. While it's true that many of these accidents are minor, studies from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reveal that falls are the leading cause of non-fatal injuries for all children up to 19 years old, and the leading cause of injury deaths for elder Americans aged 65 and older. Slip and falls are also the leading cause of injury and deaths at the work place.

Death and other life-changing injuries, like head, neck and spinal cord injuries, can be emotionally and financially catastrophic to victims and their families, especially when these injuries are caused by the avoidable negligence of others. If you or someone you love was injured or killed in a slip and fall accident caused by the negligence of others, you'd be well advised to contact an experienced San Jose personal injury lawyer right away. Depending on your case, you may be entitled to seek damages from all liable parties, including medical expenses, pain and suffering, the loss of past and future earning capacity and more.

Types of Slip and Fall Injuries in San Jose

Slip and fall injuries can occur anywhere, indoors or outdoors, including but not limited to, private residences, public sidewalks, commercial buildings and property, hospitals, nursing homes and even government property. No matter if the injury occurs at the mall, the grocery store, a neighbor's house, the post office, at work or at school, if the accident and resulting injury or death is the result of negligence on the part of individuals or organizations, the victims and their families are entitled by law to seek compensation for damages.

Negligence is generally considered to be an act or failure to act within a level of care considered reasonable under the circumstances, and which results in the injury of another. Types of serious injuries often associated with slip, trip and fall personal injury cases can include death, head and brain injuries, neck, back and spinal cord injuries, paralysis, paraplegia and quadriplegia, and broken bones to name a few.
