Slip & Fall

Spills, slick floors, and hazards a careful business would have handled.

Overview

Understanding Slip & Fall cases

A slip and fall sounds minor until it happens to you — broken hips, wrists, and shoulders, head injuries, and months of recovery are common, especially for older adults. And these injuries usually happen because a hazard sat there longer than it should have.

Alabama premises law asks what the business knew, or should have known through reasonable inspection, and what it did about it. Sweep logs, inspection policies, prior incidents, and video are the battleground — and video, in particular, is often recorded over within days.

We move quickly to preserve that evidence, examine the company’s actual practices against its written policies, and hold businesses to the standard of care their customers are owed.
