Getting Compensation for Slipping and Falling
Slip and fall accidents are common occurrences at grocery stores, department stores and elsewhere. The truth is that many of these accidents could not have been prevented, even by the most diligent of property owners. On the other hand, there are a significant number that are the direct result of negligence. At the Bush Law Firm in Dallas, Texas, we hold property owners responsible when their negligence is the cause of harm.
Holding Property Owners Responsible for Negligence
In slip and fall accident cases, as well as trip and fall accident cases, many property owners will try to blame the victim. They will say that the victim wasn't paying attention. They will even go so far as to say that the accident was the victim's fault because of their choice of footwear or some other invalid reason. Our attorneys fight back against these blame-shifting personal attacks.
Ultimately, the property owner knows the property best. Customers deserve and expect a safe place to shop. In stores, displays are designed specifically to keep peoples' eyes on the products and off the floor. Customers cannot be expected to look at products and at the floor at the same time. The property owner needs to prevent any foreseeable accidents. When they fail to do so, we will hold them accountable and help you get fair compensation.
Groundbreaking Results in Slip and Fall Accident Cases
Our lawyers recently won a $4,433,000 jury verdict for the victim of a slip and fall accident, one of the highest verdicts for this type of case in Texas. The case ultimately settled on appeal for a confidential amount. The opposition had initially offered to settle the case for a mere $5,000, not nearly enough to compensate our client for the severity of the injuries involved.
