Slip and Fall

Slip and fall injury accidents are a type of "fall down" accident that occurs when the interface of the victim's shoe and the floor fails. In a slip and fall injury lawsuit, both the property owner and the slip and fall victim can be held to varying degrees of responsibility or "comparative fault" based on the owner's duty to keep the property safe and the victim's duty to exercise ordinary care while walking on potentially slippery surfaces.
