Understanding Slip and Fall Accidents

Slips and falls can happen in a variety of ways, such as due to:

  • wet floor;
  • trash or debris left on walkways;
  • uneven sidewalks and parking lots;
  • loose carpeting;
  • holes or ditches on the floor;
  • broken escalators;
  • loose handrails.

Common Injuries From Slip & Fall Incidents

Slip and fall accidents can lead to many injuries, some of which could have long-lasting consequences. Understanding the common injuries connected with these incidents is essential in building a strong case for your compensation. Some common injuries may include:

  • Head Injuries: One of the most severe consequences of a slip and fall accident is a head injury. Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), concussions, and skull fractures can transpire when the head makes direct contact with a hard surface during a fall. These injuries may lead to cognitive impairments, memory loss, and long-term disabilities.
  • Back and Spinal Cord Injuries: The impact of a fall could affect the spine, resulting in injuries like herniated discs, fractured vertebrae, or damage to the spinal cord. These injuries may lead to chronic pain, paralysis, or other mobility issues that significantly impact your quality of life.
  • Broken Bones and Fractures: Fractures and broken bones commonly result from slip and fall accidents. Whether it's a broken wrist, ankle, or hip, these injuries often need extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation and can lead to prolonged periods of pain and immobility.
  • Soft Tissue Injuries: Sprains, strains, and other soft tissue injuries are prevalent in slip and fall cases. While these injuries may not always be immediately noticeable, they can cause persistent pain and discomfort, affecting your ability to perform daily activities.
  • Emotional Distress: In addition to the physical injuries, slip and fall accidents may also lead to emotional distress. The trauma of the fall, combined with the challenges of recovery, may lead to anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Establishing Negligence in Slip & Fall Claims

In order to bring forward a slip and fall case, the injured plaintiff must prove the following elements:

  • The property owner had a duty to keep their property safe.
  • The property owner failed to perform that duty.
  • The failure to do so caused the plaintiff’s injury and damages.

Note that this also requires showing that the property owner had actual or constructive knowledge (knew or should have known upon proper inspection) of the hazard that caused the injury.

How Long Do I Have to File a Case?

Like all accident cases in Georgia, injured plaintiffs have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit for damages. However, if the defendant is a government entity (e.g., a slip and fall on unsafe state property), the statute of limitations is much shorter at 6 months from the date of the injury.
