Springfield Slip & Fall Lawyers
Slip and fall injuries can occur anywhere from private residences to public buildings, parking structures, arenas, and more. When these injuries occur because of the negligence of the property owner, you may be eligible for compensation for your damages and losses. This falls under the legal concept of “premises liability” in which property owners and managers owe visitors to their premises a reasonable duty of care in preventing unnecessary accidents that can cause injury.
If you have been seriously injured because of a slip and fall or trip and fall accident on private or commercial property in or around Springfield, do not be pressured into immediately signing any insurance forms. If you quickly agree to a settlement offer, you may not be fully compensated for past and future medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses.
