A sudden slip and fall can result in painful injuries, expensive medical bills, lost wages, and long-term physical challenges. These accidents can happen in grocery stores, shopping malls, restaurants, apartment complexes, parking lots, and workplaces. When hazardous property conditions contribute to an accident, understanding your legal rights is an important first step toward seeking compensation.

What Causes Slip and Fall Accidents?

Common causes include wet or slippery floors, uneven walkways, broken stairs, loose carpeting, poor lighting, damaged flooring, and obstacles left in walking areas. Property owners and occupiers may have a legal duty to address certain hazards or provide adequate warnings, depending on the circumstances.

Under Texas premises liability law, establishing responsibility often requires examining the property owner’s knowledge of the dangerous condition, whether reasonable care was exercised, and how the hazard contributed to the injury.

What Should You Do After a Slip and Fall?

Taking appropriate steps after an accident can help protect your health and preserve important evidence.

Call 911 and seek medical attention: Get prompt medical care, even if your injuries initially seem minor.
Talk to Eyewitnesses: As eyewitnesses at the accident scene, for their contact information including names, mobile phone numbers, and email addresses, so your lawyer can follow up with each witness to obtain their statements.
Document the scene: Take photographs of the hazard, surrounding area, and visible injuries.
Report the incident: Notify the property owner, manager, or responsible authority.
Keep records: Save medical bills, treatment records, receipts, and details of missed work.
Seek legal guidance: Consult an experienced attorney to understand your options and applicable deadlines.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our attorney Mariana Ehrenberg was highly recommended by my parents. My experience with SHEV Law Group in Dallas was exceptional. First of all, Mariana is a very knowledgeable and experienced attorney. It was such a pleasure utilizing her services. She is very thorough and very personable. She met with my husband and me and took the time to get to know us. Mariana and her office staff were also amazing. Norelia and Ruth were the ones I had the pleasure of interacting with, and they were always accessible, polite and efficient. With their help, we were able to navigate legal waters with ease and achieve our goals far sooner than we anticipated. I became a permanent resident within six months of starting the process. We are truly thankful to SHEV Law Group Dallas, Norelia and Ruth for everything they did for us. Their price is more than fair, and honestly, I would pay double just for the peace of mind they afforded us. I would 100% recommend to any friends and family that needed help. Don’t waste your time and money with anyone else. Please do your self a favor and let them represent you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. La abogada Mariana Ehrenberg y su esposo llevaron el caso de mi esposo y el mío fueron más de dos años donde en todo momento ellos y su equipo fueron amables, asertivos, humanos y hasta ellos último momento fueron sinceros y honestos con nosotros. No tengo palabras para agradecer todo lo que hicieron por nosotros desde escucharnos durante el proceso hasta estudiar cada detalle de nuestro caso para defenderlo ante el Juez. Son un equipo muy capacitado, siempre atentos a cualquier cambio o detalle, los recomiendo encarecidamente y sobretodo le agradezco a Dios que nos permitió que ellos llevaran nuestro proceso. Muchas gracias !

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m so glad I went with SHEV Law Group for my marriage-based green card application. They were so kind and made the whole process feel way less stressful than I expected. They kept me updated every step of the way and were always quick to answer my questions, which I really appreciated. Everything was handled super smoothly and efficiently, and my application got approved without any issues. I can’t thank them enough for how communicative and supportive they were. If you need help with immigration stuff, I’d 100% recommend them!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had questions about my employer-sponsored permanent residence. And met with Mariana to discuss them. She was extremely helpful, answering questions I had, and offering very useful suggestions to navigate the situation. She also explained how lawyers charge for services in general and offered recommendations on how I might minimize my costs while retaining the services of a lawyer. Would definitely recommend, I know I'd return if I needed further advising / additional services, but her advice was comprehensive within our single session.

Owner's reply
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad Mariana could provide helpful guidance and practical suggestions. It's great to know her advice covered your needs, and we appreciate your recommendation.
