Slip & Fall Injuries Are Often More Serious Than They Look
Falls may look minor from the outside, but the physical harm they cause is often serious and long-lasting. Common injuries include:
- Sprains and soft tissue damage
- Fractures and broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord damage
- Chronic pain requiring ongoing therapy or surgery
- Psychological distress and anxiety
Slip and fall accidents are among the leading causes of emergency room visits, and many victims face months of recovery, lost income, and a diminished quality of life.
Do You Have a Slip & Fall Claim?
In New Jersey, property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe premises for customers, guests, and tenants. When they fail to fix or warn about known hazards, they can be held liable for the injuries that result. Common conditions that give rise to a claim include wet floors, uneven pavement, poor lighting, loose rugs, ice or snow buildup, cracked steps, broken handrails, spilled products, and construction debris.
Pennsylvania property owners carry the same general duty of care, and we handle claims in both states. If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies, we evaluate cases where fault is unclear and determine liability on your behalf.
Compensation You May Be Entitled To
A successful slip and fall claim can recover a range of economic and non-economic damages, including:
- Medical expenses (hospital stays, physical therapy, surgery)
- Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Mental and emotional distress
- Disfigurement or permanent disability
- Wrongful death damages in fatal cases
- Punitive damages when gross negligence is involved
We investigate every detail of your case, gathering photos, witness statements, property records, and surveillance footage to build the strongest possible foundation for your claim.
Where Slip & Fall Accidents Happen in Ewing Township
Slip and fall injuries can occur on almost any type of property. We represent clients injured at grocery stores, retail shops, apartment complexes, rental properties, office buildings, hotels, parking lots, garages, sidewalks, driveways, stairs, schools, nursing homes, hospitals, restaurants, convenience stores, malls, and construction zones.
In Ewing Township, high-traffic areas like Ewing Town Center and nearby shopping plazas are common locations for falls on wet floors, debris, and uneven surfaces. Local parks and recreational areas can involve falls due to poorly maintained terrain. Depending on who controlled the property when the accident occurred, liability may fall on property owners, landlords, business operators, or maintenance contractors. We serve clients throughout Ewing Township and the broader Mercer County area.
New Jersey’s Filing Deadline & Comparative Negligence Rule
In New Jersey, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. Waiting too long can mean losing your right to recover compensation entirely. Critical evidence like security footage, eyewitness contact information, accident reports, and maintenance logs can also disappear quickly after a fall.
New Jersey follows a modified comparative negligence rule: if you were partially at fault, you can still recover damages as long as your share of fault wasn’t more than 50%. Your compensation is reduced proportionally by your percentage of fault. Don’t assume partial responsibility disqualifies your claim before speaking with an attorney.
Steps to Take After a Slip & Fall Accident
What you do in the hours and days after a fall can significantly affect your claim. We advise injured clients to take these steps:
