What Does a Slip and Fall Injury Attorney Do?

If you or a loved one were seriously injured in a slip and fall accident, the last thing you need is the stress of battling with insurance companies and property owners over fair compensation. Insurance companies often pressure victims to accept their initial – and lowest – settlement offer. This tactic is effective because people recovering from slip and fall accidents frequently feel overwhelmed by the prospect of negotiating while medical bills and other expenses continue to accumulate. Even making statements to insurance companies without legal representation can potentially harm your case.

By hiring an experienced Texas premises liability lawyer, you have a dedicated advocate to handle the property owners and insurance carriers for you. Our attorneys have been representing injured Texans for over 30 years. This experience gives us deep insight into slip and fall claims, insurance company tactics, what evidence is needed to build the strongest possible case, and how the Texas legal system works. We’ve handled countless premises liability cases and gone up against major property owners and management companies.

The period after a slip and fall accident should be focused on your recovery, not dealing with confusing legal and insurance matters.

In addition to keeping you informed throughout your case, slip and fall accident attorneys:

  • Collect and analyze critical evidence including incident reports, photos, surveillance footage, maintenance records, and witness statements
  • Determine liability among multiple parties including property owners, management companies, and maintenance contractors
  • Document the full scope of your damages, from medical costs to lost wages to pain and suffering
  • Build a compelling case by consulting with safety experts and medical professionals
  • Navigate complex premises liability issues and property owner responsibilities
  • Negotiate aggressively with insurance carriers and defense attorneys for maximum compensation
  • Take your case to trial when necessary to protect your rights

Slip and Fall Liability Laws in Texas

In Texas, premises liability law is primarily governed by case law and Chapter 95 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code. Here’s an overview:

Property Owner/Occupier Duties Under Texas law, the property owner’s duty of care depends on the visitor’s status:

  • Invitees (business visitors): Highest duty of care. Owners must inspect for and fix/warn about both known and discoverable dangerous conditions
  • Licensees (social guests): Owners must warn about or fix known dangers
  • Trespassers: Minimal duty – owners can’t willfully injure them

Key Statutes

Notable Requirements To prevail in a premises liability case in Texas, plaintiffs must prove:

  1. The owner had actual or constructive knowledge of the dangerous condition
  2. The condition posed an unreasonable risk of harm
  3. The owner failed to take reasonable care to reduce or eliminate the risk
  4. The owner’s failure proximately caused the plaintiff’s injuries

Statute of Limitations Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 16.003 sets a two-year statute of limitations for premises liability claims
