At Babaians Law Firm, we help people just like you take back control after serious accidents. You might be facing medical bills, missed workdays, and long-term pain, but we’re here to help you hold the responsible parties accountable and pursue maximum compensation.

What Counts as a Slip and Fall Accident?

Slip and fall accidents happen when you fall due to a dangerous condition on someone else’s property. This could be a slippery floor in a grocery store, poor lighting in a stairwell, or uneven flooring at a hotel entrance. These types of accidents fall under what’s called a premises liability claim, which means the property owners or managers may be legally responsible for your injuries.

But to win your case, you’ll need to prove more than just that you feel you’ll need to confirm that the condition was unsafe, the owner knew (or should have known) about it, and they failed to fix it or provide a warning. That’s where working with an experienced attorney really matters.

Common Injuries From Slip and Fall Accidents

Not every fall ends in a bruise. Some lead to serious, even life-changing, injuries. Here are some of the common injuries we see:

Traumatic Brain Injuries

Even a mild head injury can have serious consequences. You might experience symptoms like headaches, confusion, or mood swings shortly after the incident. These warning signs could indicate a deeper issue, such as a traumatic brain injury (TBI).

TBIs often don’t show up immediately, making them especially dangerous. Over time, victims may suffer memory loss, difficulty concentrating, or emotional instability. Prompt medical attention is essential to detect and treat these hidden injuries.

Broken Bones

Slipping and falling can easily result in broken bones, especially in the wrists, hips, or ankles. These injuries are common because people instinctively try to catch themselves during a fall. Unfortunately, the impact can be strong enough to cause fractures.

Recovery from a broken bone often requires immobilization, physical therapy, or even surgery. The healing process can take weeks or months, depending on the severity. During that time, everyday activities like walking or driving may be difficult or impossible.

Spinal Cord Injuries

A fall that affects your spine can lead to life-altering consequences. Injuries to the back or neck can cause chronic pain and reduced mobility. In the worst cases, spinal damage may result in paralysis.

These injuries usually come with significant medical costs and long-term treatment needs. Physical therapy and adaptive equipment may become necessary. The emotional and financial toll on victims and their families can be overwhelming.

Facial Injuries

Facial injuries are common when someone falls face-first onto a hard surface. Victims may suffer broken teeth, jaw fractures, or deep cuts. These injuries are not only physically painful but also emotionally distressing.

Damage to the face can impact a person’s appearance and self-confidence. Scarring or dental reconstruction may require ongoing care. Restoring both function and aesthetics often involves multiple procedures.

Soft Tissue Injuries

Sprains, strains, and muscle tears are easy to overlook at first. These soft tissue injuries can occur when muscles or ligaments are stretched or torn during a fall. While they might not be visible, they can cause intense pain and swelling.

Healing often takes longer than expected, requiring rest, ice, and sometimes physical therapy. These injuries can make it difficult to perform daily tasks or return to work. Their impact on your routine and well-being should not be underestimated.

What Types of Damages Can You Claim?

When you file a personal injury claim, you’re not just asking for money, you’re asking for justice and a fair opportunity to heal. Depending on the type of injury you suffered and how it has impacted your life, you may be entitled to various kinds of compensation:

• Medical expenses (current and future) 
• Rehabilitation and therapy 
• Lost income and reduced earning capacity 
• Pain and suffering 
• Emotional distress 
• Punitive damages (in extreme cases) 
• Wrongful death (if a loved one passed away from their injuries)

These types of damages are meant to help you recover, not just physically, but emotionally and financially, too.

How Long Do You Have to File a Claim?

In California, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is generally two years from the date of the injury. That might seem like plenty of time, but building a strong case takes work. The sooner you reach out, the better your chances of securing evidence, identifying liable parties, and getting the help you need.
