Where Slip & Fall Accidents Happen Most
We regularly investigate and handle fall injury claims in Kosciusko and surrounding towns. Common scenarios we see include:
Wet floors in stores or restaurants with no warning signs
Uneven sidewalks, loose tiles, or potholes in parking lots
Broken or missing stair rails in apartment buildings
Poor lighting in hallways or stairwells leading to a trip
Icy walkways or entrances during colder months (when applicable)
Spilled products in grocery aisles that aren't cleaned promptly
These aren’t just accidents—they’re preventable hazards that could’ve been fixed if someone had taken proper care.
What It Takes to Win a Slip and Fall Case
To succeed in a premises liability claim, we must show that the property owner either knew or should have known about the danger and failed to take steps to fix it or warn visitors. That’s where we come in.
Our team works to quickly secure:
The sooner you call, the more evidence we may be able to preserve.
Photos or video of the hazard before it’s cleaned up
Witness statements
Store or incident reports
Maintenance and inspection records
Expert opinions when needed
Falls Can Lead to Serious Injuries
Slip and fall accidents may sound minor—until you’re the one facing an ER visit, a broken hip, or a concussion. For older adults especially, falls are one of the leading causes of serious injury.
We’ve seen injuries that result in:
Broken bones or fractures
Head trauma or brain injuries
Herniated discs or spinal issues
Chronic back or joint pain
These cases often involve not just medical bills, but also lost wages, physical therapy, and long-term pain. We work to recover full compensation so you can move forward without added financial stress.
How Frank Shaw Law Firm Builds Your Case
Insurance companies defending property owners often try to blame the injured person. They’ll say you “weren’t watching where you were going” or that the hazard was “open and obvious.”
We know those tactics—and we know how to push back.
Our premises liability team will:
- Investigate and photograph the accident scene
- Review store surveillance or maintenance logs
- Retain experts if necessary
- Handle all communication with the insurance company
- Push for a settlement that reflects the full value of your claim
We also explain what to expect at each step and stay in close contact. Clients know they can reach us when they need answers.
