Why We Take on Slip and Fall Cases Other Firms Avoid
One of the questions we hear most often from clients is simple and honest:
“Why do you handle so many slip and fall cases when other firms won’t?”
The answer comes down to preparation and willingness to do the hard work early.
Slip and Fall Cases Are Evidence-Heavy
Slip and fall cases are not easy cases. They require extensive investigation on the front end to succeed on the back end.
Many law firms shy away from these cases because:
- Insurance companies frequently deny them
- Stores aggressively defend them
- They often require litigation to resolve
Without strong early evidence, slip and fall cases are difficult to win.
We Build the Case Before the Fight Starts
Our firm has been successful in slip and fall cases because we do the work before the insurance company ever makes a decision.
That includes:
- Preserving all available video footage
- Investigating how long the hazard existed
- Determining whether the store knew or should have known about the danger
- Examining store layout, traffic flow, and inspection procedures
- Identifying witnesses and prior complaints
When this work is done correctly, we are able to present a case that insurance companies take seriously.
Many Firms Avoid Litigation. We Don’t.
The reality is that many slip and fall cases do not settle quickly. They often require litigation and, in some cases, trial.
Some firms choose not to take these cases because:
- Litigation takes time
- It requires resources and experience
- Results are not immediate
We take a different approach. If litigation is necessary to protect our client’s rights, we are prepared to do it.
The Result: Better Outcomes for Injured Clients
By committing to thorough investigation and being willing to litigate when necessary, we have been able to achieve strong results for clients injured in slip and fall accidents.
If you were injured because a property owner failed to keep their premises safe, your case deserves careful evaluation and serious representation.
