Slip and fall accidents are among the most common causes of injury in California and Nevada — and often, they’re caused by negligence. Whether you slipped on a wet floor in a grocery store, tripped over an uneven sidewalk, or fell down poorly lit stairs at a hotel, the property owner may be liable if they failed to maintain a safe environment.
This blog explores the most frequent causes of slip and fall injuries, including slippery surfaces, broken handrails, loose floor mats, poor lighting, and even weather-related hazards like ice. We’ll guide you on what to do immediately after a fall: how to document the scene, report the incident, seek medical care, and avoid making statements that could hurt your claim.
