Holding Property Owners Responsible for Dangerous Conditions

Slipping and falling can be embarrassing. You may feel that the accident was your fault. But most slip and fall accidents are not caused by clumsiness. They are usually caused by a failure of property owners to maintain their property. If your injuries have required medical attention, time off work or other inconveniences, you owe it to yourself to learn whether you are legally entitled to compensation.
Exploring All Options for Getting Medical Bills Paid
As in many other accident circumstances, the first concern of many people who have been injured in slip and fall accidents is how they are going to get medical treatment and pay their doctors’ bills. A personal injury claim can take time, while medical needs are immediate. At the Seigel Law Firm LLC, we are experienced at helping our slip and fall clients explore payment options such as the following:
- Medical payments coverage on the property where the accident occurred
- Major medical health insurance coverage
- Auto insurance for people who were getting in or out of their cars
- Workers’ compensation for people who were going to or from work
If there are no sources of medical payments available, we can help you find doctors who will work without billing you until the end of your personal injury case. We are devoted to making sure that not only your financial needs but also your medical needs are met. Contact us to discuss how we can help you as you recover from a fall down injury.
