Slip & Fall Accident Lawyer in Newtown

The period that follows a slip and fall injury—from the minutes immediately after the accident, to the days, weeks, and months of recovery that follow—can be a source of extreme stress. Though it can be overwhelming, there are a few important things to take care of if you want the best chance at a favorable outcome to your case.

First, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible after your accident. It is important for your health to do so, as waiting too long to address a serious injury can make it harder to treat the ailment. Also, the less time that passes between the accident and the diagnosis of your injuries, the easier it is to draw a causal link from one to the other.

If you are able, try to identify any witnesses at the scene. Collect their contact information, as getting statements from these people can also strengthen your case.

Next, schedule a free consultation with the legal team at Cordisco & Saile LLC. We will sit down with you, examine the evidence in your case, figure out which parties are potentially liable, and offer straightforward advice on the damages for which you might be eligible. We can get to work on your case right away, assembling evidence and building a case against the liable party or parties.

If you experienced any of the following—or any other type of slip-and-fall accident—you may have a valid claim:

• Your slipped and fell on a slippery or wet floor;
• Your accident occurred due to a pothole or uneven section of pavement;
• You slipped and fell on a staircase with a loose or missing step or a missing handrail;
• You tripped over an unmarked floor hazard, such as a hard-to-see wire or electrical cord; or
• You fell due to poor lighting or insufficient visibility.

If your injury occurred due to any of the above situations, someone else was probably at least partly responsible. We can help you hold the responsible party liable and win a fair settlement.
