Slip and Fall Injuries

We have recovered compensation in a variety of cases:
Slick floors from foreign substances or fresh mopping
Broken pavement on sidewalks or parking lots
Neglected accumulation of snow, ice or black ice
Construction defects (steps, railings, walkways)
Inadequate lighting
Pedestrian knockdowns in parking lots
Property owners have a legal duty to provide safe access and to keep their premises free of hazards. We recovered substantial compensation for a Holiday Inn guest who had to find parking at a nearby strip mall. Walking back in the dark to the hotel, he fell into a ravine, fractured his leg and suffered other serious injuries. At trial, we successfully demonstrated liability of the hotel for failing to provide safe passage or warnings.

Our experienced Slip and Fall Lawyers in New Jersey are adept at proving negligence from the client’s account, witness statements, photos of the unsafe conditions, and the property owner’s own report of the incident. We research code violations and similar negligence claims, and document our clients’ injuries and economic losses.

Your full compensation is our sole mission. Contact Lee Law Firm, LLC, today for a free consultation. If we take your case, you owe no attorney fees unless we recover damages.

Frequently Asked Questions

New Jersey's comparative negligence law can impact the compensation you might receive in a slip and fall case. Our attorneys are adept at navigating these complexities, ensuring that the fault is accurately assigned, and advocating fiercely to minimize any reduction in your compensation due to shared fault.
Slip and fall incidents on government properties involve specific procedural steps and deadlines different from those on private properties. Our team at Lee Law Firm, LLC has extensive experience dealing with claims against government entities in Newark and throughout New Jersey, ensuring that all necessary legal requirements are met for a successful claim.
Photos of the hazard, witness statements, and incident reports are key evidence. Medical records also link injuries directly to the accident. Security camera footage can be particularly powerful in proving liability. Preserving footwear and clothing may show how conditions contributed to the fall. Quick documentation helps prevent property owners from altering the scene. Strong evidence improves settlement negotiations and trial outcomes.
Property owners have a duty to regularly inspect their premises for dangers. They cannot avoid liability simply by claiming ignorance. If a hazard existed long enough that a reasonable owner should have discovered it, negligence is assumed. Surveillance records, maintenance logs, and cleaning schedules often prove this. Attorneys focus on showing the hazard was foreseeable and preventable. This argument often succeeds against “lack of knowledge” defenses.
Weather can complicate slip and fall cases, but liability still applies. Property owners must address hazards like snow and ice within a reasonable timeframe. Failing to salt walkways or clear entrances may still be negligent. Documentation of weather reports and cleanup efforts helps prove responsibility. Attorneys often compare property practices to industry standards. Weather conditions don’t eliminate liability if the response was inadequate.
Choosing Lee Law Firm, LLC means you'll have a dedicated team of slip and fall attorneys in Newark who understand the local laws and court systems.
