SLIP AND FALL INJURY:

Occupiers’ liability is based on a simple premise: public and private property should be maintained properly. Was the flooring adequately maintained? Was the walkway suitable for pedestrian traffic? Despite these obligations, individuals in British Columbia slip and fall, causing injury as a result of another’s negligence. If you were hurt in a slip-and-fall accident, Tell Del can help you.

Hazards That Cause Injury

A serious accident can happen in mere moments — through a collision with an obstruction, or encounter with a hazard that causes a person to lose his or her footing. Among the kinds of hazards that cause serious injuries are:

• Icy or snowy sidewalks
• Unstable or broken staircases
• Spills or slippery floors
• Store displays
• Poor lighting
