Do You Have a Slip and Fall Claim?

In NJ and PA, property owners have a legal duty of care to maintain safe premises for customers, guests, and tenants. If they fail to fix or warn about hazards, they can be held responsible for injuries.

You may have a claim if your accident involved:

  • Wet or slippery floors without warning signs
  • Uneven pavement, potholes, or broken sidewalks
  • Poor lighting in stairwells or parking lots
  • Loose rugs or torn carpeting
  • Ice or snow buildup
  • Cracked steps or broken handrails
  • Spilled products in stores or restaurants
  • Construction debris or lack of safety barriers

Even if you’re unsure about fault, let our attorneys evaluate your case. We’ll determine liability and protect your right to compensation.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

We pursue slip and fall settlements that may include:

  • Medical expenses (including hospital stays, physical therapy, and surgery)
  • Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental and emotional distress
  • Disfigurement or permanent disability
  • Wrongful death damages in fatal cases
  • Punitive damages when gross negligence is involved

Our team investigates every detail—photos, witness statements, property records, and surveillance footage—to build the strongest possible case.

Where Do Slip and Fall Accidents Happen?

We represent clients hurt in fall accidents at:

  • Grocery stores and retail shops
  • Apartment complexes and rental properties
  • Office buildings and hotels
  • Parking lots and garages
  • Sidewalks, driveways, and stairs
  • Schools, nursing homes, and hospitals
  • Restaurants, convenience stores, and malls
  • Construction zones and commercial facilities

From public walkways to private properties, we hold negligent owners, landlords, and business operators accountable.

How Long Do I Have to File a Slip and Fall Lawsuit?

In both New Jersey and Pennsylvania, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is typically two years from the date of the accident. However, earlier action is often better—key evidence like security footage or eyewitness contact details can and WILL disappear fast.

What to Do After a Slip and Fall Injury

  1. Seek medical care immediately—even if injuries seem minor.
  2. Report the accident to the property owner or manager.
  3. Document everything—take photos, get witness info, preserve clothing.
  4. Avoid posting on social media.
  5. Contact a slip and fall attorney before dealing with insurance companies.

FAQs: Slip and Fall Claims in NJ & PA

How much is a slip and fall case worth?

Compensation depends on your injuries, medical costs, lost income, and long-term effects. Some settlements are worth thousands—others, hundreds of thousands. We’ll help you understand the value of your claim.

Can I sue if I slipped on ice?

It depends on the circumstances. In some cases, property owners may be held responsible for failing to address icy or hazardous conditions. Laws vary between Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and liability can differ based on whether the property is residential or commercial. If you were injured in an ice-related fall, the best way to understand your rights is to speak directly with our legal team.

What if I was partially at fault?

Both NJ and PA follow comparative negligence rules. You can still recover damages if you’re less than 51% at fault, though your compensation may be reduced.

Can I sue a store for falling?

Absolutely. Stores and commercial properties must regularly inspect and maintain safe conditions. If they failed to do so, they can be held liable.
