What to do After a Slip and Fall Accident
Were you involved in a slip and fall accident and you want to know what to do? Check out this short video for the top 10 things to do after a slip and fall.
Hey everyone, Barry here with the LawFull channel. If you haven’t already please subscribe to our channel and if you have any questions or comments reach out to me, if I can’t help you I may know someone who can.
0:00 Introduction
:32 Call the store immediately after the slip and fall happened
:56 Get a copy of the slip and fall incident report
1:17 File a report with the police department
1:40 Take photographs of what you slipped and fell on
1:50 Preserve evidence of the accident
2:25 Obtain the names of all witnesses to the accident
2:47 Look for video footage of the fall
3:48 Get medical attention immediately
4:25 Document everything you’re going through
5:00 Contact a slip and fall attorney
No matter where your slip and fall accident occurs, there are certain steps you should take to protect your rights. Here is a list of the top 10 things you should do to protect your rights:
1. Report the fall/Call security or a manager immediately - it is critical to report the accident right away. It takes away the store’s opportunity to argue that your injury may have occurred somewhere else. I did a whole video on reporting a slip and fall and I’ll put a link to it at the end of this video
2. Get a copy of the report the store takes and make sure it is 100% accurate. I’ve seen situations where reports don’t tell the whole story and I have also had at least one case where something that was written on an incident report made an entire case for us
3. File a report with the police department - it is really beneficial to have a neutral third party document the existence of the fall. Even if they don’t come to the scene of the incident, you called 911 and there will be a record of that call in their transcripts that you can order later.
4. Take photographs of the substance or object that you fell on. I have had so many people call me who were in slip and falls but they don’t know what they fell on. Well that case is going to be really hard to win. You’ve got the burden to prove your case mainly that the store was negligent so take photographs of what caused the fall.
5. Preserve evidence: that includes the item you fell on (the old banana peel or grape for example) but also other evidence like your clothes you were wearing at the time of the incident. And importantly, the shoes you were wearing. Go home and put them in a bag and let them sit. The defense is going to want to see the soles of those shoes possibly one day down the road.
6. Obtain the names of all witnesses to the accident. Nothing helps a personal injury case more than having neutral objective third party verification of the accident so if someone saw you fall or helped pick you up off the floor - do not let them get away without getting their name and contact information.
7. Look for video in the store. If it’s a big box retailer like a Walmart there will be video cameras. Ask to see the video - chances are they won’t let you. But when you get home send the store (or whoever the contact at the store is) a letter in writing insisting that they preserve the video and any other evidence they have of the incident.
8. Obtain medical care immediately - and tell your doctor what happened. Getting the facts of the accident down in the medical records is another way of corroborating what happened in the accident.
9. When you get home, document in writing what happened. Every single piece of information you can remember about the accident and date it. And then moving forward keep a journal of everything you are going through as a result of the incident. From the pain in your leg to not being able to sleep to not being a good spouse whatever.
10. Finally, contact a slip and fall lawyer as soon as possible. This is self serving and I apologize as I have many times on this channel but you’re going to do a lot better by having a lawyer represent you after a slip and fall than you are if you go it alone.

    Thanks for the video. Our insurance company, Liberty, has denied our claim 2-3 times regarding property damage caused by black mold. Our landlord, who is a slumlord, told us to evacuate after a Mold Air Test confirmed the presence of mold. Considering my mom's health issues, this cost us over $2,000 in hotel fees, food, etc., until we could find a new place to live. Both the insurance company and the landlord have refused to reimburse us. Liberty denied our claim initially, stating that the mold had been present in the home for a while. This is incorrect, as there were no signs of leakage or mold when we moved in; otherwise, we would not have moved in. Our adjustor never visited the property in person, making all decisions over the phone. We had a few roofing companies inspect the roof, and none wanted to get on it due to its severe damage. Their reports indicated that the roof needed a total replacement, with missing shingles and other issues. However, Liberty denied the claim again, as the reports did not mention the damage was caused by covered perils like hail storms or wind damage, etc. I contacted our landlord to get their insurance policy information, which he provided, and we started a claim. Their adjustor visited the property, took pictures showing black mold, and confirmed that the roof damage was caused by wind, a covered peril. We informed our adjustor and provided the landlord's adjustor's information, but Liberty still denied our claim. We have since moved to a new apartment and did not bring any mold-contaminated furniture or clothes with us, threw it away. I have proof of everything: texts, calls (North Carolina is a one-party consent state), emails, etc. Additionally, the landlord has moved new tenants into the home while still working on it, which is not safe. I have video recordings, with their consent. Also a man living there mentioned he'll be working on the roof, despite not working for a roofing company. The landlord filed a claim to replace the roof but appears to be having it patched up rather than properly fixed, imo. He did the same thing in 2021 or 22 when we lived there. He's a slumlord, and I want to sue him or the insurance company for bad faith ASAP. Something isn't right. I'm so confused and don't know who else to talk to. Please let me know your thoughts.

    Hi. I was driving and all of a sudden, a boy of 13 years old bumped into my car while trying to cross the street with his scooter. He was trying to cross the street in the middle of the street where there's no pedestrian cross sign. The child sustained superficial injury. Now, my insurance sent my a 5 page form that was asking for information if I have money in my savings account, stock, property, and my job place. And I was told by my insurance that the attorney of the boy's family is asking for the information. Should I fill out the form?

I gave my insurance documents to victims and filled a claim for that. Now he is saying that he has physical injury but he is a liar. I told everything to my company.

    Hello, i would like any information i can get. Back in March of 2023 there was a ball bearing in my food and I ended up damaging my teeth and jaw. The teeth part is about $6000 to fix. At the time i was working in a building supply warehouse doing hard labor unloading semi's. For about a month i was given the run around from a huge company and my face and jaw got so swollen trying to continue my job just to survive. I ended up hiring an attorney, about a month after hiring my attorney i ended up getting a letter from the healthcare company my job has been paying for, for 2 years and in the letter it stated there has been an event "reduction in hours" that resulted to me losing my medical, dental and vision insurance and I was also paying out of pocket for my fiancees insurance, almost $1000 a month. But i couldn't do the same hours because of my injury and completely lost everything. About 3 weeks after that my boss sent 2 workers to the truck and fired me. Before I got hurt i was up for a promotion and the best worker for years. I've been in severe pain to the point I couldn't eat to the point of being full. After i was fired i told my attorney what happened. Me and my fiancee had to move from Airbnb to Airbnb every few days doing little side jobs for survival. My attorney gave me the greenlight to send in the evidence of what injured me and after weeks they contacted my attorney saying they're liable for what happened to me that it came from their company. By the end of July my fiancee broke down and said she can't do this anymore and we broke up. I was homeless for a week and in severe pain to the point I can't focus on anything else. I ended up moving in with my grandma. In September I was told I need to see the dentist to get monetary offers. I had to borrow money and was told that we can close the case before 2024 starts. I was told by the dentist that i need to see a specialist and im not working, i can't even sleep until the sun comes up the next day out of exhaustion, I started to get really bad migraines after the times i attempted to eat. It took me until January to get enough money to see the specialist and once I did it took the specialist 2 months to send my attorney the official records of my estimate to the adjuster. About a month after my attorney sent the demand letter i got an offer that wouldn't even cover my treatment and I refused the offer in March 2024. On may 29th i was contacted by my attorney saying 2-3 weeks to hear another offer. Im on week 4 of that and sent my attorney 6 messages this month. My jaw is swollen to the point I can't even open it, the last time I tried eating was 3 days ago and my jaw cracked / popped. I have a big abscess infection on my whole jawline to the point I need antibiotics but i have no insurance, no job and no updates from my attorney this month. The problem is that i was only able to come up with money to check my broken teeth, i still never got my jaw looked at. I need to make sure i have enough for my treatments. I also looked up healing times and for the jaw it's possible I would need surgery and they say that after a surgery that the patient will have to spend 4 days in a hospital. Also I wouldn't have loss my job / career, my wages and benefits. They offered me $10,000 4 months ago. Saying $2500 for pain and suffering. I lost my love for eating food, i went from a healthy strong 144lb man to 89lbs. I lost $44000 in loss of wages, my teeth treatment is $6000, possibly jaw surgery is up to $20000. My pain and suffering is off the charts. This global company destroyed my smile, my life. Things weren't perfect before I got hurt but i had an amazing career, years in with great benefits. I had an amazing woman, i had an amazing social life. I took so much pride in my hard work and providing / being a man for myself and my little world. I lost everything, i can't focus on anything else but not screaming in pain to relieve. My attorney is my only voice to them and more than anything I just want what I'm entitled to going through this nightmare. I don't know what else to do or how to move forward and would really appreciate any advice. Thank you for your time and attention

    i have a question I have a personal attorney who is charging me fee's on top of original 35% fee. The calculations that the attorney is charging me are down right horrible and unethical . i agreed to a ten thousand dollar settlement and lawyer wants to give me $1,455.00. So lawyer off the top charged me 35% and im bombarded with all the extra fee's i was unaware of that I was going to be charged. I do not agree with attorney taking almost whole amount. Is there anything I can do? Lawyer keep sending me emails for me to sign on her calculations or fee's for me to receive my check. i have not signed their breakdown of fee's.

    I need to know what type of lawyer I need who might have a good understanding with this law? Illinois Statutes Chapter 720. Criminal Offenses § 5/17-56. Financial exploitation of an elderly person or a person with a disability. This law even state's all attorney fees will be paid within reason if they can prove guilt. A power of attorney got into two different pay on death agreements which clearly state the word agreement on the documents in the ball figure amount of $150,000 with a 90-year-old disabled person who is deceased now. I have all the proof, such as a doctors' letter of disability, pay on death certificates which say agreement, the Illinois state police investigation confirming there's plenty of evidence. Including the power of attorney who clearly admits she got into the agreement with a elderly disabled person. There's a Will, which state's nothing about giving any pay on death agreements to his power of attorney. She has connections with an Illinois county legal system, and sheriff's department through her husband who was a retired sheriff chief deputy. The State's attorney will do nothing because he knows them, who is now under review by the ARDC and attorney general's office. The FBI is reviewing the case on the criminal side, but I am looking for a civil attorney on the civil side who knows this law well. They're, state and federal laws that can be used to transfer this case to another court/county. I am assuming an elder attorney maybe?

    I had just come over train tracks and was crossing the street that ran parallel to the tracks, the other driver left their stop sign and ran into the side of my car. I reported the accident to my insurance provider, they told me that I didn't have collisonand that I was on my own and they didn't have to talk to me. The other driver had admitted to causing the accident on the police report, her company came after me and kept sawing that I caused the accident. They ran me around for over one and a half months. I kept sending damage estimates which that said never arrived. After I mentioned a lawyer, they suddenly found those estimates and started working with me. Well I can say that "she was in good hands", I think they are crooks.

    My current situation here, total loss... completely not at fault, I did not have GAP, my car is rare to find due to exterior and interior color combo (I actually drove 245 miles to purchase it 4 and half months ago), paid 7k cash down payment, I added extended warranties and other features and current amount owe to the bank is 25k. The insurance from person who hit me only is comparing around for generic models and therefore low offering. Their offer is 19k. Meaning, that I will be out of 7k (cash) plus the 6k (that I still owe to the bank). How is that legally possible and allowed by the law, to be a victim and ended up worse than before the accident that I did not cause? What options do I have to recuperate the difference?

      Unfortunately I've seen it many times before. Were you injured in the accident? If so, you might find a lawyer who can fight for you on the property damage too. Can you find anywhere any comps on your rare vehicle to show the ins co? Have you thought about filing a lawsuit against them if that doesn't work? Or perhaps getting an appraisal from an appraiser that you hire who knows about rare autos....

    Question I have attorneys taking care of the medical portion of my claim but I've been out of work for 2 months now their insurance took over 38 days to accept responsibility then I finally got a rental they gave me an amount that was unrealistic to replace my truck so they sent me comps that were not even close to my truck so I sent them comps local to me way different n they still ha nt settled they took my rental back now I've been out of a car for almost a month still not able to work I'm a sub contractor I have pip just wondering if they will cover a rental my lawyers don't do property portion of claim so I'm basically screwed at the moment any help or thoughts

      That's unfortunate that your lawyers won't handle the prop damage aspect of the claim..... I always used to help with PD... You can make a claim for any lost wages you want if you can document it. Question is whether they'll really compensate you for it. But I wouldn't let it go. This sounds like a typical bs insurance situation.

    I was told my lien from Medicaid was one price. Then, after I settled wound up being a little more. When I received a letter from the attorney saying they received the lien and knew what it was. And I wound up having to cover the cost? It really upset me. Because she also told me out of her mouth that I only had to pay ten percent, which it was only eight thousand dollars and it wound up being double that.

    • @LawFull
      @LawFull 21 день тому

      Hi - I'm not sure I entirely understand. Liens go up over time so I guess it wouldn't be that unusual for the amount of a lien to go up. Pending receipt of a final lien that is. So you were told a lien was 8k and it was 16k. That is a lousy situation and i'm sorry you're going through that.

    Thank you for the great video🙏My son is 19 years old. He ran a red light and T-boned the plaintiff's car. Our vehicle is registered under my wife’s name and insured for $100,000 with full coverage. Today, an agent informed us that the plaintiff's lawyer is seeking a $164,000 settlement, which is $64,000 above our coverage. We are wondering if they can sue my wife since she is the owner of the car. Also, considering our son still in college and lack of assets or employment, what legal action could they take against him?

      Hi - sorry to hear this. Why is your own ins co denying coverage? If both ins co's deny coverage, and you can't find a lawyer to rep you, you may have to file a lawsuit against the driver on your own. If the amount of your case is low enough, you could research how to do so on your own in small claims court.

      Morning - not entirely sure I understand. But very generally speaking, if the victim settles with the ins co, that means they are settling with you too.

(I only found out about it today when he finally contacted her) There were no pictures taken at the scene. No police were called. Nothing until today. If this was done properly when it happened, I'd take care of it, but it's been weeks. I don't know what damage she caused, if he was under the influence of anything, or what I should do.
