Slip and Fall Attorney in Denison

Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer in Sherman and Grayson County

Slip and fall accidents occur when a person invited to be on someone else’s property, slips or trips on that property and sustains a bodily injury. These types of injuries can occur in a home (other than your own) or at a business or location open to the public, like a wedding venue or an amusement park. 

Besides getting immediate and consistent treatment for your injuries caused by the slip and fall accident, the most important actions to take when you are involved in a slip and fall accident are to report the accident to the property owner immediately or as soon as possible and to gather all slip and fall evidence.

Important evidence-gathering steps to take after a slip and fall accident injury are as follows:

• If you are on commercial property, make a report to the manager and get a copy of the report. Most commercial properties should have their form that you will need to complete.
• If you are on private property, write a report to the property owner, and make sure to get a copy of the report. You will most likely need to write essential facts, like address, date, time, a brief description of how the injury occurred, injuries, etc., then sign the paper and, if possible, have the property owner sign it.
• Take photographs of the dangerous condition that caused your slip and fall accident.
• If there is a video recording of the slip and fall accident - Request that the video evidence not be destroyed and request a copy.
• Get written and/or digitally recorded statements, with contact information, from every witness to the slip and fall accident and the dangerous condition.
• Take photographs of your injuries, from the very beginning until they have completely healed or if there is scarring until the scarring has stopped changing.
