Slip and Fall Accidents

Orange County Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer

Did You Fall on Someone Else's Property?

Were you injured in a slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall accident at someone else's home or business?

If so, you may be wondering who is responsible for paying your medical expenses, reimbursing you for lost earnings, and providing compensation for the non-economic damages that you have suffered.

According to California law, all property owners are responsible for maintaining a reasonably safe environment for their visitors. This means that if they have knowingly or negligently failed to do so, they could be held accountable for any injuries that are suffered on their premises as a result.

With the help of an Orange County slip and fall accident attorney from Cohn & Swartzon, P.C., you can pursue compensation from the party responsible for your accident.

We can help you file a claim for damages that include:

  • Emergency transport expenses
  • Medical and hospital bills
  • Physical therapy expenses
  • Loss of past and future income
  • Pain, suffering, and mental anguish

How Do I Prove That the Property Owner Is at Fault?

In order to recover financial compensation for injuries suffered in a slip/trip and fall, you must be able to prove that certain elements existed at the time of the accident.

For example, you will need to show that one of the following is true in order to establish that the property owner was at fault:

  • The owner or an employee created the hazardous conditions;
  • The owner knew about the hazardous conditions and did nothing about it; and/or
  • The owner should have reasonably known about the hazardous conditions.

The third situation is by far the most common, as most property owners are usually wary of admitting fault outright. Under these circumstances, you will need to show that another "reasonable" person in the same situation would have noticed and remedied the hazard in a timely manner.

  • I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of honest, knowledgeable, and hard fighting attorneys.

    “It was such a pleasure to be represented by Cohn & Swartzon, P.C. recently. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of honest, knowledgeable, and hard fighting attorneys. After a car accident which involved numerous injuries, I couldn't handle the stress of dealing with the insurance companies. They completely took over for me. They negotiated with the insurance companies and as a result of their determination, I received a very fast and fair settlement. All during this process, they kept me updated on all the proceedings, always returned my phone calls promptly and answered any questions I had the entire staff at Cohn & Swartzon, P.C. were always courteous and helpful. Thank you ever so much!”

  • They certainly took the stress away in settling my claim

    “It is a real pleasure to recommend Cohn & Swartzon! For personal, prompt and excellent service they can't be beat. They certainly took the stress away in settling my claim. I am so thankful to them.”

  • They stayed true to their word

    “Let me begin by saying that I would recommend Cohn & Swartzon to anyone in need of legal advice. Both Jason and Saar are very personable and they provided a high level of service to me as their client. In addition to Jason and Saar, the entire staff always provided the utmost in service. One of the things that I liked was the fact that they stayed true to their word. They told me that they personally would take calls, if necessary. It was not very often that I needed to speak directly to them; but when I did, they were accessible. I appreciate the great lengths that they went to in working with an uncooperative doctor, who took a very long time getting a key report to them. They worked with the insurance companies and the adjusters, which took all of the unnecessary stress off of me. The Firm went to bat for me and we were successful in settling my personal injury case without going to trial. Saar was able to negotiate and reduce my medical bills, thus putting more cash into my hands. I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome, and the timing of the settlement couldn't have come at a better time.”

  • I am very happy with the level of service Cohn & Swartzon provided!

    “I am very happy with the level of service Cohn & Swartzon provided me with during my time of need. I truly did not expect my insurance to cover my legal fees, but I am sure that Attorney Cohn and Attorney Swartzon wrote a great letter to them. I hope that I don't need an attorney ever again; but if I did, I would go back to Cohn & Swartzon. And I would definitely refer my family and friends.”
