Stamford Slip and Fall Legal Claims
Slip and fall claims may seem straightforward when a person sustains an injury because of slipping and falling. But to have grounds for a legal claim and recover damages, the injury must have been caused by another party’s carelessness or negligence. In general, certain conditions must be met for a legal claim, including:
- Negligence. Someone was careless, reckless, or did not take the appropriate level of care that most people would agree is necessary in each situation.
- Intentional harm. Someone else’s intentional actions resulted in the injury
- Strict liability. Hazardous conditions on a property contribute to the injury, even if it does not qualify as negligence or intentional harm
Proving negligence can be complicated, and the most important step you can take to improve the likelihood of a favorable outcome in your case is to hire a Stamford slip and fall lawyer with a solid track record of successful cases.
