Are slip and fall accidents different from trip and fall accidents?
Yes, they are slightly different. There are four kinds of fall accidents: • In a slip and fall accident, the problem is in the connection between your shoes and the surface you’re walking on. • In a trip and fall accident, the problem is a foreign object in the way, which causes you to stumble and fall. • In step and fall accidents, where a hole or depression in the walking surface causes you to fall. • In stump and fall accidents, an impediment causes the fall, such as a tree root causing unevenness on the walking surface.
