What is a Slip and Fall claim?
If a person is caused to fall because of the improper design or maintenance of a building, sidewalk or other common area they may have a claim against the designer, builder or the person charged with maintaining the area. If the owner or management of a commercial building does not properly salt its sidewalks or the building has a design flaw that results in accumulation of ice where people normally walk they can be held responsible for this action.
