Slip and Falls
It's important that after a slip and fall, you protect your rights and prove liability. I can help secure fair compensation for medical costs and lost wages.
Slip and Fall Injuries Can Be Serious
Slip and fall accidents may seem minor, but they can result in serious injuries including broken bones, head injuries, back and spinal injuries, and hip fractures. Property owners have a duty to maintain safe premises, and when they fail in that duty, you may be entitled to compensation.
Proving liability in slip and fall cases requires demonstrating that the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and failed to address it. With my experience on both sides of personal injury cases, I know how to build a strong case for you.

Common questions about premises liability and slip and fall claims in Washington.
You need to show the owner knew (or should have known) about the dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn you. Evidence like incident reports, security footage, maintenance logs, and witness statements are crucial—which is why quick action matters.
Property owners often blame victims for not watching where they were walking. However, stores have a duty to maintain safe premises. If a spill was left unattended or a hazard wasn't marked, the store may be liable regardless of their claims.
Washington law requires 'reasonable' time to discover and address hazards. What's reasonable depends on the situation—a store should clean up spills within minutes, while a pothole might require days to repair. I analyze the specific facts of your case.
You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future medical care. Falls often cause serious injuries like fractures, head trauma, and back injuries that require extensive treatment and rehabilitation.
Yes, always report it and get documentation if possible. Ask for a copy of the incident report. Take photos of the hazard immediately. Get contact information from witnesses. This evidence is crucial for your claim.
Washington's statute of limitations is 3 years for most personal injury claims (RCW 4.16.080). However, claims against government entities have much shorter deadlines. Contact me promptly to protect your rights.
