Slip and Fall Accidents in California: Your Rights and How California Trial Law Group, PC Can Help

Slip and fall accidents may seem minor at first—but they can lead to serious, long-term injuries that affect your ability to work, care for yourself, or live comfortably. These incidents are often caused by dangerous property conditions that could and should have been fixed by a business or property owner.

At California Trial Law Group, PC, we help clients across the state recover compensation for injuries suffered in slip, trip, and fall accidents. Our attorneys understand California’s premises liability laws and are committed to holding negligent parties accountable for putting others at risk.

What Is Premises Liability?

Premises liability is the legal responsibility of property owners and managers to keep their premises safe for visitors. When they fail to do so—and someone gets hurt as a result—they may be held liable for the resulting injuries.

Common hazards include:

Wet or slippery floors with no warning signs
Uneven sidewalks, curbs, or steps
Poor lighting in stairwells or walkways
Torn carpeting or loose floorboards
Spills or debris left unattended
Lack of handrails or proper safety barriers

Whether your fall happened in a grocery store, restaurant, parking lot, apartment complex, or office building, you may have a claim for compensation under California law.

Common Injuries in Slip and Fall Cases

Slip and fall injuries can range from mild to severe, especially among older adults. Our clients often suffer:

Broken bones, especially hips, wrists, and ankles
Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
Back and spinal cord injuries
Deep bruises and lacerations
Knee, shoulder, and joint damage
Long-term pain or mobility issues

We understand how these injuries impact your physical, emotional, and financial well-being—and we fight to make sure your recovery is fully accounted for.

Who Is Liable for a Slip and Fall Accident?

In California, property owners, business operators, landlords, and even government entities can be held liable if their negligence caused a fall. Our attorneys work to prove that:

A dangerous condition existed on the property
The property owner knew or should have known about it
They failed to repair or warn about the hazard in time
That failure directly led to your injury

This often involves collecting surveillance footage, maintenance records, witness statements, and expert evaluations.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To

If you’ve been injured due to unsafe property conditions, you may be eligible to recover damages for:

Medical expenses (past and future)
Lost income and reduced earning potential
Pain and suffering
Emotional distress
Rehabilitation and therapy costs
Disability and loss of mobility
Out-of-pocket expenses related to your injury

We handle negotiations with insurance companies and property owners, always aiming for the full compensation you deserve.
