Falls Aren’t Always Accidents—Sometimes They’re Avoidable

Many slip-and-fall injuries aren’t just bad luck—they’re the result of property owners ignoring hazards. Whether you slipped on spilled liquid in a store aisle, tripped over an uneven sidewalk, or fell on icy steps, your injury might have been preventable. We help people across Pennsylvania and New Jersey hold businesses, landlords, and property owners accountable when carelessness causes serious harm.

Slip & Fall Injury Claims in Pennsylvania & New Jersey

Start with answers, not confusion.

  • What do I have to prove in a slip-and-fall case?

    In Pennsylvania and New Jersey, you need to show that the property owner was negligent. That typically means proving they knew (or should have known) about the dangerous condition and didn’t fix it or warn people in time. We gather evidence like photos, incident reports, witness statements, and maintenance records to show how your fall could have—and should have—been prevented.

  • What if I didn’t go to the hospital right away?

    It’s still possible to pursue a claim. Many injuries take time to show up fully, and delayed symptoms don’t mean you weren’t hurt. However, the longer you wait to seek treatment, the harder it can be to connect your injury to the fall. We recommend getting medical documentation as soon as you can and speaking with a lawyer to protect your timeline.

  • Can I sue a store or business for a fall?

    Yes, if their negligence caused the condition that led to your injury. That could mean unmarked wet floors, cluttered aisles, or failure to salt sidewalks during icy weather. We’ll look at the facts, gather proof, and help determine whether the store or business owner can be held responsible.

  • Is a fall on ice always the property owner’s fault?

    Not necessarily—but often it is. Property owners have a duty to clear snow and ice within a reasonable time after a storm. If they ignore icy steps, walkways, or entry areas, and someone gets hurt, they may be liable. We’ll evaluate timing, weather data, and maintenance history to build a strong claim.

  • What’s the time limit to file a slip-and-fall claim?

    In both PA and NJ, the general statute of limitations is two years—but claims involving municipal or public properties may have shorter notice deadlines (as little as 90 days). It’s best to speak with an attorney early so nothing gets missed.
