It only takes a second for a slip and fall to change your life. Whether it's a slick grocery store aisle, an icy sidewalk, or a poorly maintained staircase, these incidents can cause serious injuries—from broken bones to head trauma—and significant financial strain. If your fall was the result of someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. That’s where ASK LAW FIRM LLC comes in, providing experienced and compassionate legal representation to victims throughout New Jersey.

Common Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents

Slip and fall accidents are more common than many realize, and they often stem from preventable hazards. Property owners have a duty to maintain safe conditions. When they fail, injuries can occur. Common causes include:

• Wet or slippery floors without warning signs

• Uneven pavement or flooring

• Broken handrails or poorly lit stairwells

• Ice or snow accumulation not properly cleared

• Loose rugs, cords, or clutter in walkways

When Is a Property Owner Liable?

In New Jersey, property owners and managers must keep their premises reasonably safe for visitors. To prove a successful slip and fall case, your lawyer must demonstrate that:

• A dangerous condition existed on the property

• The owner knew or should have known about it

• They failed to address or warn about the hazard

• You were injured as a direct result of that failure

Establishing these facts requires prompt action and strong evidence. Surveillance footage, maintenance records, accident reports, and witness statements all play a crucial role.
