slip and fall accident FAQs

Here are some commonly asked questions for slip and fall accident claims

Yes. A lawyer can handle all the legal complexities of your claim, taking the added stress and pressure off you. A lawyer helps gather evidence and deals with insurers. They also advocate for you and protect your rights.

Ontario uses a system called contributory negligence. If you share responsibility, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault.

Our lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t pay legal fees upfront. Payment happens only if your claim reaches a successful outcome through settlement or judgment.

Owners must take reasonable steps to inspect and maintain their property. Lack of awareness doesn’t necessarily release them from responsibility.

Yes, witness testimony helps, but it isn’t required. Photographs, medical records, and other documentation can establish your claim.

Seek medical attention, even for seemingly minor injuries. Report the incident to the property owner or manager. Take photos of the scene and collect witness contact information if possible.

Yes, but your recovery may be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to you. For example, if you were found 25 percent at fault, your compensation would be reduced by that amount.

Timelines vary. Some cases resolve in a few months through settlement, while others require more time if litigation becomes necessary.
