Belleville Slip And Fall Lawyer


When people think of slip and fall accidents, they may not immediately associate the events with serious injuries. Even if they themselves have been the victim of a slip and fall accident, instead of seeking medical attention or reporting the incident to the proper authority, they may simply leave the scene as quickly as possible, so as to minimize feelings of embarrassment.

However, many slip and fall accidents in the Belleville area cause local community members to sustain serious injuries. The injuries sustained in a slip and fall can alter the entire trajectory of an accident victim’s life. And, in the immediate aftermath of a slip and fall accident, the severity of the injuries sustained may not be immediately apparent.

After being involved in a traumatic accident, including a slip and fall, our bodies often go into shock, producing adrenaline that can delay or diminish the pain experienced. It can be hours or even days before slip and fall accident victims realize the full extent of the injuries they have sustained, and by the time they seek medical treatment, it might be too late to fully recover without complications, or to gather adequate evidence from the accident scene.

That is why, after being involved in a slip and fall accident, even if you do not immediately feel as though you have sustained major injuries, there are certain steps to take to make sure your physical health and your future chances of securing compensation are protected. After being involved in a slip and fall accident, it is advisable to:

  • Seek medical attention
  • Report the incident to the property’s manager, owner, landlord, or other authority figure 
  • Formally complete an incident report and request a copy for your own records
  • Take photos of hazards at the accident scene that caused your accident
  • Speak to people who might have witnessed the accident and request their contact information
  • Contact a Belleville slip and fall accident lawyer
  • Keep thorough records of injury-related expenses you have incurred as a result of your accident 

Many injured victims of slip and fall accidents do not immediately realize that their situation was, in fact, the result of someone else’s negligence. Indeed, in accordance with the province’s Occupiers’ Liability Act, it is the duty of property owners/occupiers to keep their premises hazard-free. Failure to identify and repair potentially dangerous maintenance issues or adequately warn guests about them could be considered negligence. 

If you were injured in a slip and fall on someone else’s property and are unsure whether you might be entitled to financial compensation, call 1-800-JUSTICE today and receive a free initial consultation with our Belleville slip and fall accident lawyers.
