Orangeville Slip And Fall Lawyer

The injuries sustained in a slip and fall accident can require major lifestyle adjustments, long stretches of hospitalization, invasive surgeries, difficult physiotherapy, and other costly expenses related to the accident survivor’s recovery. Injuries commonly sustained in slip and fall accidents include:

• Broken or fractured bones
• Strains and sprains
• Musculoskeletal injuries
• Facial and dental injuries
• Neck and back injuries
• Spinal cord injuries 
• Paralysis
• Concussions
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Hip fractures
• And more

Seniors are the demographic most likely to be involved in a slip and fall, as well as the age group most likely to sustain serious injuries as a result of one. Four out of five injured seniors admitted to hospitals across the country sustained their injuries after taking a fall.

Slips and falls can be fatal, especially for vulnerable seniors. Injuries sustained in a non-lethal accident can also cause seniors to prematurely lose their lives.

For example, injured accident victims who sustain hip fractures because of their slip and fall may require hip replacement surgery. However, even when successfully completed, those who have undergone the surgery often suffer reduced mobility, often requiring the use of an ambulatory assistive device. Additionally, hip replacement surgery can lead to major complications with fatal consequences, especially for senior citizens. In fact, 30% of seniors who receive a hip replacement die within one year following their surgery.

In accordance with the province’s Occupiers’ Liability Act, the people or entities who own and/or occupy commercial and residential properties owe their visitors a duty of care. If someone’s failure to take your safety into consideration led to an injury-causing accident on their property, the at-fault party may be liable for damages you have incurred because of the injuries you sustained.
