Answer:

We have been asked, “If I’ve been involved in a slip and fall injury on someone else’s property, what steps do I need to take to make sure that my rights are protected?” First and foremost, you need to get medical care and treatment. Secondly, you need to make sure that you have good experienced legal representation. Thirdly, we’re going to make sure, if it hasn’t been done already, that the homeowner and their insurance company has been advised and put on notice of the claim. That is very critical because we have a duty and responsibility to let them know about the condition that existed, especially if that condition is not a transient condition and it can be preserved by way of photographing and other documentation.
If you’re injured in a slip and fall accident and you’re at someone else’s property or house, make sure they’re notified, make sure you get medical care and treatment, and make sure you get experienced legal representation.
