Tempe Slip and Fall Injury Attorney

Qualifying Criteria for a Slip and Fall Case:

You might wonder, “Does my slip and fall case qualify for compensation?” We’re here to provide a simple and clear guide to understanding the key factors determining your eligibility for seeking the compensation you deserve.

Let’s break it down step-by-step:

• Your Visitor Status: When you were on the property where the accident occurred, were you there as an invited guest, a customer, or simply passing through? The answer matters because different types of visitors have varying legal protections. Don’t worry; we’ll explain how this impacts your case and safeguard your rights.
• Noticing the Hazard: It is essential to demonstrate the property owner’s negligence that he was aware of the hazardous situation or reasonably should have been aware of it to establish liability. Whether it was a wet floor left unattended or a broken step overlooked despite being reported, we’ll thoroughly investigate the case to make it strong.
• Comparative Fault Rule: In Tempe Arizona, even if you share some responsibility for the accident, you may still be eligible for compensation. We’ll carefully analyze the details of your situation, and no matter the circumstances, we’ll fight for the maximum recovery possible.

Our Approach to Slip and Fall Cases

At the Sorenson Law Firm, we truly understand how complicated slip and fall cases can be. Our main goal is to assist you in seeking the highest possible compensation for your injuries and any losses you may have experienced. Here is our approach to the investigation:

Collecting Evidence: 

One of the initial steps our team takes is to collect essential evidence to construct a compelling case on your behalf. This evidence includes but is not limited to:

• Photographic evidence: We carefully record all the details of the location where the injury took place, making sure to document any dangerous conditions or careless actions that caused the slip and fall incident.
• Witness statements: We interview witnesses present during the incident to obtain their firsthand accounts of what happened. The statements they make can offer valuable support for your claim.
• Security camera footage: If any surveillance footage is available, we try to identify and collect it, as it may have captured the accident. Having this footage can be significant in establishing liability.
• Your medical records: Our team thoroughly examines your medical history to understand the severity of your injuries and how they have affected your daily life. This information is useful for accurately evaluating the worth of your claim.

Calculating Your Claim’s Value: 

Determining the full extent of your damages is required to ensure you receive fair compensation. Our team works diligently to assess the various elements that contribute to your claim’s value, including:

• Medical expenses: We account for all past and future medical costs related to your injuries, including hospital bills, medications, physical therapy, and any necessary ongoing treatments.
• Lost wages: We will assist you in assessing the amount of money you have lost due to missing work due to slip and fall injuries, and we will try to receive compensation for these missed wages.
• Pain and suffering: We understand the emotional toll slip and fall accidents can take on victims. Our team seeks appropriate compensation for your physical and emotional pain.
• Property damage: If any of your personal things were damaged in the incident, the value of those items will be included in the claim that we file on your behalf.

Negotiating with Insurance Company: 

Navigating with insurance companies can be tricky because they often try to settle for the lowest amount possible. We have years of legal experience negotiating with insurance companies for individuals injured in slip and fall accidents. Rest assured; our team will handle all communication with the insurer on your behalf. We are committed to working diligently to ensure you receive a fair settlement covering all your damages.
