Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer in Salem, CT

Building a Strong Slip and Fall Claim

To succeed in a slip and fall claim, it’s not enough to simply prove that you were injured; you must show that the property owner or manager was negligent. This requires evidence that the hazardous condition existed, that the owner knew or should have known about it, and that they failed to take reasonable steps to fix it.

When handling a Slip and Fall Accident case in Salem, CT, I start by collecting detailed information about how the incident occurred. I’ll often visit the site, review any available surveillance footage, and interview witnesses. Documentation is key: photos, medical reports, and even weather data can make a significant difference in proving negligence.

Insurance companies frequently try to argue that victims were at fault, claiming they weren’t watching where they were going or that the hazard was “obvious.” My job is to protect clients from these tactics and present a clear, factual narrative supported by evidence. I also work with medical professionals and, when necessary, safety experts to demonstrate the extent of injuries and their long-term impact on quality of life.

Recoverable damages in a slip and fall case may include:



• Medical expenses and rehabilitation costs
  
  
• Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
  
  
• Pain and suffering
  
  
• Emotional distress
  
  
• Long-term disability or reduced mobility
  
  

I aim to make sure my clients recover every dollar they deserve, not just for immediate bills, but for the lasting effects that accidents can have on their daily lives.

I Stay Personally Involved in Every Case

When I take on a case, I stay with it from beginning to end. I’m the one reviewing the records, having the conversations, and making sure every detail is accounted for. I believe it’s important to know exactly what my clients are going through, not just on paper, but in real life. That’s how I’m able to build strong cases and give people the kind of representation they can trust.

I Keep Communication Clear and Honest

I make it a point to be straightforward with every client. If there’s something important you need to know, I’ll tell you. If you have a question, I’ll answer it directly. I know how overwhelming the legal process can feel, so I do everything I can to make sure the information you get from me is practical, honest, and easy to understand.

I Approach Every Case with Care and Commitment

Every case I handle is different because every person’s experience is different. I take the time to understand what’s changed in your life and what you need to move forward. My goal isn’t just to get a result, it’s to make sure that result reflects the full impact of what you’ve been through.
