A slip and fall accident can result in long term injuries and can cause hardship for those who have been injured through no fault of their own. The impact of a slip and fall can often go beyond physical injuries. 

An injured individual may be absent from their employment or may have difficulty performing their required duties at work. The law in Nova Scotia requires that a property owner, or occupier, ensure their property is safe. A slip in an icy parking lot, for example, can result in serious injuries. A property owner or occupier must take steps to ensure their property is free of hazards that could create a dangerous environment. You are entitled to commence a lawsuit if the accident was a result of the negligence of the owner or occupier who was responsible for the property.

Legal claims can occur when an individual or company, through their negligence, creates a hazardous environment which leads to a personal injury. An experienced slip and fall lawyer at Wagners can advise you about your rights. It is also important to document the accident and your injuries, including seeking medical attention from a qualified medical professional.
