A slip and fall can result in unexpectedly severe injuries. Back problems, head injuries and broken bones are common consequences of a slip and fall. Sometimes an accident is caused by the property owner’s or property maintenance company’s negligence. In these cases, the injured person may be able to claim compensation for their injuries, lost wages, and pain and suffering. A slip and fall lawyer can help you get the full compensation you deserve.

MS patients and slip and fall injuries
We have developed a special focus on people with multiple sclerosis (MS) who experience slip and fall injuries. Because the cause and progression of MS is not known, insurance companies and property owners take refuge in saying that exacerbations of MS were not caused by the accident that resulted from their negligence. We consult with neurologists and other experts who are able to demonstrate to a jury that the slip and fall was the precipitating cause of MS or an exacerbation.
