Bill did an absolutely great job and got me more money than I had initially anticipated. He's not afraid to say things how they are and will fight for you to get compensated fairly. His fees were more than justified.

Do I Have a Slip and Fall Case?

A slip and fall accident can occur on private property, public property, or in an establishment such as a casino. You are owed a duty of safety when you enter someone else's property; this is known as premises liability. A successful case must prove that a property owner acted in a negligent way, causing another party to slip or trip. In order to prove that the negligence of a property owner was the cause of your slip and subsequent personal injury, you must be able to demonstrate:

There Was a Hazard on the Property

It must be demonstrated that an unsafe surface or dangerous condition on the property was the direct cause of your slip and your personal injury. The hazard could be an uneven sidewalk, a liquid spill, or a sudden step up or down that was not clearly marked.

The Owner Was - Or Should Have Been - Aware

The property owner is responsible for amending known hazards and being cognizant of changes on the property that pose a slip hazard to visitors. When he or she fails to take action in order to eliminate the hazard and ensure the safety of visitors, a resulting slip and fall accident can be catastrophic.

The Hazard Resulted in Your Slip

You must also be able to prove that your slip and fall accident was the direct result of the danger that conditions on another party's property posed to you.

Do I Really Need a Personal Injury Lawyer

to Represent Me in My Case?

These points may sound easy to prove, but remember: the property owner will probably hire an attorney who will try to frame your slip as something that resulted from your own carelessness. That's why you need an advocate who can present the facts of your case in a way that convinces a judge, jury, or insurance adjusters that the property owner was negligent and that you are clearly deserving of restitution.

Don't make the mistake of assuming that the details of your slip and fall accident are inarguable. Trust your livelihood, your future, and the sanctity of your rights to a personal injury lawyer like Bill Kendall, who has been helping victims achieve justice for more than 25 years.

Victims Have Rights

Property owners must amend hazards or warn of any dangers on the premises. If you have been injured on another party's property, the owner can be held responsible for your personal injury by filing a premises liability claim

Kinds of Losses a Lawsuit Can Help to Resolve

When a slip and fall accident on another party's property results in injuries, victims are entitled to recover compensation for:

  • Lost wages
  • Medical expenses
  • Costs of long-term care
  • Any decrease in wages

You may also be entitled to compensation for pain and suffering. Many of us have had a slip and fall accident at one time or another in our lives, but when the results of a slip affect your ability to work and carry out the normal functions of your day-to-day life, the psychological toll can be immense. Mr. Kendall is a personal injury attorney in Reno, NV, who has spent more than 25 years helping victims collect compensation for the true extent of their losses, and he is prepared to help you, too.

Medical bills

When the Other Party Has Offered to Pay Your Medical Bills

If you have high medical bills after falling in dangerous conditions, accepting an insurance company's first offer may seem like a good idea. However, it is still best to have a personal injury attorney like Bill Kendall look over your case.

Oftentimes, settlements aren't as good as they seem. You need a lawyer on your side to look at all aspects of the case and ensure your best interests are met. Having your medical bills paid is great, but other expenses such as lost wages and future bills may not be considered in these offers.

Cases involving slip and fall accidents require an attorney who can help you navigate the complexities of personal injury law. While we can't undo the damage and pain you have suffered, Mr. Kendall and our Reno law firm will fight to help you get the compensation you need to move forward with your life.

Important Step

In Protecting Yourself After a Fall

When third-party negligence causes injury, you can't rely on human kindness to ensure that responsibility is accepted and restitution is paid. Instead, you can expect that a negligent property owner and their insurance company will do everything they can to minimize their liability for your losses and pay as little as possible in compensation.

Bill Kendall is not content to watch as innocent victims spend the rest of their lives shouldering the fallout of what a business owner, municipal government, or any other entity could have prevented by taking the bare minimum amount of precaution. If someone else fails to uphold their duty of care and causes you to become injured, request your free consultation with Bill Kendall in Reno, NV, today. Send us a message or call:

Slip and Fall FAQ

The Law Office of William R. Kendall invites you to explore answers to a few frequently asked questions about premises liability:

I think I have a premises liability case. How long do I have to file?

Nevada has a two-year statute of limitations on all personal injury cases, from car accidents to slip and fall injuries. That means that under most circumstances, you will no longer be able to file suit after two years from the date of the injury. You can expect that those two years will pass quickly as you become occupied with doctor visits and other necessities after an injury. Get in touch with Bill Kendall in Reno, NV, as soon after your fall accident as possible.

My child entered my neighbor's backyard to play on a swingset without permission and was injured. Do we have any recourse?

Even though your child entered the property without permission, you could still have recourse. An "attractive nuisance" such as playground equipment or a pool could attract a child who is too young to understand the danger of entering the property. Under the attractive nuisance doctrine, the property owner is responsible for taking precautions such as using a fence to keep children from accessing the attraction. If you are the parent of a child injured under circumstances like these, consult a lawyer as soon as possible.

I was assaulted in a parking lot outside a store. Does the owner of the store hold any liability?

It's possible that the property owner provided inadequate security, which could be considered a breach of their duty of care. If a lack of cameras, lighting, or other security measures is found to have contributed to the danger you faced, a lawyer may be able to demonstrate that the owner should be held at least partially responsible for your losses.
