Seeking Compensation for Clients Injured on Dangerous Premises
If you have been seriously injured after slipping or tripping and falling on someone else's premises, you may be legally entitled to compensation for your injuries. An experienced lawyer can help you pursue a claim against the property owner or the owner's insurance company.
At the North Vancouver law firm of Poyner Baxter LLP, our slip-and-fall accident lawyers have more than 30 years of experience helping injured people in British Columbia pursue personal injury claims against commercial and residential property owners under the law of premises liability.
Helping You Gather the Evidence Needed to Prove Your Claim
If you've been injured in a slip-and-fall accident, some very specific evidence is needed to prove that a property owner was at fault. The following are a few steps you can take right after an accident, where possible, to increase the chances of success on your claim:
- Take photos and gather other information about the scene of your accident.
- If you fell at a business, keep your receipts and other evidence that you were there.
- Take down the names and contact information of any witnesses.
- Go to the doctor to get medical treatment for your injuries without delay.
- Contact a lawyer before talking to anyone from an insurance company.
Our lawyers will evaluate the circumstances of your accident and the extent of your injuries. We will then advise you on whether you have a valid claim. If so, we will help you pursue the compensation you deserve for your lost wages, rehabilitation expenses and other damages.
