Common Slip and Fall Injuries in Hartford

Slip-and-fall accidents can cause a wide range of injuries, some of which may require ongoing medical care. Common injuries include:

Soft Tissue Injuries

These include sprains, strains, and tears in muscles, tendons, or ligaments, often difficult to diagnose and treat.

Head Injuries

Concussions or more serious head trauma may result from a fall. Even seemingly minor bumps to the head require careful monitoring and treatment.

Broken Bones and Fractures

Slip and fall accidents often result in broken bones. These injuries can vary from minor fractures to severe breaks requiring surgery and long-term rehabilitation.

Spinal Cord Injuries

Falls can lead to spinal injuries that have life-altering consequences, including paralysis and long-term medical care.

Cuts and Bruises

Minor falls can still cause significant pain and injuries, including cuts, bruises, and abrasions. Even these injuries can lead to long-term issues if untreated.

At Goff Law Group, we’ve helped countless clients in Hartford recover compensation for these and other injuries after slip and fall accidents.

When Should You Pursue a Slip and Fall Injury Claim?

Not every slip and fall accident gives rise to a valid claim, but if you’ve been injured on someone else’s property due to their negligence, you may have legal grounds to pursue compensation. Factors that affect whether you have a claim include:

  • Was the property owner aware of the hazardous condition?
  • Did the owner fail to fix or warn about the hazard?
  • Was the dangerous condition preventable?

Our experienced Hartford slip and fall lawyers at Goff Law Group will thoroughly investigate your case to determine if you have a claim. If we move forward, we’ll work tirelessly to hold the responsible parties accountable and seek fair compensation for your injuries.

What to Do After a Slip and Fall Accident

It’s important to act quickly after a slip-and-fall incident. Here are key steps you should take:

  • Report the incident: Notify the property owner, manager, or staff immediately after the fall.
  • Seek medical attention: Even if you don’t feel injured right away, seek a medical evaluation to rule out internal injuries.
  • Document the scene: If possible, take pictures of the hazard that caused your fall and any visible injuries.
  • Preserve evidence: Keep all medical records, receipts, and other documents related to your accident.

Once you’ve taken these steps, contact Goff Law Group to discuss your case with a trusted attorney. We’ll guide you through the legal process and ensure your rights are protected.

Who Is Responsible for Your Safety?

The level of responsibility a property owner has toward you depends on your status as a visitor:

Invitees

These are individuals invited onto the property, such as customers in a store. Property owners owe the highest duty of care to invitees, ensuring they’re kept safe from hazards.

Licensees

These are social guests. Property owners must warn them of dangers they know about but aren’t obligated to take proactive steps to prevent accidents.

Trespassers

Property owners have limited responsibility toward trespassers but cannot intentionally harm them.

What Compensation Can You Seek After a Slip and Fall?

If you’ve been injured in a slip and fall accident, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. Some damages you could seek include:

  • Medical Expenses – Past and future medical bills for hospital stays, surgeries, and rehabilitation.
  • Lost Wages – Compensation for the income lost due to the injury.
  • Pain and Suffering – For the physical and emotional toll caused by the accident.
  • Punitive Damages – In cases of extreme negligence, you may be entitled to punitive damages designed to punish the wrongdoer.

Connecticut uses the comparative fault rule, meaning your compensation can be reduced if you are partially at fault for the incident.
