Common Slip and Fall Injuries in Stamford

Slip and fall accidents can lead to a wide range of injuries, some of which may require long-term medical care. Common injuries include:

Soft Tissue Injuries

Sprains, strains, and tears in muscles, tendons, or ligaments can be painful and difficult to prove, but they are common after a slip and fall.

Head Injuries

Concussions, skull fractures, or more severe brain injuries are common in falls where the victim hits their head. These injuries can have long-term effects.

Broken Bones

Fractures in the arms, legs, and spine can occur after a fall. Depending on the injury, you may require surgery, physical therapy, and extended recovery.

Spinal Cord Injuries

Falls that cause spinal cord damage can result in paralysis, requiring immediate medical care and significant long-term rehabilitation.

Cuts and Abrasions

While these might seem less severe, cuts can become infected or signal other underlying injuries, such as broken bones.

At Goff Law Group, we are prepared to fight for compensation for any type of slip and fall injury. We’re here to help you recover, no matter how complex your injury may be.

When to Pursue a Slip and Fall Claim in Stamford

Not every slip and fall accident leads to a viable legal claim. However, if a property owner’s negligence caused your injury, you may be entitled to compensation. Here’s when you should consider filing a claim:

  • The property owner was aware of a hazard and did nothing to fix it.
  • The hazard was foreseeable, and the property owner could have prevented it.
  • The property owner failed to maintain safe premises, such as failing to repair broken steps, clear ice, or fix broken lighting.

Our Stamford slip and fall attorneys are here to evaluate your case and help you understand your legal rights.

What to Do After a Slip and Fall Accident in Stamford

Immediately after a slip and fall, it’s important to take the right steps to protect your rights:

  • Report the Incident – Notify the property owner or manager about the fall as soon as it happens.
  • Seek Medical Attention – Get checked by a medical professional, even if you feel fine. Some injuries, especially soft tissue or head injuries, may not be immediately apparent.
  • Document the Scene – If possible, take photos of the dangerous condition that caused the fall, such as a wet floor or broken railing.
  • Preserve Your Evidence – Keep medical records, bills, and any relevant documentation from the incident.

Once you’ve taken these steps, reach out to Goff Law Group to begin your legal process. We’re here to provide you with the support and guidance you need.

Understanding Premises Liability Law in Stamford

Slip and fall cases often fall under premises liability law, which holds property owners responsible for ensuring their property is safe. Depending on your status as a visitor, property owners in Stamford are obligated to provide different levels of protection:

  • Invitees – Customers or business visitors. Owners must ensure these guests are safe and warn them about hazards.
  • Licensees – Social guests who are on the property with permission. Owners must avoid creating dangerous conditions and warn them about known dangers.
  • Trespassers – Owners have limited duties toward trespassers, though they cannot intentionally harm them or create a hazard they know about.

What Compensation Can You Seek in a Stamford Slip and Fall Case?

If a property owner is found responsible for your slip and fall injury, you may be able to recover compensation for various damages, including:

Medical Expenses

Costs for past and future medical care related to your injury.

Lost Wages

Compensation for income lost due to the time you need to recover from your injuries.

Pain and Suffering

For the physical pain and emotional distress caused by the accident.

Punitive Damages

If the property owner’s actions were particularly egregious, punitive damages may be awarded.

Connecticut follows a comparative fault rule, which means your compensation could be reduced if you were partially responsible for the accident. For example, if you were 30% at fault, you would receive 70% of the potential compensation.
