If you slip and fall due to hazardous conditions, you may be entitled to compensation. Here are the types of damages you can recover:
1. Medical Expenses
Covers emergency care, surgeries, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatments. Keep all medical bills and records to document your expenses.
2. Lost Wages
If your injury prevents you from working, you can claim lost income and potential future earnings. Your lawyer will work with financial experts to estimate long-term losses.
3. Pain and Suffering
Non-economic damages include emotional distress and reduced quality of life. These damages can vary depending on the severity of the injury.
4. Punitive Damages
In cases of gross negligence, additional damages may be awarded to punish the at-fault party. These damages serve as a deterrent against future negligent behavior.
5. Property Damage
If any personal belongings, such as a phone, clothing, or other valuables, were damaged due to the fall, you may be entitled to compensation for repairs or replacements.
6. Long-Term Disability or Permanent Injury
Severe slip and fall injuries can lead to chronic pain or permanent disabilities. You may be eligible for long-term care costs, modifications to your home, and continued medical treatment.
7. Emotional and Psychological Impact
Falls can result in anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), especially if the incident was severe. Compensation can include therapy costs and other mental health-related expenses.
