Fort Frances Slip And Fall Lawyer


Have you recently been injured in a slip and fall accident on someone else’s property? If so, you might already have noticed just how great an economic impact your injuries have had on your overall quality of life.

Many people find it difficult to believe that injuries in slips and falls could cause accident victims to deal with tremendous physical pains, overwhelming emotional difficulties, and unmanageable financial obligations. But slip and fall accidents caused by even the most innocent-seeming, commonplace maintenance issue can have lifelong effects on injured accident victims. They can even lead to fatalities. 

Recovering from severe injuries can be a long, challenging, and socially isolating journey. It is no wonder that seriously injured victims of slip and fall accidents often develop additional maladies in the form of debilitating mental health issues. Furthermore, people who have been injured in a slip and fall accident are often forced to pay exorbitant costs related to their injuries and medical care. The damages incurred by injured slip and fall accident victims often include:

  • Medical expenses
  • Attendant care 
  • Physiotherapy 
  • Mobility aids, assistive medical equipment
  • Prescriptions
  • Home modifications to accommodate newly acquired disabilities 
  • Ambulance services
  • Mileage expenses to and from medical appointments
  • Housekeeping services
  • And more 

The economic burden of injuries can be even greater if the accident victim’s newly acquired medical condition makes it impossible for them to carry out the duties of their jobs. If a person is injured in a slip and fall accident and can no longer continue earning the wages to which they had become accustomed as a result, they could struggle to continue supporting themselves and their families. Depending on the severity of their injuries and the length of time it takes to recover from them, survivors of slips and falls could suffer from a significantly reduced future earning capacity should their physical condition continue to impede their ability to work in their chosen profession. An injured slip and fall accident victim’s physical, emotional, and financial well-being could be jeopardized in an instant, all because of someone else’s negligence.

In accordance with the province’s Occupiers’ Liability Act, people or entities who own and/or occupy commercial or residential properties are required to take the safety of others into consideration. That means, the law requires them to regularly inspect their premises, remain vigilant about addressing safety issues, and take proactive steps to help reduce the risk of injuries on-site. Failure to take appropriate measures to address hazardous maintenance issues could be considered negligence. 

Therefore, if you were injured on someone else’s property, you might be entitled to compensation. If a property owner/occupier’s negligence led to an accident in which you sustained compensable injuries, you might be eligible to recover damages for costs you have incurred as a result.
