Fight for the Compensation You Deserve

Slip, Trip, & Fall Accidents

A simple slip, trip, or fall can change your life in an instant — causing serious injuries like broken bones, head trauma, spinal damage, and more. If your fall was caused by a dangerous property condition, you have the right to demand compensation — and Mobilio Wood is here to make sure you get it.

Slip, trip, or fall accidents can happen anywhere—on a sidewalk, in a grocery store, at work, or in a parking lot—and often result in serious injuries that disrupt your life. You park your car in a shopping center parking lot and start walking toward the store. Or maybe you are just walking up the sidewalk to a friend’s house. Suddenly your foot catches on something, a patch of ice, perhaps a raised piece of sidewalk. You slip/trip and are hurt. You make a claim to the property owner’s insurance company. They tell you that you were at fault, that you should have watched where you were going. Your claim is denied but the pain continues for weeks, maybe months.

Someone else’s failure to maintain their property free of ice and snow or to keep their property free of tripping hazards is not your fault. Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises safe. When they fail — by leaving spills unattended, failing to fix broken walkways, or ignoring obvious hazards — they can and should be held accountable.

At Mobilio Wood we aggressively pursue compensation for clients injured in:

  • Slip and falls on wet floors, icy sidewalks, or slick surfaces
  • Trip and falls over uneven pavement, broken stairs, loose mats, or poor lighting
  • Falls caused by building code violations and safety hazards
  • Injuries from hidden dangers the property owner failed to correct or warn about
  • Falls in stores, restaurants, apartment complexes, parking lots, and private homes
  • Falls caused by poor lighting, lack of signage, or unmarked hazards
  • Negligent security leading to assaults, robberies, or violent attacks
  • Dog bites and animal attacks due to reckless owners
  • Swimming pool accidents from lack of fencing or supervision
  • Elevator and escalator accidents
  • Injuries from falling objects or collapsing structures

We understand the tactics insurance companies use to deny or minimize claims — and we don’t back down. Our experienced slip and fall attorneys move fast to secure evidence, interview witnesses, and build a powerful case to maximize your recovery.

We fight to recover compensation for:

  • Emergency room and hospital bills
  • Physical therapy and rehabilitation
  • Lost wages and lost earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent injuries or disabilities
  • Future medical expenses

At Mobilio Wood, we understand the complexities of premises liability law and are committed to holding negligent property owners accountable. Whether your fall was caused by wet floors, uneven pavement, poor lighting, or lack of proper warning signs, our legal team will thoroughly investigate your case and fight to protect your rights.

We offer free consultations and work on a contingency fee basis—you don’t pay unless we win your case. Let us help you recover the compensation you deserve while you focus on healing.

Slip, Trip, or Fall Accident FAQs

To win a slip, trip, or fall claim, generally you must prove that the property owner or manager knew — or should have known — about the dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn you. Evidence like incident reports, surveillance footage, photos of the hazard, and witness statements are critical. At Mobilio Wood we move fast to secure the proof you need.

Every case is different. Settlements can range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands — even higher for serious injuries like traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, or permanent disabilities. Factors like medical costs, lost income, and long-term impact all play a role. We fight for every dollar you deserve.

Yes!  All major credit cards are accepted.

Common causes include wet floors, icy sidewalks, broken stairs, poor lighting, uneven pavement, loose rugs, cluttered walkways, and failure to warn about hazards. No matter the cause, if negligence played a role, you may be entitled to significant compensation.
