Mobile Slip & Fall Injury Lawyers: Get the Compensation You Deserve
Mobile Attorneys Advocating for Slip and Fall Accident Victims
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), at least 1 in 4 adults report falling accidents each year, meaning that there are at least 30 million falls annually. Most of these falls only result in minor bumps and bruises, but at least 38% of all falling incidents will result in severe injuries, especially for older adults. Because falling poses such a serious risk to public safety, it’s critical for property owners to do everything in their power to prevent a “slip and fall accident” at their establishment.
Unfortunately, many property owners fail in this basic responsibility to the public. While not every falling accident will enable you to bring a premises liability claim against a property owner, our experienced Mobile attorneys at Cunningham Bounds can help you determine if you are eligible for compensation after a slip and fall accident. As award-winning attorneys committed to serving the people of Alabama, we’re passionate about helping injury victims recover from their losses related to negligence.

WHAT CAUSES SLIP AND FALL ACCIDENTS?
Whether you trip over an uneven sidewalk curb or slip on a wet floor, falling accidents can have life-altering consequences. Under Alabama law, property owners have a “duty of care” to those who visit their property, although this duty of care varies depending on the visitor’s status. When you’re trespassing on a property, for example, you only have the right to expect that you will not be physically attacked by the owner. However, if you’re visiting an open grocery store intending to buy groceries, you will be classified as an “invitee” and can expect the highest level of care from a property owner.
Common Hazards Leading to Slip and Fall Claims:
- Wet floors
- Defective or loose stairs
- Missing guardrails
- Building code violations
- Spilled merchandise
- Poorly-marked curbs and steps
- Lack of proper lighting
- Oily or slick surfaces
- Exposed nails or hardware in the flooring
