Reports say that Ontario winters have become milder over the decades but there’s no evidence to prove that the number of slip and fall accidents on private and public property, icy sidewalks, paths, subway station steps, outdoor stairs, etc has come down.
Slip and fall accidents cause a variety of injuries, ranging from simple bruises, sprains and cuts to serious whiplash injury, spinal, head, back, tail-bone and neck trauma, broken wrist and hip bones, concussion etc which could be compounded if the victim is pregnant, elderly or person with health issues. Often, people may not fully recover from the effects of such injuries, leading to enormous physical, financial and emotional burdens on not just the victim, but also on the family.
If you or someone dear to you has sustained injuries in a slip and fall accident, contact a Carrying Place slip and fall accident lawyer without delay.
