Under Maryland law, property owners are responsible for slip and fall injuries if they knew (or should have known) about dangerous conditions on their property but did nothing to correct the problem or warn the injured victim.

Typical causes of slip, trip, and fall injuries:

• Wet, oily, or greasy floor without proper signage
• Torn, worn, or frayed carpeting
• Inadequate lighting
• Unsafe stairways or steps, such as when the depth or height between stairs varies
• Walkway obstructions, including debris and clutter
• Poor maintenance
• Snow or ice that was not removed by the property owner

Common injuries caused by slip and falls:

• Brain injury
• Broken or fractured bones
• Spinal cord injury
• Severe bruising
• Neck injuries
• Head and shoulder trauma

When you file a slip and fall claim, your attorney can seek compensation for past and future medical bills, physical therapy, emotional pain and suffering, occupational training, and other claims.
