As fall brings busier foot traffic to stores, restaurants, and public spaces, Burnett Law Office is reminding Arizona residents to stay alert for slip-and-fall hazards-and to understand their legal rights if an accident occurs.

Property owners and business operators have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions for visitors, and when they fail to do so, injury victims may be entitled to compensation.

Slip-and-fall incidents can happen anywhere-on wet floors, uneven sidewalks, or poorly lit stairways. Even seemingly minor accidents can lead to serious injuries such as fractures, sprains, or head trauma. Burnett Law Office emphasizes the importance of documenting the scene immediately and seeking prompt medical attention, as both are critical in protecting a victim's health and legal claim.

Key steps to take after a slip-and-fall accident include:. Report the incident to the property owner or manager as soon as it occurs.. Document the scene with photos or videos of the hazard and surroundings.. Gather witness contact information for anyone who saw the fall.. Seek medical attention right away to assess injuries and establish a record of care.. Contact a qualified personal injury attorney to discuss your legal options and protect your rights.
