Fighting For Slip and Fall Accident Victims in Colorado

Denver’s natural beauty, trendy art, entertainment, and outdoor festivals and activities are just a few attractions that draw people to the area.

Our slip and fall attorneys in Denver have resolved many slip and fall claims, and we understand Colorado’s complex legal issues. We’ve devoted our time, effort, and resources to developing winning strategies while our clients focus on healing.

Slip and Fall Accident Statistics 

A slip and fall is the common term for an incident where someone slips, trips, or falls on someone else’s property. Falls are often harmless, but sometimes they’re deadly. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s national fall statistics are eye-opening.

  • Annually, over 800,000 Americans receive emergency treatment for falls.
  • 1 out of 5 falls causes fractures or head injuries.
  • Falls are the leading cause of traumatic brain injuries.
  • Falls cause over 95 percent of hip fractures.

Slip and falls occur in Denver’s commercial buildings, restaurants, public spaces, and private residential properties. Falls can cause simple bumps, bruises, and embarrassment, but often they’re far more harmful. Falls from an elevation, on steps, or on hard pavement cause serious, catastrophic injuries. Injured victims must manage medical bills, lost wages, disabilities, and long-term financial and personal losses.

$75M Recovered for Our Clients

At the Tenge Law Firm LLC, our goal is to achieve the best possible result for our clients as soon as possible. Each case and each client is different, so we work directly with clients to meet their needs for medical care and personal situations. We have enjoyed great success, with exceedingly high client satisfaction, using this approach.

About Our Case Results

Our Denver slip and fall attorneys deliver an unmatched commitment to our clients. When possible, we’ve negotiated our clients’ settlements with responsible property owners and their insurance companies. We’ve resolved cases through Alternative Dispute Resolution such as mediation and arbitration. Wherever possible, we have resolved our clients’ cases informally. Still, we thoroughly prepare each claim so our evidence is always ready if a trial becomes our only option.

We understand that each slip and fall case is unique. We can’t guarantee a specific outcome for any particular case, but our past case results demonstrate our successful track record:

  • $675,000 – Retail premises slip and fall: A hazard caused our older client’s fall. Her fractured hip required surgery and inpatient care for six weeks. Despite the retailer’s initial liability denial, we eventually settled the case.
  • $1,100,000 – Construction site accident: When a subcontractor created a construction site hazard after relocating materials, our client sustained injuries. Our client developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. Originally, the subcontractor refused to accept responsibility. Eventually, we settled three months before the trial.
  • $1,350,000 – Auto accident: A vehicle struck our client head-on. The severe impact injured her ankle, foot, and leg, requiring surgical repairs. We settled for the limits of three policies under which the defendant had liability coverage.

Common Causes of Slip & Fall Accidents 

Many different types of dangerous premises situations cause slip and fall accidents. Property owners overlook or ignore hazardous conditions inside buildings, retail stores, private residences, and outside on the property’s grounds and paved areas. A property owner is negligent when they knew or should have known an adverse condition existed but failed to correct it. Property owners are also negligent if they knew of a hazard but did not warn about the danger. Examples include:

  • Cracked or uneven stairways
  • Poorly maintained, lit, or unmarked stairways
  • Rippled or damaged carpet
  • Wet, poorly maintained, or unclean floors
  • Unbalanced flooring
  • Poorly maintained elevators and escalators
  • Unsafe retail merchandise displays
  • Defective handrails
  • Damaged sidewalks and pavement
  • Tripping hazards
  • Potholes in parking lots and driveways
  • Uneven or damaged sidewalks
  • Inadequate snow and ice removal
  • Inadequate hazard warnings

Understanding the Physical, Emotional, & Financial Impacts

Slip, trip, and fall accidents cause minor wounds but can also lead to life-altering, catastrophic injuries. The National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center’s 10-year data documents spinal cord injury trends through 2017. Nationally, their system tracked falls as the causative factor in 30.67 percent of all spinal cord injuries. National Data and Statistical Center research shows that falls caused 27 percent of all traumatic brain injuries. They’re also one of Construction’s Fatal Four accident risks, and consistently the number one construction site fatality event.

In addition to the severe physical impacts, slip and fall injuries often result in significant emotional and financial stress. Victims may experience anxiety, depression, or a diminished quality of life, which can complicate recovery. Legal and insurance processes add another layer of stress, especially when victims face resistance from property owners or insurers. Understanding the full spectrum of impacts is important in securing the comprehensive medical and legal support needed for recovery. A slip and fall attorney in Denver can help navigate these complexities and advocate for fair compensation.

 

The costs incurred while recovering leave injured people with heavy physical and financial burdens. The most seriously injured victims require extensive and costly medical treatment and rehabilitation. Even with health insurance coverage, co-pays, deductibles, and uncovered expenses add up quickly.

When your injuries cause disability, you lose wages during your recovery. If your disabilities are permanent, your economic losses continue indefinitely. When you lose your primary breadwinner in a serious or catastrophic slip and fall accident, it changes your family’s emotional and financial security forever.
