Denver Slip and Fall Injuries

Denver Slip and Fall Attorneys

Representing Clients in Serious Accident Cases

Denver’s natural beauty and adventure, trendy art and entertainment, and outdoor festivals and fun are just a few of the attractions that draw people to the area. Unfortunately, as our city transitions into a crowded metropolis, safety becomes a growing concern. The building renovations, new construction, and sprawling expansions that accommodate Denver’s growth sometimes contribute to slip and fall accidents and serious or catastrophic injuries.

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 they’re sometimes 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 traumatic brain injury-causing event.
  • 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 certainly cause simple bumps, bruises, and embarrassment, but often they’re far more harmful. Falls from an elevation, on steps, or on a hard pavement cause serious, catastrophic, and sometimes fatal injuries. Injured victims must manage medical bills, lost wages, disabilities, and long-term financial and personal losses.

At Tenge Law Firm, LLC, our Denver Slip and Fall Lawyers believe that if a negligent premises condition causes your fall, the property owner or manager should pay your damages. Our lawyers have resolved many slip and fall cases, 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.

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 case 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.

Negligent Conditions that Can Cause Slip and 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 he 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
  • Reviews

What Are Common Slip and Fall Injuries?

Slip, trip, and fall accidents cause minor wounds, but they can also cause 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.

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.
