Slip and Fall Lawyer - Snow Accident in NJ and PA

Slip and Fall on Snow Accident Lawyer in NJ
Trying to get around in the winter months in New Jersey and Pennsylvania can be very difficult. If you fell on snow, a Slip and Fall Lawyer can help you. The winters lately have been very bad, bringing snow every other week. It makes it hard to walk anywhere, even if you have snow boots on. As you can imagine, it doesn't matter how careful you are, you still slip and slide on the snow. Slipping and falling due to snow is one of the top types of accidents reported in the winter. It affects people of every age. Some people recover quickly, while others end up with fractured bones and lengthy hospital stays.

At the end of the day, the property owner had a duty to remove the snow to prevent you from falling.
The Rubinstein Law Firm, LLC New Jersey slip and fall on snow accident attorneys help individuals and their families who have been injured in all types of fall down accidents.

Potential snow covered surfaces

  • steps
  • sidewalk
  • street
  • parking lot
  • school
  • library
  • supermarket
  • porch
  • apartment building
  • vacation property
  • church
  • store walkway

Elements that must be proven

To establish a case of negligence when you fall on snow, you must prove:
  1. the owner had a duty to keep the area free of snow
  2. the owner breached that duty and did not keep the area free of snow
  3. the snow caused you to fall
  4. you sustained injuries because of falling on snow

Commercial versus residential property

A business owner has a duty of reasonable care owed to its "invitees" to provide a safe environment. The duty of care requires a business owner to discover and eliminate dangerous conditions on the property and keep it safe. Just because you fell does not mean that the business owner did something wrong. Maybe they cleared the snow and it melted and froze again. There are many steps to handling a slip and fall on snow case that an experienced attorney will know.

Alternatively, if you fell on residential property, New Jersey law does not impose a duty on a homeowner to maintain the public sidewalk in front of their home in a safe condition.
