Based on our extensive experience, our attorneys know that slips and falls can be costly: you are entitled to remuneration if another party is at-fault. Read on to learn about the damages you can claim if you have experienced a serious slip and fall accident.

You may be eligible for the following sorts of financial compensation depending on your injuries and the circumstances of your accident:

• Medical bills incurred as a result of the accident in the past, present, and future
• Surgery expenditures
• Therapy treatments
• Medication costs for both over-the-counter and prescription drugs
• Lost income and future lost wages
• Medical devices like wheelchairs, walkers, crutches, or knee scooters
• The expense of hiring a homecare provider
• Other miscellaneous out-of-pocket expenses directly related to the accident

If you suffered a traumatic injury from a slip and fall, you're probably dealing with life-altering changes that generate emotional stress. You may also be entitled to non-economic compensation in specific instances. Such damages include:

• Permanent disability
• Loss of Enjoyment
• Loss of Consortium
• Emotional distress and anguish

In a slip and fall lawsuit, a plaintiff can be determined to bear a specific proportion of fault for their accident under Texas' modified comparative responsibility law. In this case, their damages will be lowered correspondingly.

In this situation, a plaintiff who is found to be 25% at fault, for example, would have their total monetary amount of damages reduced by 25%. If you're judged to be at fault for more than 50% of your slip and fall in Texas, you won't be able to recover any compensation from the property owner or anybody else.

Individuals seeking compensation for personal injury accidents frequently believe they will only be reimbursed for medical expenditures incurred as a result of the accident. Although any respectable attorney's first goal is to ensure that their client's medical needs are met, the truth is that a highly experienced expert will fight for the highest possible reimbursement for most, if not all, damages.
