FREE CONSULTATION

Winter is upon us and so is winter weather. In Oklahoma, it is common to have snowstorms and ice storms. Slip and falls on ice or snow are common occurrences in the winter. Injuries resulting from a slip and fall on a snowy or icy sidewalk can be serious. These injuries are expensive to care for, especially if they are severe.

Between the medical bills and lost wages, an injury can change your life. If your slip and fall injuries were caused by negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. It’s important to contact a slip and fall attorney to see if you have a case.

What To Do If You Slip and Fall on Ice or Snow:

If an accident occurs where you slip and fall on ice or snow, what do you do after?  It is important to follow these 5 steps:

what to do if you are injured after a slip and fall on ice or snow
  1. Seek medical attention. Your health needs to be your number one priority. See a doctor promptly to document the injuries.
  2. Report the accident. It does not matter where the incident happened, report it to a manager or owner. Request a copy of the written incident report for your records.
  3. Speak to witnesses. Collect names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses for all witnesses.
  4. Take photos. With slip and falls on ice, the evidence will melt away. You need to take photos of the area where the incident happened and the surrounding areas.
  5. Preserve your shoes and clothing as they may serve as evidence later.
  6. Call an attorney. The attorneys at Carr and Carr Attorneys have dealt with slip and fall cases and have the knowledge, expertise and success record to help you obtain the compensation you deserve.
