Call Us NowCommon Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents
Property owners, business managers, and tenants have a legal responsibility to maintain safe conditions for visitors. When they fail to correct hazards or provide warnings, people can get hurt.
Some of the most common causes of slip and fall accidents include the following:
- Wet floors or spills that are not promptly cleaned
- Uneven flooring, cracks in pavement, or loose tiles
- Broken or missing handrails on stairs
- Poor lighting in hallways, stairwells, or entryways
- Debris, clutter, or obstacles in walkways
- Loose carpets, rugs, or mats that create tripping hazards
- Failure to remove snow, ice, or standing water
Under Idaho’s premises liability laws, property owners can be held responsible for injuries that occur because of unsafe conditions. These cases are often complex, requiring a thorough investigation to prove fault. That is where we come in.
Your Compensation Following a Slip and Fall in Twin Falls
If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident, you may be entitled to compensation for both economic and non-economic damages. Our goal is to help clients pursue full and fair compensation for the harm they have experienced.

Schedule a Free ConsultationHow We Handle Slip and Fall Cases
Slip and fall cases fall under premises liability law. In these cases, we must prove the following conditions:
- A hazardous condition existed on the property
- The property owner, manager, or responsible party knew or should have known about the hazard
- The hazard was not corrected or clearly marked with warnings
- The hazard directly caused your injuries
Proving that the owner or manager was aware of the hazardous condition and failed to act can be very difficult. However, we gather evidence, identify liable parties, and work to hold them accountable for creating unsafe environments.
At Sargent Law Firm Injury Lawyers, our attorneys work together with a common goal: helping you obtain a fair settlement. We take immediate action after you sign with us, contacting the insurance companies and developing a personalized legal strategy for your case. We will:
- Investigate the accident scene and hazardous conditions
- Gather photographs, video footage, and witness statements
- Obtain maintenance records and incident reports
- Communicate directly with insurance companies on your behalf
- Determine the value of your damages
- Prepare legal documents, claims, and court filings
- Represent you during negotiations, mediations, or trial
We understand that no two slip-and-fall cases are exactly alike. Our approach focuses on understanding the unique circumstances of each client’s situation and developing a plan to pursue accountability and compensation.
