  • What should I do after a slip and fall accident in Maryland?

    Taking immediate action can strengthen your case:

    1. Seek Medical Attention – Even if injuries seem minor, see a doctor.
    2. Report the Accident – Notify the property owner, manager, or landlord.
    3. Document the Scene – Take photos of the hazard that caused your fall.
    4. Collect Witness Statements – Get contact information from anyone who saw the incident.
    5. Avoid Speaking to Insurance Companies Alone – They may try to downplay your claim.
    6. Contact a Slip and Fall Lawyer Immediately – The sooner we start, the stronger your case.

  • How long do I have to file a slip and fall claim in Maryland?

    Maryland has a three-year statute of limitations for most slip and fall claims. If you don’t file within this period, you may lose your right to seek compensation. However, certain exceptions may apply, so it’s best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.

  • Can I still file a claim if I was partially at fault?

    Maryland follows strict contributory negligence laws, meaning that if you are found even 1% responsible for your fall, you may not be able to recover damages. Because of this, insurance companies often try to blame the victim to avoid paying claims. This is why having an experienced slip and fall lawyer on your side is critical.

  • How much does it cost to hire a slip and fall lawyer?

    We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless we win. There are no upfront costs, and our fees come from the settlement or verdict we recover on your behalf.
