From First Contact to Resolution
The firm’s approach to resolving property injury cases involves several key steps:
1. Free Consultation
We start with a no-cost, confidential review of your case. Tell us what happened, and our experienced Los Angeles personal injury lawyers will quickly determine if a property owner’s, landlord’s, or manager’s negligence caused your injury.
2. Evidence Collection
We handle everything: gathering maintenance records, repair requests, photos of the dangerous condition, medical bills, incident reports, and witness statements to build an ironclad case proving negligence and liability.
3. Negotiation
Armed with strong evidence, we negotiate aggressively with the property owner, management company, insurer, and all responsible parties to secure a fair settlement that covers your medical bills, lost wages, pain, and suffering.
4. Litigation
If they refuse to offer a fair amount, our trial-tested property injury lawyers are fully prepared to file suit and fight for you in Los Angeles County court. We’ve taken on the biggest property owners and won.
No upfront fees. No hidden costs. You only pay if we win your case.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do after a slip and fall accident?
Seek medical attention immediately, document the scene with photos, report the incident to the property owner or manager in writing, gather witness information, and contact an attorney as soon as possible. Preserving evidence is critical in slip and fall cases.
Can I sue a property owner for a slip and fall injury?
Yes. If a property owner knew about a dangerous condition — such as a wet floor, broken stair, poor lighting, or uneven surface — and failed to fix it, you may have a premises liability claim for your injuries. California law requires property owners to maintain safe conditions for all visitors.
What types of injuries are common in slip and fall accidents?
Common injuries include broken bones, head injuries, traumatic brain injuries, back and spinal cord injuries, hip fractures, and soft tissue injuries. Elderly tenants are especially vulnerable to serious injuries from falls.
How long do I have to file a slip and fall claim in California?
Generally two years from the date of injury. Claims against government entities may have a six-month deadline. Contact an attorney promptly to preserve evidence and protect your rights.
What compensation can I recover for a slip and fall injury?
You may be able to recover for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, long-term disability, and emotional distress. The amount depends on the severity of your injuries and the circumstances of the accident.
