However, not every slip and fall accident warrants a legal claim against the property owner. Understanding whether you have a valid claim requires knowing the law. Our slip and fall lawyers in California can investigate your case and perform a thorough analysis to help you determine the viability of your claim and get compensation for your damages.
Whether your slip and fall accident happened at home, work, a shopping mall, or a parking lot, you may be entitled to compensation.

In California, the law of comparative negligence applies to slip and fall cases. This means even if you share some of the blame for your accident, you may still be eligible for partial compensation.
The amount of compensation you receive will depend on the percentage of fault assigned to you. For example, if you are found to be 20% responsible for the accident, you could still receive 80% of the damages you incur.
While most California personal injury cases resolve within 9-12 months, this is a general estimate. Simpler cases with clear liability and minor injuries tend to settle faster than complex cases with disputed liability or severe injuries.
The quality and availability of evidence, such as witness testimonies, photos, and medical records, can lead to delays. The willingness of both parties to cooperate and reach a fair settlement affects the time frame as well. Backlogged court calendars can delay hearing dates, prolonging the timeline.
These delays can understandably cause additional emotional strain for victims. Therefore, it’s a good idea to consult with a fall and slip attorney in California to handle your case and provide an expected timeline.
