A slip and fall accident can happen in seconds—but the consequences can last for years. From broken bones to long-term chronic pain, these injuries often disrupt your health, work, and financial stability. If your fall happened because a property owner failed to keep their premises safe, you may be entitled to compensation.
At GotInjured.ca, our Ontario slip and fall lawyers help injury victims hold negligent parties accountable. You pay nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we recover compensation for you.
Slip and fall accidents are often underestimated, but they are one of the leading causes of serious injuries in Ontario. Many victims require ongoing medical treatment, rehabilitation, and time away from work. In more severe cases, a slip and fall can result in permanent disability or long-term loss of independence.
Beyond the physical pain, victims frequently experience emotional stress, anxiety, and financial pressure. Our role is to reduce that burden and fight for the compensation you need to move forward.
Slip and fall accidents usually occur because a property owner or occupier failed to take reasonable steps to keep the area safe. Common causes include:
Wet or freshly cleaned floors without warning signs
Ice, snow, or slush left uncleared
Uneven sidewalks, loose tiles, or cracked flooring
Poor lighting in stairwells, hallways, or parking areas
Clutter, debris, or obstacles in walkways
Lack of regular property maintenance
When these hazards are ignored, serious injuries can happen.
Slip and fall accidents can cause a wide range of injuries, including:
Broken bones: Fractures to wrists, ankles, arms, hips, or ribs
Head and brain injuries: Concussions and traumatic brain injuries
Spinal and nerve damage: Chronic pain, mobility issues, or paralysis
Soft tissue injuries: Sprains, strains, and torn ligaments
Chronic pain: Ongoing discomfort affecting daily life and sleep
Even injuries that seem minor at first can worsen over time.
Depending on where the accident occurred, responsibility may fall on:
Commercial property owners and businesses
Landlords and property management companies
Retail stores, restaurants, and office buildings
Municipalities (subject to strict notice deadlines)
