Slip And Fall Accident Evidence

What Evidence Do I Need To Keep From A Slip And Fall Accident?

A slip and fall accident can result in traumatic injuries that may result in permanent disabilities. Some slip and fall accidents result in substantial damages including lost wages, medical bills, and physical pain. However, you must prove that the property owner was negligent in either causing your fall or allowing a hazardous condition to remain that caused your fall.

Gathering Evidence in a Slip and Fall Case

Your attorney will identify and gather evidence to use as he builds a case against the property owner. However, there are some pieces of evidence that you can preserve to help your attorney as he builds a case for damages in your slip and fall case.

• Your Clothing

It is always wise to provide these to your attorney to cover all of your bases, especially if you have out-of-pocket medical costs for over-the-counter medications and/or equipment.
• Recovery Journal – Part of the compensation you may be entitled to receive is non-economic. Non-economic damages include physical pain, emotional suffering, and mental anguish. Because these damages are not easy to quantify, it helps to have a detailed narrative of how your injuries impacted your daily life and your relationship with others. You should note your pain level, your emotional state, and activities you are unable to do because of your injuries.
