Know Your Legal Rights in a
Slip & Fall Situation
T
By Andrew C. Demos, Esq.
rip and fall claims due to raised concrete or uneven flooring is a specific area of personal injury law that must be treated carefully. There are specific statutes, codes, and ordinances that should be considered within the theory of liability. Often, the adjacent landowner to a sidewalk is jointly and severally liable for injuries caused by a dangerous condition. If for example a slab of concrete has a root from a tree underneath it and it raises up by one half of an inch (1/2”) or more compared with the adjacent slab, a person jogging may come into contact with the raised concrete and become airborne landing with resulting injuries. The injuries could be to the toe, foot, arm, neck, back, or other areas. If
