of severity; and depending upon the injuries
sustained, the types of medical treatment, physical

Property owners, business establishments, and homeowners
have a lawful duty to provide a safe environment for

bones, brain and spinal cord injuries, to paralysis, or even death.
The National
Center for Injury Prevention and Control estimates that approximately 8
million people are injured in a slip and fall accident or
incident each year in the United States.
