Slip And Fall Injury Lawyer

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 1 million Americans suffer a trip, slip, or fall injury each year. Slip-and-fall Injuries are common, but when accidents occur on someone else’s property as a result of the property owner’s negligence, victims may qualify to receive compensation for damages suffered.

If you or someone close to you has suffered from a slip/trip and fall accident in Houston on someone else’s property, you may be able to file a successful injury claim. It is an advisable first step to hire an experienced and knowledgeable slip-and-fall injury lawyer to guide you through the process. Jorge L. Gomez, board certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, has more than 15 years’ experience and thousands of cases behind him to ensure your rights are being protected.

However, with the law so favorably written to protect the premises owner, this does not always occur. Thus, the best way to even out the playing field is to hire a skilled Houston slip-and-fall injury lawyer experienced in these types of cases
