Slip and Fall Accidents
Injured on Someone Else’s Property? We’re Here to Help.
A sudden fall can leave you dealing with more than just physical pain. Medical bills, time away from work, and the stress of recovery can quickly pile up. If you slipped and fell on someone else’s property—whether at a business, apartment complex, or even a private residence—you may have the right to seek compensation.
At Brian Williams Law, we help everyday Oklahomans understand their rights and take action after a serious injury. We’ve spent decades standing up for people who were hurt because someone else failed to take safety seriously. If a property owner didn’t fix or warn you about a hazard, we’re here to hold them accountable.
What You Can Recover in a Slip-and-Fall Case
A successful claim can help cover both the financial and emotional impact of your accident, including:
Medical costs
From the emergency room visit to follow-up care or long-term treatment, we’ll work to recover every dollar related to your injury.
Lost income
If your injuries kept you from working, we’ll seek compensation for your missed wages. If you can’t return to the same job or earn what you once did, we can also pursue damages for lost future income.
Pain and suffering
Slip-and-fall injuries can change your life. Whether you’re living with chronic pain, limited mobility, or emotional distress, we’ll fight for the compensation you deserve.
Damaged property
If personal items like your phone, watch, or glasses were damaged in the fall, those losses can be included in your claim.
Proving a Slip-and-Fall Claim in Oklahoma
To win a slip-and-fall case, you’ll need to show that the property owner failed in their legal duty to keep the premises reasonably safe. That could mean they:
-
Ignored a spill or tripping hazard
-
Didn’t warn visitors about dangerous conditions
-
Failed to fix a known issue in a timely manner
Oklahoma law says that property owners are responsible for protecting guests, customers, and others lawfully on their premises. They aren’t usually responsible for injuries to trespassers, but there are exceptions—especially when children are involved and a known hazard like an unfenced pool is present.
Every case is different. We’ll take the time to investigate what happened, gather evidence, and build a clear picture of liability so your claim stands on solid ground.
Why It’s Smart to Act Quickly
In Oklahoma, you generally have two years from the date of your fall to file a personal injury claim. That might sound like a long time, but acting early helps preserve evidence, secure witness statements, and give your attorney time to build a strong case.
The sooner you reach out, the better your chances of a full recovery—both physically and financially.
