How 1-800-HURT-511 can help after your slip and fall accident!

Slip and fall accidents in New York typically occur due to unsafe or dangerous conditions on a public or private property and often result from negligence by the premises owner. Slip and falls can and do happen for a variety of reasons, but often, there is some amount of negligence involved. Slip and fall accidents can be very dangerous, especially in congested boroughs like Brooklyn or Queens, and can cause serious injuries and a lifetime of physical, mental and emotional stress. Expert personal injury attorneys at 1-800-HURT511 ensure our clients receive fair compensation in these instances.

But what makes slip and fall accidents so dangerous? From the Slip, Trip and Fall Experts at NFSI, here are 6 facts that highlight why slip and fall accidents are so dangerous:

  • More than one million people go to the emergency room each year for slip and fall accidents. Every year, over one million people are hospitalized due to a slip and fall accident. Over the course of a year, that comes out to 2,000 hospitalizations a day.
  • Half of all accidental deaths in the home are caused by a fall. Even though slip and fall accidents are often the most serious for older adults, they’re a leading cause of injury for all age groups.
  • About one-third of adults over 65 fall each year. Unfortunately, the fact is, the older we get, the more likely falls are to happen, and the more serious a fall injury is likely to be. In fact, with age your likelihood of falling increases and you are more likely to have a more serious injury as a result of your accident. Moreover, close to 60% of nursing home residents fall every year.

SLIP AND FALLS ARE A LEADING CAUSE OF INJURY ACROSS ALL AGE GROUPS. Slip and falls remain the most common way non-fatal injuries occur for every age group except for people between the ages of 10 and 24, where it is the second leading cause of such injuries.

  • Falls are the leading cause of brain injury. The primary cause of brain injuries is falling. A brain injury can be devastating because the victim may not even realize the extent of their injuries. A brain injury can have lasting effects on everyone close to or associated with a victim.
  • Falls are the most common cause of hip fractures. Falls are responsible for at least 95 percent of hip fractures. These types of injuries often require expensive surgery and painful rehabilitation. A hip fracture can change your life dramatically. If you or a loved one is the victim of a hip fracture as a result of a slip and fall, contact us right away.
  • Slip and Falls are the leading cause of work injuries. Slips and falls are the main cause of worker’s compensation claims and are the leading cause of occupational injury for people aged 55 years and older.

I was an UBER passenger and the car got rear-ended by a utility van. I called 1-800-HURT-511 since a friend dealt with them before and I was glad I did. My attorney was extremely professional and aggressive when necessary. He was transparent from the start and didn’t complicate things unnecessarily.

Serious team effort from the entire staff to get my work injury case resolved quickly. They built a strong case and kept me in the loop for the duration. This team also delivered on two previous occasions and did it in a very cost-effective way. A faithful customer for life thank you!

I highly recommend HURT-511! When the insurance companies turned me away after a scary scooter accident that nearly killed me, a lawyer at HURT-511 stayed and fought for me and recovered the entire policy! Their staff is well-informed and always available to answer my questions. They treated me like one of their own and I made the right decision to stick with them. Thank you so much!
