It only takes a moment for a slip and fall accident to change your life. Slip and fall accidents are some of the most common personal injury claims in Georgia, yet their consequences can be devastating.
At T. Madden & Associates, our Georgia slip and fall lawyers understand how serious these accidents can be. If you’ve been hurt in a slip and fall incident due to unsafe conditions on someone else’s property, you deserve answers, accountability, and legal guidance.
Reach out today at 770-978-6711 and take the first step toward protecting your rights.
Many victims don’t realize that property owners have a legal responsibility to keep their premises safe. If you slipped due to a wet floor, broken handrail, uneven surface, poor lighting, or another hazard, you may have a valid premises liability claim. We’ll walk you through your rights and help determine if negligence played a role in your fall.
A slip and fall claim falls under the broader category of premises liability law. These cases occur when someone is injured because of a hazardous condition on another person’s property.
In Georgia, property owners and occupiers have a legal duty to safely maintain their premises. When they fail to do so, they may be held legally responsible for resulting injuries.
Understanding your rights is the first step toward holding negligent parties accountable. If you’ve been hurt in this kind of situation, a Georgia slip and fall lawyer from T. Madden & Associates can evaluate your legal options and guide you through the process.
Slip and fall accidents are often far more serious than they seem at first. What might seem minor can result in life-changing injuries and long-term challenges. Knowing the types of injuries associated with these incidents can help you recognize the severity of your situation and the importance of seeking proper medical and legal support.
No matter how minor a fall may seem at first, the injuries that follow can have lasting consequences on your health, finances, and quality of life. If you’ve sustained an injury in a slip and fall incident, the Georgia injury team at T. Madden & Associates can fight for your rights and the compensation you deserve.
Figuring out who is legally responsible after a slip and fall accident is the cornerstone of a successful claim. Liability doesn’t always hinge on a single person or entity. It can depend on where the accident happened, who owns or controls the property, and if negligence played a role.
Identifying the right party is important when pursuing compensation and holding the right individuals or businesses accountable. These can include:
From slippery supermarket aisles to falling over a cracked sidewalk, the person or entity that controls the premises should be held accountable if negligence is involved. At T. Madden & Associates, our Georgia slip and fall attorneys can investigate the events leading to the accident and examine the evidence to pinpoint who is responsible.

Winning a slip and fall claim in Georgia requires more than just showing you were injured. You must prove the property owner was legally at fault. That means demonstrating they knew or should have known about the hazardous condition and failed to fix it or provide adequate warning.
To build a successful case, you’ll need to establish these four key elements of negligence:
To support your claim, strong evidence is critical. We may use:
At T. Madden & Associates, we conduct a detailed investigation to gather the evidence needed to prove liability. Our experienced team works tirelessly to hold negligent property owners accountable and help you recover the compensation you deserve.
Possibly — and that’s why it’s crucial to have an experienced attorney. Georgia follows a modified comparative fault rule. This means if you’re found to be 50% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages.
Even if you’re less than 50% at fault, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. We push back against unfair blame tactics and work to ensure you get every dollar you deserve.
When you’re injured in a slip and fall accident, the impact often goes beyond physical pain, as medical bills, lost wages, and emotional stress can quickly take a toll on your life.
In Georgia, a successful slip and fall claim can help you recover compensation for these and other losses. Understanding what types of damages might be available is an important step when preparing your case to seek justice for what you have endured.
Victims of slip and fall accidents could be eligible to recover compensation for:
Every case is different, but with the help of the team at T. Madden & Associates, you can pursue the full compensation you may be entitled to.
In Georgia, you typically have two years from the date of your injury to file a slip and fall lawsuit. Waiting too long could result in lost evidence, fading memories, and a dismissed case. Don’t delay — let us help preserve your rights from day one.
Filing your claim too late means the court will likely dismiss your case, no matter how strong your evidence is.
Some exceptions could shorten or extend the filing period, depending on the circumstances. At T. Madden & Associates, we can help you understand how the statute of limitations applies to your specific case and ensure your claim is filed on time.

Yes. Georgia follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can still recover damages if you’re less than 50% at fault. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
Not always. Many slip and fall claims are settled out of court. However, we prepare every case as if it’s going to trial so we’re ready to fight for you if the insurance company doesn’t offer a fair settlement.
You may still have a case — and in most situations, the homeowner’s insurance will cover the claim, not your friend or family member personally. We’ll handle your case with care and discretion.
