Slip and Fall Injury Lawyer
Slip and Fall Injury Lawyer in PA, NJ & MD
Injured on Someone Else’s Property? We’ll Help You Get the Compensation You Deserve.
A slip and fall can turn your life upside down in seconds. One moment you’re walking through a store, a parking lot, or down a flight of stairs—and the next, you’re in pain, facing medical bills, lost wages, and uncertainty about what comes next. If you were hurt in a slip and fall accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you shouldn’t have to pay the price.
At Haggerty Silverman & Justice, we help injured people in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland get justice after serious slip and fall accidents. Property owners, landlords, and businesses have a legal duty to keep their premises safe. They also have a duty to follow building safety codes. When they fail—and someone gets hurt—we hold them accountable.
Why You Need a Slip and Fall Attorney
Businesses and property owners generally aren’t helpful after someone is injured on their property. You’ll find you have trouble getting anyone to give you helpful information or get you pointed in the right direction to file a claim with their insurance carrier. Insurance companies will do everything they can to downplay your injuries or blame you for your fall. They’re not on your side. We are.
Our team knows how to investigate slip and fall accidents, gather evidence, identify all parties involved, and build strong cases that demand full and fair compensation. We help injured people recover money for:
- Medical expenses (past and future)
- Lost wages and reduced earning ability
- Pain and suffering
- Long-term or permanent disability
You deserve more than a fast settlement. We fight to get you the money you deserve—and we don’t get paid unless we win.
Common Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall injuries often happen because someone failed to maintain a safe environment. We represent people hurt in falls caused by:
- Wet or slippery floors (without warning signs)
- Uneven sidewalks or pavement
- Broken steps or loose railings
- Poor lighting in stairwells or walkways
- Ice or snow that wasn’t cleared in a timely manner
- Spills or debris in grocery stores or restaurants (without warning signs)
- Unsafe conditions in apartment buildings, parking garages, or malls
No matter where your fall happened—a store, a workplace, a home, or public property—if negligence was involved, you may have a valid case. Don’t wait—evidence disappears quickly, and there are strict time limits (statute of limitations) for filing a claim in PA, NJ, and MD.

FAQs About Slip and Fall Claims
Q. How long do I have to file a slip and fall lawsuit?
A. In Pennsylvania and New Jersey, you typically have two years from the date of the accident. In Maryland, it’s three years. This time limit can be significantly shorter if it involves a government entity. But the sooner you start, the stronger your case.
Q. What if I was partially at fault?
A. You may still be entitled to compensation. Comparative negligence laws in PA, NJ, and MD allow injured victims to recover damages even if they were partly at fault—as long as someone else was mostly to blame.
Q. Do I need to go to court?
A. Not always. Many slip and fall cases are settled out of court. But if the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, we’re fully prepared to take cases to trial.
