Winter in Connecticut has icy sidewalks, parking lots, stairs, and entryways become more than just an inconvenience—they pose a serious slip and fall accident risk. When property owners fail to properly clear snow and ice, the consequences can be devastating, leading to severe injuries that require medical attention, time off work, and costly expenses.
If you or a loved one has been injured due to unsafe conditions on someone else’s property, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries, medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. At Ventura Law, our experienced Connecticut personal injury lawyers fight for victims of negligence, ensuring they receive the financial recovery they deserve.
Who is Responsible for Slip and Fall Accidents?
Under Connecticut law, property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe premises, including removing snow and ice in a timely manner. When they fail to address hazardous conditions, they can be held liable for injuries that occur on their property.
You may have a premises liability claim if you were injured due to unsafe conditions at:
- Private Residences (including driveways, walkways, or steps)
- Condo or Apartment Complexes (where landlords and property managers are responsible for maintenance)
- Commercial Properties (such as stores, restaurants, parking lots, and office buildings)
If a property owner knew—or should have known—about the dangerous condition but failed to take action, you may be eligible to recover damages.
Common Injuries from Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall accidents on icy surfaces can lead to severe injuries, including:
- Broken bones (fractured wrists, ankles, or hips)
- Head injuries (concussions or traumatic brain injuries)
- Back and spinal cord injuries
- Soft tissue injuries (sprains, strains, or torn ligaments)
These injuries often require expensive medical treatments, ongoing therapy, and time away from work. Our team at Ventura Law is here to make sure you’re compensated for these unexpected burdens.
