If you’ve been injured in a slip and fall in Indiana, you may be facing pain, medical bills, missed work, and uncertainty about the future. These types of cases fall under premises liability law, which means property owners can be held responsible if they fail to maintain a safe environment. To build a strong claim, you need to show that a dangerous condition existed, that the property owner knew (or should have known) about it, and that the hazard directly caused your injury. Evidence like photos, medical records, witness statements, and incident reports can make a big difference in proving your case. Compensation depends on the severity of your injuries, ranging from soft tissue damage to serious fractures or permanent harm, but insurance companies will often try to minimize payouts or even blame you under Indiana’s comparative fault rules.
Taking the right steps after a fall—getting medical attention, reporting the incident, documenting the scene, and avoiding direct conversations with the insurance company—can protect your claim. At the Marc Lopez Law Firm, we investigate injuries, handle insurers, connect clients with medical professionals, and fight for full compensation, all with no upfront costs. Indiana law gives you only two years to file a lawsuit, so acting quickly is critical.
