Slip and Fall Lawyer Los Angeles
Slip and fall accidents represent one of the most significant public health hazards in Los Angeles, with consequences that hit two vulnerable categories of the population particularly hard. In persons over 65, falls cause 87% of all fractures and are the second leading cause of spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury. At the same time, in the workplace, these accidents make up a dominant share of workers’ compensation claims, costing employers an estimated $70 billion a year and forcing up to 22% of the injured to miss work for more than a month.
Bojat Law Group stands out with its unique expertise in Los Angeles municipal regulations and building codes, which define safety standards for commercial and residential properties. Our representatives regularly work with leading orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, and economists to document injuries and their long-term consequences.
Unlike many law firms that accept the first settlement offers, our in-depth investigation often uncovers additional liable parties from building managers, to maintenance contractors, and even flooring manufacturers allowing us to maximize your compensation through multiple sources of liability, often achieving results that are twice as high as the initial offers of insurance companies.

When Negligence Causes a Fall, We Hold the Guilty Accountable
Slip and fall injuries are rarely “accidents.” They’re often the direct result of:
➥ Unsafe Work Environments: Slick floors (responsible for 85% of workplace slips), unmarked hazards, or faulty scaffolding in construction zones.
➥ Elder Care Failures: Nursing homes ignoring wet floors, missing handrails, or understaffing that leaves seniors unsupervised.
➥ Property Owner Neglect: Broken sidewalks in DTLA, grocery store spills left unmarked, or dimly lit staircases in apartment complexes.
Our Los Angeles slip and fall lawyers dig deeper than the surface. We uncover maintenance records, security footage, and witness testimony to prove negligence—then demand maximum compensation.
Why Bojat Law Group Wins Where Others Fall Short
Most firms treat slip and fall cases as “quick settlements.” We treat them as battles for justice:
✔️ Workplace Fall Specialists: We’ve recovered millions for injured construction workers, truckers, and retail employees, even after denied workers’ comp claims.
✔️ Elder Advocacy Champions: Nursing homes fear our relentless approach—we’ve exposed facilities that falsified safety logs or ignored repeated hazards.
✔️ No Deadline Missed: Government claims (e.g., falls on LA County property) require action within 6 months. We file fast to protect your rights.
✔️ Zero Fees, Total Focus: You pay nothing unless we win.
Premises Liability and Duty of Care in California
In California property owners and occupiers are legally obligated to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition. The duty of care encompasses all visitors, as established in Rowland v. Christian, where the court emphasized a general duty of care irrespective of the visitor’s status.
To establish liability in a slip and fall case, the following elements must be proven:
Existence of a Hazardous Condition
A dangerous condition was present on the property.Knowledge of the Hazard
The property owner or occupier knew, or should have known, about the hazardous condition.Failure to Address the Hazard
The responsible party did not take reasonable steps to repair, remove, or warn about the danger.Causation of Injury
The hazardous condition directly caused the injury.

Your Next Steps After a Slip and Fall Injury
１. Prioritize Medical Care
Hidden injuries like concussions or hairline fractures worsen without treatment.
２. Gather Evidence
Snap photos of hazards (e.g., uneven pavement, lack of warning signs) and get contact info for witnesses.
３. Report Strategically
Workplace falls: Notify your employer in writing.
Public property falls: File a Los Angeles County claim form within 6 months via their Claims Portal
４. Call Us Before Insurers
Adjusters will lowball you. We negotiate while preparing for trial.

Frequently Asked Questions
No, it’s not necessarily too late. While immediate reporting strengthens your case, we’ve successfully represented clients who initially left the scene. Security footage, witness statements, and medical records documenting your injuries can still establish your claim. However, contact us immediately as evidence may disappear and California’s statute of limitations continues running.
Not automatically. We examine whether the warning was adequate – was it visible from your approach angle? Was it placed too far from the actual hazard? Was the floor excessively slippery despite the warning? Many property owners believe any warning is sufficient, but California law requires warnings to be reasonably effective for the specific hazard.
This initial offer likely severely undervalues your claim. Insurance companies typically make quick, low offers before you understand the full extent of your injuries or lost wages. One client initially received a $5,000 offer but, after our representation, secured a $175,000 settlement once we established ongoing back problems requiring future medical care.
Liability waivers in residential leases generally cannot excuse a landlord from their fundamental duty to maintain safe premises. California law establishes minimum standards for lighting in common areas, and courts often invalidate waivers when basic habitability or safety issues are involved. We’ve successfully challenged these waivers in numerous cases.
Beyond obvious medical bills, track transportation costs to appointments, home modifications, assistance with daily activities, canceled travel plans, and even seemingly minor expenses like bandages or over-the-counter medications. One client didn’t realize she could claim the cost of rideshare services when she couldn’t drive – an expense that totaled over $2,800 during her recovery.
Yes. Your claim is typically against the insurance policy that covered the business at the time of your accident, not the current business entity. We’ve successfully resolved numerous cases against defunct businesses by identifying their former insurance carriers and property owners. Always consult with us regardless of business status changes.

We can tell you what it’s like to be represented by Bojat Law Group after a car accident, but the best proof of our hard work are our clients’ positive testimonials.
Lauren was injured when an inexperienced truck driver suddenly veered off the road and hit her car on the highway. “In my situation”, she says, “after I had a traffic accident and told the officers on the scene ‘I don’t know what happened,’ the BoyLaw Group had accomplished what I thought was impossible.
