As anyone who has lived through a cold and snowy winter probably knows, sometimes even walking down a sidewalk can be a gamble. This is particularly obvious during the winter months when snow and ice can accumulate and create hazards, but slip-and-fall injuries can happen in any season.
Slip-and-fall injuries can range from mild to severe. One of the reasons people often try so intently to avoid them is because an incredibly severe and life-threatening injury can result for a small fall. Because of this potential, there are legal regulations in place to ensure that property owners maintain a safe, hazard-free environment.
