Ice-Related Injury
Cases We Handle

We specialize exclusively in slip and fall on ice cases — giving you the focused expertise your case demands.

Sidewalk ice

Sidewalk Slip & Fall

Unsalted or unplowed sidewalks outside businesses and residential properties are a leading cause of winter injuries.

Parking lot ice

Parking Lot Injuries

Property owners must maintain safe parking areas. Black ice in lots causes severe fractures and head injuries.

Icy stairs

Icy Staircase Falls

Unmaintained stairs and entryways with accumulated ice create extreme danger for visitors and tenants.

Store entrance

Commercial Property

Stores, restaurants, and malls have the highest duty of care. Failed snow removal means they're liable.

Apartment complex

Residential Property

Landlords are legally required to clear ice from walkways, ramps, and common areas for tenants and guests.

Medical injury

Severe Injury Claims

Fractures, traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage — we fight for maximum compensation on serious injury cases.

Hear From Our Clients

"I slipped on ice outside my apartment and broke my wrist. The property manager blamed the weather. Donovan's team proved they had 48 hours to salt and didn't. I got $225,000 and never paid a dime upfront."

FAQ

Common Questions

It depends on local ordinances. In many cities, adjacent property owners (businesses or homeowners) are legally responsible for clearing ice from sidewalks in front of their property. In other areas, the municipality may be liable. We investigate every angle to identify all responsible parties.

The statute of limitations varies by state — typically 2 to 3 years for personal injury. However, evidence disappears fast: ice melts, surveillance footage gets overwritten, and witnesses forget. We recommend contacting us as soon as possible, ideally within days of your fall.

Most states follow comparative or contributory negligence rules. Even if you were partially at fault (e.g., not wearing proper footwear), you may still recover a reduced portion of your damages. Don't assume you have no case — let us evaluate it for free.

It depends on: severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and the strength of liability evidence. Minor injury cases may settle for $10K–$50K, while severe injury cases involving surgery or permanent disability can reach hundreds of thousands or even millions. We give you an honest assessment.

1) Seek medical attention immediately — even if you feel okay. 2) Take photos of the ice/hazard and your injuries. 3) Get contact info from any witnesses. 4) Report the incident to the property owner or manager. 5) Don't give a recorded statement to any insurance company. 6) Call us for a free consultation.

Insurance companies profit by paying you as little as possible — or nothing. Studies show injured people who hire attorneys recover 3-4x more than those who don't. And with our contingency fee, you pay nothing unless we win. There's no financial risk to getting experienced legal help.
