Delaware County Slip and Fall Accident Attorney
A slip and fall can happen in seconds, but its consequences can last for months—or even years. From broken bones to spinal cord injuries, these accidents often result in pain, lost income, and overwhelming medical bills. When negligent property owners fail to maintain safe conditions, they can be held legally responsible.
At Wilk Law Firm, our Delaware County slip and fall attorneys fight for victims injured on unsafe premises. We provide the experience, compassion, and determination needed to pursue justice and full compensation for your injuries.
Understanding Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall accidents are part of premises liability law, which holds property owners accountable when they fail to keep their premises safe for visitors. Whether the hazard occurs in a grocery store, parking lot, apartment complex, or public area, property owners must take reasonable steps to prevent harm.
Common causes of slip and fall accidents include:
- Wet or slippery floors without warning signs
- Uneven surfaces or damaged flooring
- Poor lighting in walkways or stairwells
- Ice or snow accumulation on sidewalks or entrances
- Loose handrails or broken stairs
- Cluttered walkways or debris
- Neglect of known hazards by property managers or landlords
When property owners ignore safety hazards, innocent people get hurt — and that’s where our firm steps in.
Common Slip and Fall Injuries
Slip and fall injuries can vary from mild to catastrophic, depending on the impact and the victim’s health. Some of the most common include:
- Fractured or broken bones
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Neck and spinal cord injuries
- Hip and knee injuries
- Sprains and torn ligaments
- Permanent disability or chronic pain
These injuries can lead to months of recovery, medical treatments, and financial hardship. Our attorneys make sure negligent parties are held accountable for the damage they’ve caused.
Proving Liability in a Slip and Fall Case
To win a slip and fall case in Pennsylvania, your attorney must establish that:
- A hazardous condition existed on the property.
- The property owner knew or should have known about it.
- The owner failed to fix or warn about the danger.
- The hazardous condition caused your injury.
At Wilk Law Firm, we investigate every detail — from security footage and witness testimony to maintenance records — to prove that negligence led to your accident.

- Medical expenses and rehabilitation
