Slip and Fall Injury Lawyer in Maryland
Hurt in a Slip and Fall at a Store or Business? We Help You Hold Big Corporations Accountable.
If you slipped at a grocery store, restaurant, or chain coffee shop and ended up in urgent care or the ER, you are not alone—and you’re not to blame. Falls happen quickly, but they can cause months of pain, medical bills, and lost income. And when the accident occurs in a place of business like Starbucks, Target, or Safeway, you have every right to expect the company to take responsibility. At The Law Offices of Nicholas A. Parr, we help Maryland residents pursue fair compensation for injuries caused by unsafe conditions on commercial property. You will work directly with Nick, not a case manager, and he’ll explain every step in plain English.
When Are Stores Liable for Slip and Fall Injuries?
Corporations have a duty to keep their premises reasonably safe for customers. That means:
- Cleaning up spills in a timely manner
- Placing warning signs near wet or recently mopped floors
- Fixing broken tiles, uneven mats, or unsafe entryways
- Removing ice and snow from walkways
- Ensuring adequate lighting in stairwells and aisles
If a business fails to fix or warn about a dangerous condition, and you are injured as a result, they can be held legally liable for your damages. Our team gathers surveillance footage, incident reports, witness statements, and maintenance logs to show how the accident could have been prevented.
Common Places Slip and Fall Injuries Happen
- Coffee shops and fast food restaurants (e.g., Starbucks, Dunkin’, McDonald’s)
- Grocery stores (e.g., Giant, Safeway, Whole Foods)
- Retail stores and malls (e.g., Target, Walmart, Westfield)
- Apartment buildings and commercial office spaces
- Hotel lobbies and parking garages
Even if you feel embarrassed or unsure whether it was “your fault,” we encourage you to talk to a lawyer. Maryland law allows claims for injuries caused by negligence, and time is critical to preserve evidence.
Injuries We Commonly See From Falls
- Fractured wrists, elbows, hips, or ankles
- Head injuries, including concussion or traumatic brain injury
- Back and neck injuries
- Torn ligaments or rotator cuff tears
- Long-term mobility issues
These injuries often require imaging, physical therapy, and follow-up care, not to mention time off work. We make sure your claim reflects the full scope of your loss.
What Compensation Can You Receive for a Slip and Fall?
If you were hurt due to a business’s negligence, you may be entitled to:
- Medical bills (past and future)
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Permanent impairment
- Out-of-pocket expenses (e.g., crutches, prescriptions, transportation)
Insurance companies often try to blame the victim or downplay the seriousness of injuries. Nick fights back with the facts, documenting your treatment, preserving video, and pushing for a settlement that actually covers your needs. If they won’t offer what’s fair, he’ll take them to court.
Why Hire Nicholas A. Parr for Your Slip and Fall Case?
- You’ll receive personal oversight from Nick for the entirety of your case
- He acts quickly to preserve surveillance video and incident reports
- He understands how big corporate insurers operate
- He keeps you informed and answers your calls
Slip and fall cases can be complex, especially when large chains are involved. With Nick on your side, you get an experienced litigator who knows Maryland law and how to present your case with strength.
