Injured in a slip and fall accident in Atlanta? BOB LAW Firm fights for premises liability victims across Georgia. If you were hurt due to unsafe conditions on someone else’s property, we’re here to help you get the compensation you deserve.

Trusted Representation for Slip and Fall Claims
A slip and fall accident can happen in an instant, but the injuries and financial consequences can last for months or even years. Property owners have a responsibility to maintain safe conditions for visitors, customers, tenants, and guests. When hazardous conditions such as wet floors, uneven walkways, poor lighting, broken stairs, or other dangerous property defects cause an injury, the property owner may be held responsible for the harm that results.

At BOB Law Firm, we represent slip and fall and premises liability victims throughout Georgia who have been injured due to unsafe conditions on someone else’s property. Our team understands the challenges injury victims face after an accident, including medical expenses, lost income, physical pain, and emotional distress. We are committed to investigating the circumstances of your accident, holding negligent property owners accountable, and pursuing the full compensation you deserve.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a slip and fall accident caused by a property owner’s negligence, BOB Law Firm is ready to protect your rights and help you move forward with confidence.

What is Premises Liability?
Premises liability is the area of law that holds property owners and occupiers responsible when someone is injured on their property due to unsafe conditions. In Georgia, under O.C.G.A. § 51-3-1, property owners owe a duty of ordinary care to keep their premises and approaches safe for invited guests (invitees). If they fail to maintain safe conditions or fail to warn of hidden hazards, they can be held liable for injuries that result.

Proving a Premises Liability Claim in Georgia
To win a premises liability case in Georgia, you generally must show:

The property owner had actual or constructive knowledge of the hazardous condition
The property owner failed to exercise ordinary care to fix the hazard or warn about it
You did not have equal or superior knowledge of the hazard
The hazardous condition was the proximate cause of your injuries
Common Slip and Fall Causes
Wet or slippery floors — if liquid has been on the floor for long enough for the owner to have noticed it (recently mopped surfaces without warning signs)

Uneven sidewalks or parking lots — normally we can expect normal cracks or unevenness and the law expects us to watch our step. But if there is a big crack and it is difficult to see, then the owner might be liable.

Poor lighting in stairwells, hallways, or parking garages

Torn carpet or loose flooring might catch our feet. A loose or misplaced mat might also cause us to trip.

Ice and snow accumulation might cause us to lose our footing if the owner failed to treat the walkway.

Unmarked changes in elevation (steps, curbs, ramps)

Where Slip and Fall Accidents Happen
Slip and fall accidents can occur virtually anywhere, including:

Grocery stores and retail shops
Restaurants and bars
Hotels and resorts
Office buildings and workplaces
Apartment complexes and rental properties
Hospitals and medical facilities
Parking lots and garages
Government buildings and public spaces
Georgia’s Comparative Negligence Rule
Georgia follows a modified comparative negligence rule under O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33. If you are found partially at fault for your slip and fall, your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. However, if you are 50% or more at fault, you are barred from recovery entirely. Insurance companies will try to blame you — our job is to fight back.

What to Do After a Slip and Fall
Report the incident to the property owner or manager immediately
Document the scene — take photos of the hazard, your injuries, and the surrounding area
Get contact information from any witnesses
Seek medical attention right away, even if injuries seem minor
Keep all medical records and receipts
Do not give a recorded statement to the property owner’s insurance company
Contact a premises liability attorney as soon as possible

Damages You May Be Entitled To
Medical bills (past and future)
Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Rehabilitation and physical therapy costs
Permanent disability or disfigurement
Loss of enjoyment of life
