Holding property owners accountable for unsafe conditions
No one expects to be hurt while running to the store, visiting a friend, or walking through a parking lot. But when property owners fail to maintain safe conditions, the results can be life-changing.
Slip and fall injuries are among the most common and most misunderstood personal injury claims in Texas. These cases aren’t about clumsiness or bad luck. They’re about responsibility.
At Stucky Injury Law, we help victims of slips, trips, and falls recover physically, financially, and emotionally. If a dangerous property caused your injury, we’ll make sure the owner, business, or management company is held accountable.
Premises liability covers a wide range of situations where property owners fail to keep their property reasonably safe. Common examples include
Wet or slippery floors without warning signs
Uneven flooring or broken steps
Poor lighting in stairways or parking lots
Missing or broken handrails
Cracked sidewalks or pavement hazards
Falling merchandise in stores
Negligent security leading to assault or injury
Dog bites or unsafe animals
Unsafe pools or recreational areas
If someone’s negligence caused the hazard that led to your injury — whether it’s a grocery store, apartment complex, or private home — you may be entitled to compensation.
To win a premises liability case in Texas, you must show that the property owner or manager:
Knew or should have known about a dangerous condition
Failed to fix it or warn visitors in a reasonable time, and
That negligence directly caused your injuries
Property owners owe different levels of responsibility depending on whether you were an invitee, licensee, or trespasser, which makes experience crucial in proving your case.
We work closely with medical experts to ensure your injuries and their long-term effects are fully documented and compensated.
What might seem like a “simple fall” can result in severe and lasting injuries:
If you’ve been injured on someone else’s property, taking the right steps can make all the difference:
To a manager, landlord, or property owner.
Even small injuries can worsen later.
Of the area, any hazards, and your injuries.
And contact information if anyone saw what happened.
To insurance adjusters.
As soon as possible, before evidence disappears.
If it’s been weeks or months since your fall, you may still have a case. Texas generally allows two years from the date of the injury to file a premises liability claim.
Common questions about slip and fall cases
Yes — delayed symptoms are very common. As long as you file within the legal time limit and can connect your injury to the fall, you may still have a case.
Not necessarily. Texas law uses a comparative negligence system. Even if you were partly at fault, you can still recover compensation if you were less than 51% responsible.
Repairs don’t erase their responsibility. In fact, they can indicate that the owner knew about the danger.
There’s no upfront cost. We only get paid when we win your case.
Depending on your situation, compensation may include:
