Fisher & Talwar is a personal injury law firm that services the entire State of California including Los Angeles County, Orange County, Riverside County and respective cities. If you’ve been injured in the state of California, we can help.
Have you been hurt in a slip and fall accident in Lakewood, California? You may be able to file a personal injury claim. Lawsuits related to slip and fall accidents fall under a broader area of personal injury law known as premises liability law. In California, property owners owe a duty of care to certain people on the property. This duty of care requires the property owner to take steps to prevent injuries caused by unsafe conditions. When a property owner fails to take precautions or to warn someone on the property about a known danger, they may be liable for damages. Since slip and fall injuries often result from a hazard on the property, most slip and fall lawsuits are brought as premises liability claims.
If you recently sustained injuries in a slip and fall accident, you should learn more about filing a lawsuit by speaking with a Lakewood premises liability lawyer.

I was rear ended as I was driving my car. Vibhu Talwar represented me and got me money for my car and my injuries. I was very happy with his services.
Mr. Talwar provided excellent council for my case. He was thorough, detailed and extremely knowledgeable about the letter of the law. He seemed to relish the challenge of competing against the huge law firm that brought a case against me. I would highly recommend Mr. Talwar for any legal needs.
Slips and falls can result in many different types of personal injuries, according to a fact sheet from the World Health Organization (WHO). At Fisher & Talwar, we regularly assist clients whose slip, trip, and fall accidents have resulted in the following kinds of injuries:
Slips and falls can lead to many different injuries in addition to those mentioned above. If you got hurt in a slip and fall accident that resulted from another party’s negligence, it is important to learn more about filing a claim for compensation.
If you do get hurt in a slip and fall accident, it is important to pay close attention to the California statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits. The statute of limitations is the amount of time you have from the date of the injury to file your claim. Under California law, plaintiffs typically have two years from the date of the injury to seek compensation by filing a lawsuit.
As such, if your slip and fall injuries occurred, for instance, on January 1, 2017, you would have two years from that date to file a claim. If you do not file a lawsuit within that two-year period, you may lose your right to seek compensation for your losses.

According to a fact sheet from the National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI), fall-related accidents lead to around eight million visits to emergency departments every year, and they are the leading cause of trips to emergency rooms. Of those falls, slip and fall accidents account for more than one million patients in emergency departments. In many of these cases, another party’s negligence contributed to the accident.
If you recently sustained slip and fall injuries, you should discuss your case with a Lakewood slip and fall accident attorney as soon as possible. Contact Fisher & Talwar today to learn more about how our team can assist with your claim.
