Arizona Slip and Fall Accident Statute of Limitations
As lawyers who handle many slip and fall accident claims in Arizona, it is important that all injury victims of slip and falls know that there are strict statute of limitations under Arizona law for these types of cases. The statute of limitations in Arizona for slip and fall claims will be dependent on the establishment where you fell or the person or company that is responsible for your injury. Slip and fall accidents are rampant in Arizona. This is somewhat surprising considering that buildings are newer; however, the fact remains that establishments do not do everything that they can to make their environments safe. If everyone made sure that people were safe, we would not receive all the slip and fall injury calls that we do each day.
Arizona Slip and Fall Accident Statistics
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revealed that thousands of individuals are injured every year due to slip and fall accidents. More than 17,000 victims died every year due to these injuries. Meanwhile, the 2006 Liberty Mutual Workplace Safety Index reported that the estimated yearly direct cost of disabling occupational injuries was more than $11 billion.
Why Do you Have to Act Now?
If you have been injured in a slip and fall accident, it is important that you know your legal rights. You should consult a lawyer to understand your statute of limitations. An Arizona slip and fall lawyer should be able to tell you your statute of limitations after discussing the facts with you. If someone tells you without knowing any circumstances of your case other than that you slipped and fell, do not trust that they are telling you the correct laws. We have seen many people miss their statute of limitations because they were given wrong information by a lawyer or friend who was not an expert in this area of law.
