If you have suffered an injury, you do not need to suffer the effects without assistance. The lawyers at Alam Law Firm can help.

I would like to express my gratitude to Alam Law Firm for handling my salon negligence case with utmost dedication and professionalism. From the initial phase of consultation to case settlement they guided me at each step. The case was settled within two years with positive outcome. Each member of the team under the guidance of Mr Alam was excellent. I will recommend anyone going through a similar situation to have Alam Law Firm represent them.

After suffering serious injuries in an accident as an uber passenger, I struggled with finding a lawyer that would take my case. Alam Law firm was recommended by another personal injury lawyer and I consider myself very fortunate for it. The lawyers and staff consistently went above and beyond to get me access to the treatment, adaptive equipment, and support care I desperately needed. They fought hard for a settlement that far surpassed anything I expected to get. I strongly feel that I would not have survived my injuries had it not been for the great team at Alam Law. It has been a brutal journey but at every stage, Alam Law was by my side and I will forever be grateful for it. Their professionalism, empathy, compassion, patience, skill, knowledge, treatment connections, and genuine care ethic are top tier. I hope no one needs the services of a personal injury lawyer but should it be necessary, I don’t think there is a better firm than Alam Law.

Alam Law is definitely a Law Firm that I recommend. They helped us with a complex case that we had consulted 3 other lawyers and our case was declined each time, but when we reached out to Mr.Muhammad Alam, he took the case, and did an excellent job, and got us a settlement. The whole team is very professional and extremely helpful, they guided us through out the case, they invested their time, prepared all the documentation needed, and and took all the steps necessary to make sure we had the best outcome possible. Thank you Mr. Alam, and the whole team for your expertise, help, and compassion. Very highly recommend! Momena

Hello I want to express my profound gratitude for the remarkable legal support I received from Alam Law Firm. From the outset, their unwavering dedication and genuine concern for my case were evident.

Navigating a personal injury case was a daunting journey, but Alam Law Firm made it far more manageable. What truly distinguished them was their exceptional personal touch. They didn't just treat me as a client; they treated me as an individual going through a difficult time. Their empathy and support were invaluable. They fought hard for my catastrophic case with the Insurer

Throughout the entire process, they were always available to address my inquiries and provide expert guidance. They kept me well-informed at every juncture, ensuring I comprehended the progress of my case. Their professionalism and meticulous attention to detail were truly commendable. Alam Law Firm's legal expertise and unwavering commitment yielded a successful resolution for my case. I couldn't have asked for a more proficient legal team. I wholeheartedly endorse Alam Law Firm to anyone seeking personal injury legal representation. They are not just exceptional lawyers; they are compassionate advocates who genuinely care about their clients.

Thank you, Alam Law Firm, for your exceptional service and for surpassing all expectations in securing the justice and compensation I rightfully deserved. Christine

Mr. Muhammad Alam and his team helped me get through to a tough time going on with my life. I am very impressed on the things they did for me. "I personally think 5 stars is not enough".

Documenting And Assessing The Hazard

Slip-and-fall claims must be filed quickly, both to preserve the evidence and to meet legal deadlines. If you have fallen on city property, you may have only a matter of days to file. Documenting the condition of the area in which you fell and contacting our law firm right away will help your chances for a successful legal claim.
Cellphone pictures, videos, and the names and numbers of any witnesses are all valuable pieces of potential evidence. Our FAQ page on slip-and-fall cases has more information.
A trip-and-fall accident can be the result of any number of hazards. Property conditions that can lead to a serious injury include:
  • Unstable store displays
  • Store spills, including wet floors from cleaning, fallen produce or liquids
  • Broken or unstable staircases
  • Uneven flooring
  • Poor lighting in staircases and hallways
  • Icy sidewalks
If you are recovering from a slip-and-fall injury, our lawyers can help. We will assess what happened, how you were injured and whether you may be able to advance a legal claim for personal injury. We will be your advocates throughout legal proceedings.

What can I get compensation for?

Being hurt in a slip and fall can lead to financial difficulties for the injured person, but a slip and fall accident lawyer can help. Depending on the extent of your injuries, you may have medical expenses that are not covered by OHIP or your health insurance. This may include treatment such as physical therapy or mobility devices such as a walker or wheelchair.In the case of a permanent injury, you may need to make modifications to your home to make it more accessible, which can also be very costly.
But even a less severe injury can prove expensive if you require homecare, or you need to hire someone to help with the household chores for a few weeks while you recover. Depending on the injury and the nature of your work, you may also need to take some time off and end up losing wages.

When you work with a slip and fall lawyer, they can help you get compensation for all of your out-of-pocket expenses as well as lost wages. Additionally, you may qualify to get compensation for pain and suffering as well as punitive damages.

Slip-And-Fall Claims - FAQs

Occupier’s liability refers to the body of law which holds a landowner and/or possessor of property liable for injuries to others sustained on their property, like a slip-and-fall incident.
First, immediately make provision for your safety and health. If you are injured, make sure that you seek medical attention. If you are able, try to obtain the following information and immediately consult a personal injury lawyer:
  1. The name and address and of the owner of the property
  2. The name and address of all witnesses to the accident or who may have seen you lying on the ground
  3. The name and address of all persons to whom you have reported the incident
  4. Some pictures of the area or objects that caused your fall
Yes. The condition of the premises at the time of the injury will be a pivotal issue in resolving any claim and photos can document that condition. Also, take photos of all physical injuries you have sustained (such as bruises, scrapes, lacerations, etc.).
This will often depend on whether the person on the property was a business invitee, a social guest or a trespasser. A business invitee is on the property by invitation and usually for mutual economic benefit. A social guest is on the premises by invitation and not for any economic benefit. A trespasser is on the premises without permission. Generally, property owner’s duty of care is the highest with a business invitee while the lowest duty of care is to a trespasser.
f the following can be proved, you may be able to file a successful lawsuit:
  1. The property owner was “negligent”, which means that the property owner breached the legal duty owed to the injured individual;
  2. There is causation, meaning that the property owner’s specific acts of negligence caused the injuries; and
  3. As a result of the property owner’s negligence you suffered losses.

The injured party must prove that the defendant was negligent toward them. It must be shown that the landowner/occupant possessed the premises at the time of the accident and that they had control of the premises, and control of the condition thereof.

Generally, a plaintiff will be able to recover all economic damages (income loss and medical and other expenses etc), incurred resulting from the occurrence. Many times noneconomic damages are also awarded (i.e., pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, inconvenience, etc.).

Yes. If you have been injured in a premises accident, including a slip-and-fall accident, it is advisable to immediately consult a personal injury lawyer. The insurance company for the property owner is not your ally regardless of how cooperative or friendly it may seem. That insurance company has lawyers and other resources to try to defeat any claim you assert. In order to be on equal footing, you need to have an injury lawyer on your side. Early consultation with a personal injury lawyer can also help your case in that your lawyer may be able to help investigate and document your case. Sometimes a delay results in witnesses and evidence disappearing or becoming more difficult to obtain. The opposing insurance company will be aggressively investigating your case and you need someone doing the same for you. Please contact our firm to schedule your free initial consultation.
