Who Is Liable In a Slip and Fall Accident in Atlanta, GA?
If you have been seriously injured in a private residence, public, government, or commercial property due to the negligence of a property owner, you may be entitled to compensation. It is the responsibility of a property owner and/or manager to maintain an adequate standard of care in the event that a visitor will be entering the premises, so when potentially hazardous conditions are ignored—including spills left on the floor, slick or oily surfaces, uneven pavement, etc.—they may be held accountable for their negligent actions through the concept of premises liability.
In such injury cases, you will want to find an Atlanta slip and fall injury attorney who can handle a personal injury lawsuit. The lawyers at Henningsen Injury Attorneys, P.C. are licensed to practice and part of the Trial Lawyers Association, which means we’re ready to handle anything from pedestrian accidents, slip and fall cases to more serious cases in which a Georgia spinal cord injury lawyer may be required. If you’re considering legal action following your slip and fall, depend on our competent team of legal experts to help you with your case.

Atlanta Slip and Fall Injury Attorney: How Can You Receive Compensation?
In order to make a valid case against the responsible party, you must be able to show that:
- The owner or property manager was aware of the dangerous or hazardous condition and failed to remedy the problem in a timely manner;
- The owner or property manager should have known of the danger—in the case that any other reasonable person in the same position would have recognized and remedied the problem.
If you have reasonable evidence to prove that either of these factors leads to the accident that has caused you harm, you should not hesitate to take legal action. In the aftermath of a slip and fall accident, it is important to act quickly by retaining the assistance of an experienced Atlanta premises liability attorney as soon as possible after an injury was sustained.
Slip, Trip & Fall Accidents in Atlanta, Georgia: Act Quickly!
Owners and tenants of businesses, including retail stores, grocery stores, restaurants, government buildings, and private residences including swimming pools, construction sites, and business offices have a duty to maintain the property in a reasonably safe condition and to post warnings when a hazard exists. Children, pregnant women, and the elderly are especially likely to be severely injured in a slip and fall accident. After an injury has occurred, the owner or staff members will take steps to resolve the hazard to ensure that no one else will be injured in the future, and to ensure that evidence that could be used against them is quickly removed.
After a slip and fall accident, the insurance company involved will frequently dispatch investigators to conduct interviews of witnesses and gather evidence to assist in limiting owner or tenant’s liability. It is very important to quickly first seek legal advice and contact an Atlanta slip and fall injury lawyer at our firm who can take immediate steps to photograph and document the accident scene and preserve evidence vital to proving the facts of your case. This will significantly curtail insurance companies’ efforts to provide you with a deal that is far less superior than what you may deserve.

I would recommend to anyone! I’ve heard horror stories about various law firms and I was very skeptical in the beginning. However, I am so grateful for my experience with... read more the Henningsen Law Firm. This is actually a late review. My first experience with them was in 2018. Mrs. Tammy was my case manager and she is A1! She is very professional. Mrs. Tammy communicates thoroughly and timely which is really important when going through an emergency situation. Any time I had a question, Mrs. Tammy answered me with clear and direct answers! I had never been in an accident prior to my incident in 2018 and she gave me so much peace throughout my case. I am so glad I found them. During that time, I didn’t have any medical insurance, my car was a total loss, and suddenly it was a domino effect of unfortunate events for me such as losing my job, housing, etc...My attorney group still made sure I had the best medical care and transportation. I’d also like to mention that my settlement was reached pretty quickly compared to what I’ve been told is the norm; and it was more than enough for me to get my life back together, even after the medical bills, etc...I truly felt as if they fought for me! I’ve recently been in another accident. I didn’t even think twice before calling them again and I asked for Mrs. Tammy, lol. No offense to any other case managers because if you work with this firm, I’m sure you’re great. However, my grandma always told me “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”! I love Mrs. Tammy💚. I have no worries about anything. Anytime someone I know gets in an accident, I refer them to Todd Henningsen because I know they will be taken care of all the way around. He is considered a “Super Lawyer” for a reason! You would think I was on their payroll the way I talk about my experience with this firm, but it’s only because I mean it and I want to help someone else make the best decision for themselves as well! If you have any doubt, let Henningsen see you out! God bless

They Are very professional and one of the best in the business , from the first phone call I placed after my accident , an investigator was sent to me... read more to fill out the paper work, I didn’t have to leave the house. Within two days I got a claim number for my property damage from the firm. And I was emailed a copy of my police report and next steps . Carmen took over my case and honestly she is amazing, she was very diligent, consistent , knowledgeable , thorough and patient, she carried me along through every milestone and kept me updated . Mr Todd is a brilliant lawyer , he honestly exceeded my expectations, I didn’t sustain any major injury but mr Todd was able to get a settlement for the full policy limit . I am very happy and I will be referring Henningsen injury attorney to anyone I know.

I'm sure glad I did because they took over and I stopped stressing about it. I wish I had called them earlier. I tell anyone that's been in an accident to call them.

I was in a very severe motorcycle accident in September of 2017. I was in the hospital for a long period of time. I went online and googled injury attorneys... read more and the hennigsen firm popped up. I called and Todd was at the hospital within an few hours. He sat down explained everything to me to make sure I understood what we needed to do and the direction to take things. I am very pleased with their services. They always called me back and if I had a question they got back with me as soon as possible. They are truly great people and will take GREAT care of you. Carmen was great as well. She was always on top of things and got back with me promptly. I couldn’t have asked for better people to help me through such a difficult time in my life. If you are in need of any kind of legal support that they specialize in i highly recommend them. They are VERY trustworthy people and always look out for your best interest.

My Son was hit by at truck while attending college. Fortunately he was not critically injured, but he suffered physical and emotional trauma. Todd Henningsen took on our case and... read more was able to get a settlement that fairly compensated my son, not only the medical bills, but for the entire traumatic experience. Todd and his staff, particularly Carmen, patiently guided us through the entire process and we felt we were in good and capable hands from the beginning. If you are looking for an injury attorney, it's because someone you love has been injured or perhaps worse. This is when you need to feel the utmost confidence in the people that are representing you, taking the stress out of an already difficult time. I highly recommend Henningsen Injury Attorneys, PC .

Also, it took almost two years for my previous cases to be settled so you can imagine my surprise when LaShanda called me and told me my offer from the insurance company was in after only 5 months?!

I am so blessed to have found Henningsen Injury Attorneys! EXCELLENT and efficient representation! They assisted me in a car accident injury claim. Before finding them I was... read more using another attorney whose office had poor customer service and lacked professionalism and integrity. Due to this unacceptable behavior, I sought out another attorney and came across Henningsen and decided to give them a ring. Not only were Mr. Henningsen’s contingency fees more affordable than the first attorney, but every single staff member was extremely professional and compassionate – this was evident from my initial phone inquiry with their office when I spoke with Carmen. She talked to me for over 30 minutes and made sure to answer all questions to my satisfaction and even answered questions I didn’t think to ask! I know they have other clients, but she never made me feel like she was “too busy” for me; I felt like a priority. She also responded super quickly to all emails. While I was hurt, they sent someone to my house to handle the paperwork for me. They explained the process and followed up with me often to see how I was feeling, providing case updates along the way. I told Carmen several times, that they really were the silver lining in a horrible experience. You can tell they care. I hope to never be in another accident, but if I am, there is no way I would even consider another attorney. I rarely write reviews, but they’re very deserving of this. I want everyone to know, you’re in great hands with Henningsen Injury Attorneys. Highly recommended!
