To pursue a slip and fall claim, you need to show more than just the fact that you suffered a fall on someone else’s property. You must also show that the property or business owner’s negligence caused you to slip and fall.
For example, suppose you suffer a slip-and-fall accident in a supermarket. In this case, you will need to show that the supermarket either caused the condition that you slipped on (such as a puddle of water that leaked from a frozen display) or that the condition existed long enough that store employees should have discovered and cleaned up the spill. The supermarket is responsible for conducting reasonable maintenance sweeps of the store.
Many business or property owners try to avoid liability for slip and fall accidents by asserting that the injured victim bears some or all the fault. They may say, for example, that the victim chose to walk over an obvious slipping hazard, the victim wasn’t paying attention, or the person was wearing inappropriate footwear.
For these reasons, it helps to talk to a slip and fall attorney as soon as possible following an accident to better understand your legal rights and options and to have an experienced advocate fighting for the financial recovery you deserve.
If you’ve been injured due to a slip and fall accident in Santa Fe, you may be entitled to seek compensation from the owner of the business or property where your fall took place. A slip and fall claim can provide compensation for expenses and losses you have incurred due to your injuries, including:
We’ll fight for the compensation you deserve
Under New Mexico’s statute of limitations for premises liability claims, you typically must file a lawsuit to pursue compensation for a slip and fall accident within three years of the date of the accident. If you file suit after the limitations period has expired, the party or parties you are seeking compensation from can move to have your case permanently dismissed from court, and you may lose out on the opportunity for financial recovery of your expenses and losses.
Many factors can affect the process of settling a slip and fall claim, including the severity of your injuries and whether facts or liability are being contested. If the party you are seeking compensation from has accepted liability for your injuries and you have completed or will soon complete treatment, a settlement can be reached in a few months.
When an at-fault party contests liability or you have more extensive injuries, it can take longer to reach a settlement, sometimes as long as several years.
If you’ve been hurt, call Bert. Our Santa Fe premises liability attorney has the skills and resources to handle even the most complex cases. We know that getting fair compensation for your injuries can make a significant difference in your recovery and your life moving forward. We’ll be ready to discuss your accident during a free, no-obligation consultation when you call us or reach out to us online.

Client Reviews
January 2025 
I had never had to file a lawsuit in my life. I was afraid to even start the process. Una Campbell and staff like Maura were always so nice and always explained to me what was next. They checked up on me even if there was no movement in the case at the time. Even during a family emergency Una made sure she figured out how to show up to a meeting. I appreciated that but I would have understood. This made me see the hard work and the dedication she always put into all her cases. Thank you so much for everything. I wish you the Merriest of Christmases and many Happy New years!
