A slip and fall accident can cause serious injuries and unexpected financial hardship. A fall may result in broken bones, head injuries, spinal injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and other lasting consequences.
If you were injured because of a dangerous or unsafe condition on someone else’s property, you may have a premises liability claim.
At Pritchett Personal Injury Law Firm, we represent individuals injured on properties in Omaha and throughout Nebraska. We can investigate the circumstances of your accident, gather evidence, communicate with insurance companies, and help pursue the compensation you may be entitled to receive.

Do You Have a Premises Liability Claim?
Property owners and other parties responsible for maintaining a property may have legal duties concerning reasonably safe conditions. Whether a property owner or another party can be held responsible depends on the circumstances of the accident and applicable Nebraska law.
A premises liability claim may involve questions such as:
- What caused the accident?
- Was the property owner aware of the dangerous condition?
- Should the condition have been discovered through reasonable inspection?
- Was the dangerous condition repaired or addressed?
- Was an adequate warning provided?
- Did the condition cause your injury?
Evidence can be particularly important in these cases. Photographs, surveillance footage, incident reports, maintenance records, witness statements, and medical records may help establish what happened.
Our Omaha premises liability attorney can review the circumstances of your accident and explain your potential legal options.
Compensation You May Recover
Depending on the circumstances of your case, compensation may be available for:
- Medical expenses and future treatment
- Rehabilitation and therapy
- Lost wages
- Reduced earning capacity
- Physical pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Other damages permitted under Nebraska law
A serious fall can affect your health, finances, employment, and daily life. We can evaluate the broader impact of your injuries when pursuing your claim.
How We Can Help
Important evidence in a premises liability case can sometimes disappear quickly. Surveillance footage may be overwritten, dangerous conditions may be repaired, and witnesses may become difficult to locate.
Pritchett Personal Injury Law Firm can investigate the accident, gather available evidence, communicate with insurance companies, assess potential liability, and work to build a strong claim.
If negotiations do not produce a satisfactory outcome, our attorney is prepared to pursue litigation when appropriate.
