Houston Slip and Fall Attorney
Were You Injured In A Slip & Fall Accident?
At the Hollingsworth Law Firm, our Houston slip and fall accident lawyers and support staff know that no one expects to be injured while shopping or having lunch with friends in Texas. Unfortunately, dangerous conditions exist nearly everywhere we go, including the grocery store or our favorite restaurants.
The National Floor Safety Institute reported that last year alone, more than one million people across the country sought emergency medical care for slip and fall accidents and injuries.
Our Harris County slip and fall accident attorneys know that most of these incidents and injuries are preventable but require business and property owners to keep their premises safe for employees, customers, and guests.
When property owners fail to provide a safe environment for lawful visitors, they are liable for their negligence, and we can help ensure they are held accountable for our client’s injuries.
Our skilled legal staff offers services in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Mandarin because we believe in inclusion, fairness, and justice. It is only possible to successfully represent the people in our communities when we can successfully represent all people.

Where Do Most Slip and Fall Accidents Occur in Texas?
When negligence is a factor, slip, and fall accidents can happen anywhere.
Common locations where negligence is pervasive and leads to slip and fall accidents on both public and private property may include shopping malls, restaurants, grocery stores, retail outlets, hotels and resorts, or while visiting a friend.
Some of the most common causes of slip and fall accidents in Texas often include:
- Cluttered Floors and Walkways
- Loose Floor Mats
- Falls From Heights
- Exposed, Loose, or Unfastened Cables
- Broken Stairs, Elevators, or Escalators
- Spilled Liquids or Food
- Freshly Waxed or Mopped Surfaces
- Uneven Sidewalks
- Missing or Damaged Hand Railings
- Inadequate Lighting
Business and property owners have a duty to provide a safe space for visitors to enjoy, and when they delay necessary maintenance, fail to clean up spills, or fail to post warnings regarding the dangers, people are going to get hurt.

What are the Most Common Injuries Associated with Slip and Fall Accidents in Texas?
Slips and falls often cause significant injuries because of the surprising nature of the accident. Most people are not actively looking for hazards in public places, and certainly believe if there are such circumstances, there should also be a warning.
Because negligence is difficult to foresee, approximately five percent of slip and fall accidents involve broken bones. In 20-30% of cases, slip and fall accidents lead to severe injuries.
Common injuries associated with slip and fall accidents in Texas include:
- Joint Dislocations
- Bone Fractures

I liked how Steve explained everything, so I knew what I was getting in to. Steve got me what I deserved in no time. I would recommend him to anyone.
Steven and I attended law school together and I have known him since 2000. He was stellar in representing a close friend with a personal injury matter. I have been very impressed with his communication, dedication and thoroughness in representation.
Steve is the real deal! He is an extremely invaluable resource on all things Litigation for me as a younger attorney. He is not only great a securing the bigger verdicts, but actually cares about the clients and still sticks by his tried and true method of meeting, in person, with his clients to go over facts . overall, a solid attorney, with a wealth of knowledge!
After working with Steve for a couple of years, I found Steve to be an outstanding, aggressive and highly skilled lawyer in the courtroom. His confidence and knowledge of the courtroom and what it takes to succeed there, I believe will ensure his long term prosperity.
I had the pleasure of working on a trial with Steven last August. His background as an ADA is clearly evident in the courtroom. Steven's presentation of the evidence throughout trial is that of a seasoned attorney who has spent many hours in front of a jury. His opening/closings were excellent, as well as his strategic litigating throughout the trial. Steven is a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with, and watch in the courtroom.
When I met Steve, I was a legal assistant at a Plaintiff’s firm and he was working as an attorney for AIG. We connected there and then. Steve is a likable guy and an outstanding trial lawyer. He is charismatic and jurors like him. He is a Plaintiff’s lawyer now and he has the right skill set to represent injured individuals: he is compassionate, honest, and sincere and will go the extra mile for his clients. I’ve known Steve for almost 8 years now and I’m excited to see his career evolve.
