Slip and fall accidents on public property—such as sidewalks, parks, or municipal buildings—can lead to serious injuries. In Ontario, knowing what to do immediately after a fall is critical to protecting your rights and preserving your chance for fair compensation. Step 1: Seek Medical Attention Your health comes first. Even if injuries seem minor, symptoms like concussions or internal bruising may appear hours later. Medical records also serve as crucial evidence. Step 2: Document the Scene Take photos of the exact location, surrounding conditions, weather, and any contributing hazards (ice, uneven pavement, poor lighting). Capture these before the property is repaired or cleared. Step 3: Report the Incident For falls on municipal property, report the incident to the city or town as soon as possible. Ontario law imposes strict notice requirements—often within 10 days for claims against municipalities. Failure to notify can bar you from pursuing compensation. Step 4: Gather Witnesses If anyone saw your fall, get their contact information. Independent witnesses can confirm key facts that support your version of events. Step 5: Speak with a Personal Injury Lawyer Public property claims are more complex than private ones. Municipalities are governed by special rules, and liability isn't automatic. An experienced personal injury lawyer can assess if negligence was involved—for example, failure to salt sidewalks, delay in fixing broken steps, or inadequate signage. Compensation You May Be Entitled To: Medical expenses Lost wages Pain and suffering Future rehabilitation costs Final Thoughts If you’ve been injured on public property, don’t delay. Strict timelines and municipal protections mean acting fast is essential. Contact Hilborn and Konduros today for a free consultation—we’ll help you understand your rights and take the next step.
