Any accident on another person's or business's property that results in a fall can have serious consequences for the injured person, but not all falls are created equal. There are many ways to categorize falling accidents, but one of the more important factors is the kind of terrain on which the injured person fell: was it a relatively flat surface, or was there an elevation difference involved? Most falling injuries are caused by accidents that take place on a fairly level area, such as an uneven sidewalk, a lawn with a gopher hole, or a slippery supermarket floor. However, elevated falls – accidents that involve falling from any height – often mean much more serious injuries for the accident victim.
