What to do After an Airport Accident
After sustaining an injury in an airport accident, you should do everything you can to document the accident. Try to take the following steps:
- Notify a security guard or a law enforcement officer of your accident. They should send additional emergency services to the scene.
- Ask anyone who witnessed your accident for their name, phone number, email address, and any other means by which you may contact them at a later date so they can corroborate your claim.
- Take pictures of the dangerous airport conditions that caused you to slip and fall.
- Seek medical treatment and obtain copies of all medical documents/bills regarding your injury.
- Hire a knowledgeable Toronto personal injury lawyer who can work to obtain all additional evidence needed to satisfy the burden of proof in your personal injury claim, such as security camera footage of your accident happening.
Recovering Compensation
As long as you can satisfy the burden of proof in your personal injury claim, you should recover financial compensation to help offset some of the monetary and emotional burdens you’ve sustained as a result of your accident. You may recover compensation to help cover the cost of medical bills, lost wages, rehabilitation, emotional distress, pain and suffering, and more.
