The Problem
You’re hurt — and the property owner is pretending it never happened.
What Happened
Falls in South Fulton happen in stores, restaurants, apartment complexes and parking lots, including around Camp Creek Marketplace. Wet floors, broken stairs, poor lighting and uneven pavement are common causes.
How It Feels
You feel embarrassed. People don’t take slip and fall victims seriously — like you’re clumsy or exaggerating. You’re frustrated the owner who created the hazard is acting like nothing happened, and you’re worried it’s your word against theirs.
What’s Fair
Owners who invite the public onto their premises have a duty to keep those spaces safe. When they cut corners and someone gets hurt, they should be held accountable. Negligence isn’t an accident. It’s a choice.
South Fulton Slip and Fall Cases
What to know about slip and fall claims in South Fulton.
Stores, restaurants, apartment complexes, hotels and parking lots across South Fulton, including Camp Creek Marketplace.
Grady Memorial Hospital, Piedmont Fayette Hospital. We gather records from every provider who treated you and track the cost of future care.
Incident reports, inspection and cleaning logs, maintenance records and surveillance video. Businesses often overwrite video within days, so we send preservation letters right away.
What You’re Up Against
Property owners who knew — and did nothing.
Slip and fall cases come down to one question: did the owner know about the hazard, or should they have? Almost always, the answer is yes — and the evidence destruction starts the moment you hit the floor.
Mopping without wet floor signs, spills ignored for hours, merchandise blocking aisles, liquid on the floor — and surveillance footage that conveniently ‘overwrites’ within 14 days.
Broken stairs, poor lighting, damaged walkways. Tenants report these hazards repeatedly. Management ignores them — until someone falls and the maintenance log gets sanitized.
Grease on kitchen floors, uneven flooring, cluttered pathways, transition strips left loose. Cost-cutting on maintenance creates predictable injuries to invitees.
Meet Your Legal Team
Gunn Law Group — we take falls seriously, because we’ve seen the damage.
Why We Do This
People dismiss slip and fall injuries. Insurers call them “minor.” We don’t. We’ve seen so-called minor falls turn into surgeries, months of rehab, and permanent disability. We take these cases seriously because we’ve seen what happens when no one else does.
Our Track Record
Millions recovered for Georgia premises liability victims.
Deep command of Georgia premises liability law (O.C.G.A. § 51-3-1).
We investigate maintenance history, prior complaints, and surveillance footage.
We work with medical experts who connect the fall to the specific injury.
The Plan
Three steps from the crash to compensation.
Step 01
Call 888-BIG-GUNN. We assess whether the property owner owed you a duty of care and whether they breached it. No fee unless we win.
Step 02
We immediately demand preservation of surveillance footage, incident reports, maintenance records, and inspection logs — before they ‘disappear.’
Georgia Premises Liability Law
The statutes that put the property owner on the hook.
Georgia property owners owe invitees (customers and other business guests) a duty of ordinary care to keep premises in a reasonably safe condition and warn of known hazards.
You must prove the owner had actual knowledge of the hazard — or should have known through reasonable inspection. Constructive knowledge is often the key to winning these cases.
If you’re less than 50% at fault, you can still recover — reduced by your share of fault. Insurers aggressively push the ‘you weren’t watching’ defense to shift blame onto you.
What’s at Stake
What happens if you wait.
Surveillance footage is typically overwritten within 14–30 days — once gone, your strongest evidence is gone.
Property owners repair hazards immediately after an incident — no documentation, no proof of the condition.
Georgia’s 2-year statute of limitations (O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33) starts running the day you fall.
Without representation, insurers will argue you were at fault for not watching where you were going.
When We Win
What we fight for.
Medical bills covered — surgery, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatment.
Lost wages and diminished earning capacity fully compensated.
The property owner forced to fix the hazard so the next person doesn’t get hurt.
Your injuries taken seriously — not dismissed as ‘just a fall.’
Peace of mind knowing a negligent owner didn’t get to walk away.

FAQ
South Fulton Slip and Fall Questions
Report it to a manager, ask for an incident report, photograph the hazard and your shoes, and get witness names. Get medical care the same day.
It’s the standard defense, but Georgia’s modified comparative fault rule (O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33) lets you recover as long as you’re less than 50% at fault. We push back on the ‘open and obvious’ argument with surveillance, lighting analysis, and the owner’s own maintenance failures.
Get medical attention, report the fall to the property owner in writing, photograph the hazard and your injuries, get witness contact information, and keep the shoes and clothing you were wearing. Then call us — surveillance footage may be overwritten within two weeks.
Generally 2 years from the date of the fall under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33. But evidence — especially surveillance video and the actual hazardous condition — disappears in days. The legal deadline is not the practical deadline.
Apartment complexes owe tenants and their guests the same duty of ordinary care. If management knew about the broken stairs, dim lighting, or damaged walkway and didn’t fix it, they’re liable. We pull the maintenance work orders and tenant complaints to prove it.
Insurers love to call them minor. We’ve seen so-called minor falls result in hip replacements, traumatic brain injuries, months of rehab, and permanent disability. If you needed medical care, the case is worth evaluating — for free.
