Slip and Fall Lawyer Mississauga

Mississauga's Winter Slip-and-Fall Surge

From November to March, Trillium Health Partners' Mississauga Hospital and Credit Valley Hospital see a sharp spike in fall injuries. Freezing rain off Lake Ontario, plus inconsistent snow-clearing at plazas, condos and big-box parking lots, creates hazards that should never have existed.

Under Ontario's Occupiers' Liability Act, property owners must take reasonable steps to keep premises safe — salting walkways, repairing steps, fixing torn flooring. When they fail and you're hurt, you can claim compensation paid by their commercial insurance.

Critical: 10-Day Notice for Municipal Falls

If you fell on a City of Mississauga sidewalk or road, you must give the municipality written notice within 10 days. Miss it and your claim against the City is permanently barred. Call us the same day if your fall touched public property.
