Slip and Fall Lawyer in Mississauga

Mississauga's bustling commercial districts, sprawling shopping centres, and harsh Ontario winters create countless opportunities for dangerous slip and fall accidents. Whether you tripped on a broken sidewalk near the Hurontario LRT construction zone, slipped on an icy parking lot at Square One Shopping Centre, or fell on a wet floor inside a Mississauga office building, property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises safe. When they fail in that duty and you get hurt, UL Lawyers fights to hold them accountable and get you the compensation you deserve.

Slip and Fall Legal Services for Mississauga Residents

Mississauga's urban landscape presents numerous premises liability risks. The city's major shopping centres—Square One, Erin Mills Town Centre, and Heartland Town Centre—see millions of visitors annually. The ongoing Hurontario LRT construction has disrupted sidewalks and pedestrian pathways. And Ontario's winter weather means ice and snow hazards persist for months every year. When property owners fail to maintain safe conditions, serious injuries result.

Our slip and fall lawyers handle all types of premises liability cases in Mississauga, including:

• Winter ice and snow accidents — Falls on unsalted or uncleared parking lots, sidewalks, and building entrances throughout Mississauga
• Shopping centre and retail falls — Wet floors, uneven surfaces, and poorly maintained common areas at Square One, Erin Mills Town Centre, and other commercial properties
• Construction zone accidents — Falls near construction sites including the Hurontario LRT corridor, where pedestrian pathways may be inadequately maintained
• Apartment and condo common area falls — Poorly maintained lobbies, stairwells, and parking garages in Mississauga's many residential towers
• Municipal property falls — Accidents on City of Mississauga sidewalks, parks, and public facilities (strict 10-day notice requirement)
• Workplace slip and falls — Accidents in Mississauga warehouses, offices, and logistics facilities near Pearson Airport

Winter Slip and Fall Accidents in Mississauga

Mississauga's winters bring freezing temperatures, ice storms, and heavy snowfall that create treacherous conditions on sidewalks, parking lots, and building entrances. Property owners and occupiers have a legal duty under the Occupiers' Liability Act to take reasonable steps to keep their premises safe during winter weather, including salting, sanding, and clearing snow within a reasonable time after a weather event.

We see winter slip and fall accidents throughout Mississauga—in condominium parking garages in City Centre, outside restaurants in Port Credit, on office building sidewalks along Hurontario Street, and in the vast parking lots surrounding the city's shopping centres. These accidents can result in serious injuries including hip fractures, wrist fractures, spinal injuries, and traumatic brain injuries from striking the ground.

If you fell on ice or snow in Mississauga, it's critical to document the conditions as soon as possible and obtain weather records for the date in question. We can help you gather this evidence and determine whether the property owner met their duty of care.

The 10-Day Municipal Notice Requirement

If your slip and fall occurred on property maintained by the City of Mississauga—including public sidewalks, roads, parks, and municipal facilities—you must provide written notice to the city within 10 days of the accident under Section 44 of the Municipal Act. This is a strict deadline, and failing to meet it can bar your entire claim, regardless of how serious your injuries are.

The notice must include the date, time, and location of the accident, a description of the hazardous condition, and details of your injuries. If you've been injured on municipal property in Mississauga, contact a lawyer immediately to ensure this deadline is met.

When you contact UL Lawyers about a Mississauga slip and fall, here's what to expect:

This early action is critical to building a strong case.
