First and foremost, seek the medical attention you need so that you recover as soon as possible and get back to your day to day activities.
Additionally, it’s important to take pictures of any property defects as soon as possible because you want to be able to memorialize the way the property was at the time of the event. You can’t wait too long because the owner could cure the defect and there may be little or no evidence going forward to support your description of the hazardous property.
For example, if you have a railing that it is off the wall, get a picture of it. If you have stairs that are broken, carpet that is upturned, or puddles – no matter what the defect is, get a picture of it as soon as possible, before it gets fixed and disappears.
