About Summit, NJ

Summit is a city in Union County, New Jersey, originally formed as Summit Township in 1869 from portions of New Providence Township (today Berkeley Heights) and Springfield Township. Summit is believed to have gotten its name from Summit Lodge, the home to which jurist James Kent retired to after serving as Columbia College’s first professor of law and as chief justice of the supreme court in New York. Summit was later reincorporated as a city in 1899. Throughout the 19th century, Summit shifted its character away from being a farmland community to a residential area for wealthy New Yorkers, who looked to build estates outside the city. Summit has maintained this character to this day. In the 2000 Census, Summit was ranked as having the 16th highest per capita income in the state of New Jersey. In 2019, Bloomberg named Summit the 65th wealthiest community in America by average household income.

Frequently Asked Questions about Summit, NJ Slip and Fall Accidents

If I slip and fall on someone else’s property am I automatically entitled to compensation from the property or business owner?

Not necessarily. In order to have a viable slip and fall accident claim, you will need to show that the property or business owner owed you a duty of care, that this duty was breached, and that you suffered an injury and compensable damages as a result of this breach. In many slip-and-fall cases, it is necessary to prove that the property or business owner had the responsibility to maintain or remedy a condition on the property that caused your accident and that the owner had a reasonable opportunity to actually maintain or remedy the condition. For example, if a customer of a store or restaurant spills a liquid on the ground and you slip and fall on it a minute later, the owner can claim that it did not have sufficient opportunity to discover and clean up the spill and therefore is not liable for your accident.

What should I do after a slip and fall accident?

If you suffer a slip and fall accident, the first thing you should do is inform the property owner or business owner of your accident. This will put the owner on notice of your accident and allow the owner to notify its insurance or risk management company; if, for example, your accident occurs on commercial property, the owner will also know to preserve important evidence, such as surveillance video. Next, you should try to take photos or videos of the accident scene, including whatever it was that caused your fall, whether there were any warning signs, whether anything was blocking your view of the hazard, and lighting conditions and (if applicable) weather conditions. You should also seek medical attention as soon as possible after your accident to identify any injuries you may have suffered.
