Slip & Fall Accidents/Premises Liability

When an individual is hurt or injured due to unsafe building or property conditions, he may be entitled to file a claim to recover damages and hold the building or property owners liable for negligence. Whether an injury accident occurs in a department store, grocery store or even at your local public park, standards of care exist for maintaining property. Slip and fall or slip, trip and falls are the most common accidents involving premises liability.

Types of premises liability cases include:

•    Dog bites/animal attacks
•    Exposure to toxic substances
•    Swimming pool drowning/accidents
•    Falling trees/objects
•    Inadequate security to prevent criminal assault (lack of lights/surveillance)
•    Dangerous amusement park rides
•    Fires (resulting from building-code violations)

Do I Have a Case?

When you suffer serious injuries in a slip and fall or other type of premises liability accident, you may have grounds for a claim, if you can prove the property owner:

•    Was aware of the hazardous condition
•    Failed to correct the condition, thereby causing injury
•    Owed you a legal duty to exercise reasonable care.
