Business or Commercial Property Accidents
Hazards including spills, clutter, shoddy construction, or neglect can lead to premises liability accidents. Proof that the property owner was aware of the hazard and neglected to take appropriate action is necessary for injuries resulting from slipping, tripping, falling, or falling objects.
Rental Property Accidents
If a renter slips and falls on the property, the landlord may be held accountable if they caused or were aware of the hazard but failed to correct it.
Sidewalks
Slips and falls on sidewalks can occur as a result of icy conditions, cracks, or snow. State laws determine responsibility. Homeowners may be held accountable if they were aware of the hazard but failed to address it. Alternatively, local governments may be liable for sidewalk maintenance and may face legal action if they fail to make repairs.
Stairs
Slips, trips, and falls on steps are common. Property owners are generally liable if they caused the hazard, knew about it, or failed to repair it. The plaintiff must show the owner’s negligence, and contributory negligence by the injured party will also be considered by insurers or the court.
Government Property
Liability for injuries sustained as a result of a fall on government property may be determined by state personal injury statutes. Some states restrict litigation against government agencies. If authorized, the aggrieved party must establish government negligence. Specifically, the government was in charge of managing the region, knew or should have known about the hazard, and failed to take reasonable precautions to mitigate it.
