Property Owners Have a Duty to Keep the Property in a Reasonably Safe Condition

If you’re a property owner or a business operator you have a duty to keep the property in a reasonably safe condition. Unfortunately, countless property owners and store operators have (i) conditions within their property that are unsafe, (ii) that they are aware of the unsafe condition or (iii) they fail to take steps to correct the unsafe condition. Such factors may establish a case for a personal injury claim. Common examples of these uncorrected tripping hazards include:

Proving a Property Owner’s or Manger’s Negligence

Property owners and store operators have insurance coverage that will compensate you for your injuries. However the process involved in proving that the owners and operators were negligent is quite complicated. The victim must prove that the property owner or manager’s negligence or recklessness led them to suffer a significant injury which makes slip and call cases the most difficult personal injury cases to prove in court. Our law firm has ongoing relationships with numerous safety experts and former safety compliance officers that will help us thoroughly investigate your accident to determine what safety codes or standards were not met and how the accident was preventable and gather important evidence that links your injury to the property owner’s or manager’s neglect to determine if there is a cause of action for your claim

Because conditions at these properties can change quickly it is important that you contact an attorney as soon as possible following an accident, as thorough investigation of the details is absolutely critical to your case. Weather conditions can change and lighting conditions and tripping hazards can be corrected in the hours and days following your fall so you need to act quickly.
