AWARDS & ACCOLADES
WHERE DO SLIP-AND-FALL ACCIDENTS OCCUR
Slips and falls can happen in a variety of places. Where the slip and fall occurs will help determine which party or parties are liable for your injuries.
Residential Property
If you have been injured on someone’s property, then the property owner or the landlord could be held liable if the following four conditions are met:
- The property owner or landlord had known or should have known about the danger which caused the slip and fall
- The property owner or landlord should have repaired the dangerous condition
- The serious accident should have been foreseeable by the property owner or landlord
- Because the property owner or landlord failed to fix the condition, the victim slipped and fell
Commercial Property
A business owner, property owner or an employee of a business could be responsible for a slip and fall if these three conditions are met:
- One or more of the above parties created the condition which caused the victim to slip and fall
- One or more of the above parties knew about the condition but failed to do anything to fix it
- One or more of the above parties should have known about the condition and repaired it because a reasonable individual would have found out about it and fixed it before someone could be hurt
Government Property
Slip-and-fall injuries that occur on a government-owned property are more complex and require the expert handling of an experienced Glendale slip and fall attorney. Statutory laws, what qualifies as a branch of government or organization, and rules for filing a claim may all impact your ability to sue.
