Slipping, tripping, and falling can often lead to severe and long-term injuries. However, these types of premises liability claims can be challenging to prove. While many assume a property owner is automatically responsible for accidents that occur on their property, the law requires clear proof of negligence—making these among the most complex personal injury cases to pursue and win.

Being injured on another person’s property does not automatically make that property owner liable. To succeed in a claim, you must prove that the owner failed to provide or maintain safe premises, created dangerous conditions, or neglected to correct known hazards.

Because premises liability and slip and fall cases involve detailed legal standards and strict timelines, contacting an experienced attorney as soon as possible is essential. A prompt and thorough investigation is often critical—evidence must be preserved, and witnesses interviewed before the hazardous condition is changed or removed.

What Can Cause a Slip & Fall

Many hazardous conditions can lead to a slip and fall accident, including spilled liquids; inadequate lighting or security; broken handrails on stairs or porches; collapsing floors, walls, or roofs; falling objects; uneven sidewalks or curbs; potholes or holes in parking lots; algae or ice on walkways; loose carpeting; construction defects; wet or slippery floors; and unsafe swimming pool areas. Any property condition that violates safety or building codes can increase the risk of serious injury.

Common injuries resulting from slip and fall accidents include fractures and broken bones, back and spinal injuries, bruises and lacerations, soft tissue damage, whiplash, neck or wrist sprains, and injuries requiring surgery or long-term rehabilitation.

Negligent Security

Negligent security claims arise when a property owner fails to provide adequate safety measures, leading to preventable assaults or crimes. These cases often involve apartment complexes, office buildings, nightclubs, parking lots, or other businesses open to the public. Even though not all violent incidents can be prevented, property owners with a known history of safety issues must implement reasonable security to protect guests and tenants. If you were injured in an attack or assault on another’s property, it is important to speak with a knowledgeable negligent security attorney as soon as possible to understand your legal options.
