Getting You Back on Your Feet Again
Slip and fall accidents are usually governed by premises liability law. To recover compensation with this type of personal injury claim, you have to be able to prove:
- That an agent or employee of the property owner created a hazardous condition;
- That the owner knew of a defect or a dangerous condition but did not fix it or provide adequate warnings
- Or, that the condition had existed long enough that the property owner should have known about it and done something to protect you from harm
These requirements tilt the playing field heavily in favor of property owners. In real terms, this means that if you have been injured in an accident on a private, public or commercial property — you will need experienced legal help to protect your rights.
