A negligent property owner may create a premises liability case.

Property owners are responsible for making sure their premises are reasonably safe for others, including visitors to a home, citizens walking along a city trail or sidewalk or customers of a business.  Property owners can be held responsible if another person is injured on the premises.  The legal term for these cases is premises liability.

Common examples of such accidents include tripping on an uneven sidewalk, slipping on a wet floor at a mall, or falling down crumbling steps.  These cases are generally known as slip and falls.

You may be entitled to compensation if you slip and fall on someone else's property because of someone else's negligence.  The attorneys at our firm fight to see that our clients get the maximum compensation they deserve.
