San Diego Slip and Fall Lawyer
Premises liability, or "slip and fall" injury, encompasses many things such as slipping on the sidewalk or a rug, a steep or broken step, lack of a handrail, a hole in the ground or carelessly maintained grounds. Property owners have the responsibility of keeping their premises safe for guests, making sure no dangerous conditions exist. Failure to properly maintain grounds can result in an injury, making property owners liable for any damage that is done.
Slip and Fall Lawyers in our San Diego law firm have many years of experience proving negligence on the part of property owners and obtaining settlements on behalf of our clients.
In order to recover damages in a premises liability case, you must be able to prove that the property owner knew or should have known about the hazardous condition on their property. Sometimes, proving a property owner's liability in a slip and fall accident can be difficult. Hiring our San Diego slip and fall attorneys can greatly increase your chances of recovering the money you deserve for your injuries and damages.
Business or Guests
People that are invited to a property for business purposes, either as a client, customer, repairman or any other designated reason, have the right to expect the property to be reasonably maintained for their safety. When property owners are negligent in their maintenance or fail to warn people of potential hazards, the property owner may be liable for any injuries sustained by individuals with business purposes.
When people have been invited or given consent to be on a person's property for matters other than business, they are considered guests. While it is not necessary for property owners to conduct a thorough investigation of their property for potential hazards to their guests, if a property owner is aware of a danger on their property, they must provide proper warning to their guests. Failure to warn guests of potential dangers and hazards on the property can make a property owner liable for injuries their guests sustain as a result of the unattended hazard.
