More Than Just A Slip-And-Fall
Many people believe that dangerous property cases also known as premises liability under the law, are just minor slip-and-fall incidents in a store and they are nothing serious. This misconception can be dangerous. Even a slight tumble can result in severe injuries, including broken bones or a brain injury. Dangerous property cases must include some form of dangerous condition, such as:
- Weather-related conditions like snow or ice on driveways, parking lots and sidewalks
- Criminal or other violent activity
- Improperly designed or built buildings
- Inadequate lighting
- Inadequate security
- Exposure to toxic chemicals or other substances
Any of these situations may endanger visitors and guests. All property owners have a duty to avoid adding any unreasonable risks to their property. This means that it’s the property owner’s responsibility to ensure their property is danger-free and follows all regulations and guidelines.
Where Can These Accidents Happen?
A personal injury can happen anywhere, but for it to be considered a dangerous property case, there must be proof that the property owner was negligent. In many cases, the following types of venues may be responsible for a serious injury.
- Grocery or retail stores
- Shopping malls
- Amusement parks
- Sports stadiums
- Concert venues
- Swimming pools
- Hotels
When an accident occurs at a property that’s not up to standard or code, the property owner, business owner, homeowner or landlord may be liable for your injuries, and you may deserve legal compensation. Premises liability cases can be complex, but our lawyer will work closely with you to build a strong case against negligent property owners.
What Types Of Injuries Are Eligible For A Lawsuit?
Dangerous property accidents can result in a variety of injuries from minor to severe. Many people often overlook small cuts and scrapes after a fall and don’t pursue a claim, but you may still be entitled to compensation despite the size or severity of your injury.
Some common injuries in these cases include:
- Brain injuries
- Broken bones
- Burns
- Animal bites
- Toxic chemical exposure
No matter the type of injury you sustained on someone else’s dangerous property, you have a right to hold them accountable for your accident.
