Midwood Slip and Fall Lawyer
The lack of intent in a slip and fall accident does not guarantee the property owner is immune from civil liability. If you suffered an injury because they didn’t address a dangerous hazard, you could benefit from a free consultation with our team of Midwood slip and fall lawyers.
Slip and fall lawsuits can be complicated. In many cases, the property owner will argue they were unaware of the hazard or took reasonable steps to address it. Taking on these cases without an experienced team of slip and fall lawyers can put you at a dangerous disadvantage. If you are ready to even the playing field, contact us at Douglas & London today.
Where slip and fall accidents happen
A slip and fall injury can happen anywhere– on private property or public land. In any event, the failure to address a dangerous hazard could lead to a valid injury claim. Some common areas include:
- Sidewalks
- Shops
- Grocery Stores
- Private homes
- Office buildings
- Parks
- Government buildings
It is important to understand that not every fall will lead to a successful claim. If the hazard responsible for your injury was open and obvious, the property owner could argue you were on notice and should have avoided it.
The amount of time a property owner or manager has to address a hazard is also important. For example, someone spills a drink in the grocery store, and seconds later, you slip and fall. This would probably not be a valid claim. However, if you fell because someone dropped a jar of jelly, an hour earlier, you have a strong claim because the manager had a reasonable amount of time to address it.
