Slip-And-Fall Lawyer Helps To Prove Owner Negligence

Property owners are expected to take reasonable precautions in keeping their building safe. Although some hazards cannot be avoided, such as tripping on drainage grates or expecting a spill to be cleaned up a second after it happens, there are many instances where injury does occur as a direct result of negligence.

For example, if there is a spill or some other hazard on the floor that the property owner neglects to deal with even after they’ve been made aware of it, then they can be held liable for injuries that occur as a result.  This is even truer if the hazard was directly caused by the owner.

Sometimes the hazard results from a damage or defect that the owner was aware of but failed to fix. Large cracks or holes in the floor, for example, or perhaps loose carpet or tile. If reasonable steps could have been taken to correct the problem, then the owner could be held responsible.

Maybe objects were placed or dropped on the floor and an extended period of time passed with no effort to pick them up. If someone then trips on those objects and gets hurt, the judge and jury could find the owner negligent.

The question that will be addressed to the victim is whether or not they were careless in their own behavior. In other words, did the pain result primarily from the careless behavior of the victim or negligence of the homeowner.

Compensation For Pain And Suffering

The reality is that people have every reason to expect to be safe when they are entering someone else’s property. Many slip-and-fall accidents happen to people who are just going about their business and doing nothing careless. In such cases, it is reasonable to expect compensation to cover medical expenses, to make up for lost wages, or simply as a punitive response to negligent behavior.
