CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Determining Fault and Liability

In order for a property owner or landlord to be liable for your injuries, they must have done something in order to cause or permit a dangerous condition to exist—sometimes, regardless of whether they knew of the condition. The property owner’s responsibility comes from what they did to ensure the safety of the area.

Determining liability means taking into account many factors surrounding the circumstances and situation. Some of the most important when determining liability are:

The length of time the dangerous condition existed.
How the property owner knew or should have known about it.
Was there a system in place to verify the safety of the property on a regular basis?

Was there a better way to ensure the property’s safety?
Should a sign have indicated the presence of a dangerous condition?
Should there have been better lighting?

Documentation and Evidence

As always, documentation of any type is important to prove your slip and fall or premises liability case. With smartphones in everyone’s pockets, it’s never been easier to take photographs and audio recordings, and make copies of documents.

Err on the side of caution and try to collect as much evidence as you can at or near the time the injury occurs. The amount of evidence collected is generally directly related to the likelihood and speed of your recovery.
