Premises Liability (Slip and Fall)
Despite their name, Slip and Fall cases can relate to any injury sustained from avoidable hazards in an area
It is a property manager’s responsibility to ensure that their premises are safe for people to access, or are inaccessible if they are unsafe. When someone gets hurt due to a preventable hazard, the property manager should be held responsible for their injuries.
Serious injuries can occur when someone slips, trips or falls. Common conditions that cause a slip and fall are:
- Accumulation of Ice or Snow
- Defective Staircases or Railings
- Wet Floors
- Oily Floors
- Hidden Extension Cords
- Unsecured rugs or Carpets
- Loose or Broken Floors, Sidewalks, Steps, or Stairs
