A Property Owner May Have Failed You
Whether you are the injured party or are representing a loved one, a property owner may have failed in a way that qualifies as negligence. A property owner must keep their premises free from slipping hazards or risk causing harm to victims like you.
Some of the slipping hazards that a property owner may have failed to remove are:
- Puddles and slick flooring caused by rain
- Spilled liquids
- Loose flooring tiles or carpet
- Uneven flooring or stairs
- Freshly mopped flooring
Ways a Property Owner Could Be Negligent
Property owners must take many precautions to prevent visitors on their premises from slipping and injuring themselves. The owner could be negligent because they did not take precautionary measures, such as:
- Training employees on how to spot and address slipping hazards
- Teaching employees the importance of preventing and removing slipping hazards
- Employing individuals dedicated specifically to property safety
- Conducting routine safety checks
- Using technology like video cameras to monitor the property
- Ensuring the property is up to code
- Installing flooring that presents a low risk of slipping
- Alerting visitors to slipping hazards that cannot be immediately removed, such as freshly washed tile
A property owner may have failed you or your loved one in one or more ways. A lawyer from the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine will seek compensation from any parties who put you at risk.
