Overview

Property Owners and their Responsibility

According to the law, slip and fall lawsuits come under the broader category of premises liability, which also includes inadequate security lawsuits. Inadequate security specifically refers to the responsibility that property owners have to provide enough security within their buildings or facilities to prevent assaults.

orlando injury attorneysAs simple as they may seem, a slip or fall can be very hazardous and will require representation by an Orlando premises liability attorney who has experience in slip and fall cases. This area of personal injury witnesses thousands of injuries every year in the US. A near invisible crack or a small amount of soapy water can leave a victim in a wheelchair or with a permanent spinal cord injury. There are many layers to premises liability and the law that encompassed slip and fall injuries. It can become very complicated when trying to clarify fault, and determining whether conditions were indeed hazardous.

Typically we take for granted that homeowners, business or property owners, and even the city, will maintain their property and the related sidewalks, peripherals and streets in a manner that is safe for us and for our families. We expect that any hazards will be addressed in a reasonable and timely manner or, if necessary, effectively closed off. When owners do not properly address dangerous property conditions, then residents, customers, clients, and the general public are at risk. If someone slips or falls, and suffers injury due to the negligence of a property owner, a personal injury claim can cover their losses, injuries and damages. To learn about your rights in a slip and fall case or a premises liability matter, contact an Orlando personal injury attorney today.
