A property owner that fails to keep their property safe may be held liable for their negligence if an accident occurs on their watch.

How to Prove Liability in a Slip & Fall Case

In a slip and fall case, it is generally presumed that the property owner or premises manager should be held liable for keeping the property free from hazards. A slip and fall case is similar to a premises liability case and is usually handled the same.

In proving liability, the following elements need to be proven:

The unsafe area must have been caused by the owner, premises manager, or employee.
The owner failed to follow the actions of what a “reasonable person” would have done in the same situation.
The responsible party knew about the dangers and failed to make it fix them.
