When Are Property Owners Responsible?
Not all injuries that take place on someone else’s property afford that victim the right to obtain compensation in a lawsuit. For example, if they slide down a staircase handrail and hurt themselves in the process, they would have a difficult time proving that the property owner’s negligence caused their injury.
On the other hand, if the stairway had a broken handrail that cut the person's hand open, the property owner would likely be held responsible.
Other instances of premises liability could include:
- Insufficient lighting in a parking lot
- Poorly maintained sidewalks
- Lack of visible warnings for dangerous conditions
- Dirty conditions that obscure a person’s ability to avoid potentially injurious areas
- Dog bites
- Slippery floors
- Swimming pool accidents
