People are injured and killed every day as a result of dangerous conditions in buildings or other manmade hazards. We have handled many types of dangerous premises cases. Another area of litigation involves claims against hotels, casinos, shopping centers and other businesses who are aware of potential hazards, yet do nothing about it, resulting in injury to visitors.

Each type of case is different, as liability may involve building, electrical or other safety codes or simply whether the landowner knew or should have known of the dangerous condition on the property. These cases can be difficult because the other side usually wants to blame the victim. The focus should also be on the responsibility of a landowner or landlord to make its premises safe by taking care of foreseeable risks.

Some of the most common causes of slips, trips and falls resulting in a personal injury are:

• Sidewalk deviations
• Defective stairways or ramps
• Potholes in parking lots
• Liquid or foreign substance on floors
• Accumulation of snow and ice

Usually, a property owner can only be considered negligent if he or she had knowledge that this condition existed before the slip and fall occurred, and did nothing to correct it.

Gather as much information pertaining to the accident (names, dates, addresses, evidence of physical defects to property).
