Sacramento Premises Liability Attorneys
If you have been hurt on a property other than your own, the landowner, land occupant or tenant may be responsible for your injuries under California premises liability law. To be eligible for compensation for your injuries, you must be able to demonstrate that the property owner or occupier had control of the property and also the condition that caused your injuries. Premises liability lawyers at Estey & Bomberger are experts in the area of premises liability law and claims, and can help you determine your eligibility for compensation.
Slip and Fall Accidents / Trip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall accidents and trip and fall accidents are one of the leading causes of injury-producing accidents. They can happen anywhere, including on private property, in public parks, in restaurants and shopping centers, supermarkets, streets and parking lots. Older individuals are especially susceptible to serious injury in a fall; hazardous conditions can contribute to numerous types of serious injury or even death.
Types of Slip and Fall Accidents
Slip and fall and trip and fall accidents can be either same level falls or elevated falls. Same level falls can occur when a person trips, such as on an uneven curb, and falls forward, or when a person slips, such as on a oily surface, and falls backward. Same level falls happen more often than elevated falls and are usually less severe. Elevated falls, which occur less frequently than same level falls, include falls from ladders, loading docks, stairwells, scaffolding, cranes and other heights.
Causes of Slip and Fall Accidents
Property owners and tenants are not always responsible for someone slipping or tripping on something that could reasonably have expected to be there or was obvious, i.e. a large tree. However, a property owner does have a responsibility to take care of their property, which includes keeping it reasonably safe. If the owner or occupier knew about a condition, but did nothing to fix it or warn others, or if the owner should have known, they may be liable for injuries caused by:
- Adverse weather conditions (ice, snow, or rain)
- Broken glass
- Hazardous obstructions on the floor or walkway
- Unlit or unmarked pathways or stairs
- Potholes
- Rippled carpet
- Slippery tiling
- Uncovered manholes
- Unbalanced flooring
- Unmaintained landscaping
- Uneven sidewalks
Other Types of Premises Liability Accidents
Some types of construction accidents and pedestrian accidents may potentially be covered under premises liability law, depending on the circumstances. Along with slip and fall and trip and fall accidents, premises liability accidents also include:
- Amusement park accidents
- Accidents caused by falling objects
- Animal attacks
- Dog bites
- Security-Related Accidents (Assault and Battery)
- Building collapses
Premises Liability Accident Injuries
Premises liability injuries can range in severity from minor to catastrophic and permanently disabling, including but not limited to the following types of injuries:
- Ankle injury
- Back injury
- Brain injury
- Broken bones
- Burn injury
- Head injury
- Neck injury
- Spinal cord injury
- Other catastrophic injury
- Wrongful death
Compensation for your injuries may include damages for your time away from work, medical care and expenses, pain and suffering and other accident related expenses. If the property owner or tenant willfully or intentionally caused your injuries, you may also be entitled to punitive damages.
