Slip & Fall / Trip & Fall Accidents

Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises safe. When they fail, people get hurt. If you were injured in a slip, trip, or fall due to a hazardous condition, you may have a valid premises liability claim. Our attorneys have the experience to prove negligence and recover the compensation you deserve.
What Makes a Slip or Trip & Fall Case Valid?
To succeed in a slip or trip and fall case in California, we generally must establish that:
-
The property owner owned, leased, or controlled the property,
-
The owner was negligent in maintaining or managing the property,
-
You were harmed, and
-
That negligence was a substantial factor in causing your harm.
Common Hazardous Conditions That Cause Falls
-
Wet or slippery floors without warning signs
-
Uneven or cracked sidewalks and walkways
-
Broken or missing handrails
-
Poor or inadequate lighting
-
Cluttered or obstructed walkways
-
Loose or damaged flooring, carpeting, or mats

Where These Accidents Commonly Occur
Retail Stores & Supermarkets
Spills, freshly mopped floors, and cluttered aisles are common hazards in grocery and retail environments. Stores have a duty to identify and correct these conditions promptly.
Apartment Complexes & Rental Properties
Landlords are responsible for maintaining common areas, stairways, and walkways in safe condition. Failure to do so may create significant liability.
Restaurants & Hotels
Wet entryways, slippery kitchen runoff, and uneven outdoor surfaces are frequent causes of serious falls in commercial hospitality settings.
Parking Lots & Sidewalks
Potholes, cracked asphalt, and improperly maintained walkways create dangerous conditions for pedestrians in parking areas.
