Virginia Slip and Fall Accident Attorney
(Premises Liability)

If you have been injured as a result of unsafe property or building conditions, you may have a right to make a claim for your damages against the owner of the property. Property owners have a “duty of care” to see that their property is safe or to provide adequate warning of the unsafe condition. This includes ensuring that the building has no structural defects that could cause an accident, both inside and out.

All slip and fall accidents are covered by negligence law and deal with the concept of premises liability. So, when a property owner does not exercise reasonable care in maintaining their property or warning people of potential hazards on the property, they may be responsible for any injuries caused as a result of their negligence. Property owners are not responsible for injuries caused by accidents that a reasonable person should have been able to avoid.

Proving a property owner’s liability in a slip and fall accident can be difficult. You must prove that the property owner knew or should have known about the poor condition of the property and did nothing about it or the property owner should have known about the poor condition if they were properly maintaining the property. An experienced attorney should be able to help you gather the evidence you need to recover money damages from a negligent property owner.
