Slip and Fall Accident Lawyer Huntsville

Premises liability arises when you are injured on someone else’s property, such as at the home of a neighbor, the local supermarket, or even a local park, as a result of hazardous conditions ranging from slippery floors, to defective machinery or other hidden dangers.

​

Some of the most common causes of injuries include:

• Floors and walkways that are slippery, cracked or unevenly surfaced, poorly lit, or littered with debris.

• Malfunctioning equipment, ranging from smoke detectors and railings to exposed wires and faulty elevators.

• Inadequate security precautions, such as broken locks, insufficient access restriction, and a lack of visible supervision, can enable criminals to prey upon guests or visitors.

​

When you visit somebody else’s property, what responsibilities does the property owner have regarding your safety?

Property owners and managers should:

1. Inspect and monitor the property for any dangerous conditions, which may injure a visitor or guest.

2. Repair and/or eliminate the dangerous conditions as soon as possible.

3. Post warnings which put visitors and guests on notice about any existing dangerous conditions.
