Injured In An Accident?
Home > Premises Liability
Injuries Can Happen Anywhere, Anytime. When They Do, I’m Here To Help.
- It can be something as simple as a landlord failing to repair a staircase or replace lighting. Or something as obvious as supermarket management not responding to a liquid spill and letting it sit there…and sit there…and sit there.
- There’s no one typical property negligence claim (known as premises liability) because trip-and-fall and slip-and-fall accidents can truly happen anywhere. The unfortunate thing is that it doesn’t take much for unsafe conditions to cause an accident that leaves someone severely injured.
- Dangerous premises can be especially hazardous for children and the elderly – anyone who either can’t recognize dangers or is more likely to suffer traumatic injuries. No matter what your condition was at the time of the accident, however, you don’t have to suffer the financial consequences of a property owner’s negligence.
- My Orange County firm, Frank Nicholas, A Law Corporation, handles a wide range of premises liability claims involving private property owners who fail to maintain safe conditions, leading to serious accidents. These can include:
- Hazardous construction debris
- Unattended-to liquid spills
- Electrical hazards
- Inadequate lighting or other safety equipment
You might think that you can only recover for the actual medical costs associated with your injuries. However, as an experienced slip-and-fall attorney, I, Frank Nicholas, can also fight to get you compensation for other financial losses, including missed work and pain and suffering.
Slip And Fall Accidents Attorney
Slip, trip and fall injuries are a type of “premises liability” claim. We must prove that the property owner or manager either caused, failed to prevent and/or failed to repair, a dangerous condition. A slip, trip and fall injury can occur anywhere, such as a grocery store, hotel, restaurant, apartment, the street/sidewalk, etc. If you slipped, tripped and fell due to a dangerous condition, such as a wet floor, broken flooring, faulty rug or mat, or something similar, you may have a case against the property owner and/or manager. We have to prove “notice”, i.e., that the owner/manager either caused the danger, or knew or should have known about it and failed to fix/correct it.
A Personal Attorney For Dangerous Conditions
- Most premises liability cases are based on negligence. We must prove that the property owner or manager was negligent in not preventing or repairing a dangerous condition to maintain a safe property for others. We also have to prove “notice”, i.e., that the owner/manager knew, or should have known, of the dangerous condition before the injury. A dangerous condition at a premises can include injuries from:
- Slip, Trip or Fall
