There are several different manners that personal injury attorneys can use to prove liability in slip and fall cases. The essential methods of proving liability involve:
- Showing that the owner created the condition that caused the accident;
- Showing that the owner knew about the dangerous condition and neglected to correct it; or
- Showing dangerous condition had been there for so long the owner should have known about it and fixed it.
Proving liability may be a daunting task, and the best option in a slip and fall case is to have a qualified personal injury attorney working on your behalf. The unique details in each case must be studied carefully to determine the best way to approach the case.
The only way a person is able to recover money from a slip and fall case is that there must actually be a responsible party that had been negligent, and the negligence was the cause of the injuries.
