The most common premises liability cases are slip/trip and fall cases. A lot of times it didn’t just happen because you were “not paying attention.” No, it is likely that it happened because the property owner was negligent in maintaining the premises. Now, you have suffered injuries, the medical bills continue to pile up, you are missing days from work, and it seems like your life is at a halt. You have every right to speak with a dedicated personal injury lawyer concerning how that property owner’s negligence has had a negative impact on your life.
It is no secret that dangerous and/or hazardous conditions can lead to some of the worst injuries. Property owners have a responsibility to ensure that their properties are maintained in a safe manner. Further, property owners are responsible to warn others of any unsafe conditions on their property. Since they are the owners of property, they are typically more familiar with any hazardous condition that a guest would otherwise not expect. Even though there are these expectations of property owners, too often they fail their duties, and in turn dangerous accidents and serious injuries take place.

The should have known standard typically considers how long the dangerous condition has existed; for instance, if ice has been present for several days, it suggests the owner should have noticed it. Proving notice can be complex, making it crucial to hire a knowledgeable premises liability attorney in Connecticut.
