How Can I Prove Premises Liability in Carlsbad?
Under Civil Code selection 1714(a), Californians must exercise due care to avoid injuring others. For property owners, that means keeping their property safe to prevent the risk of foreseeable injuries to others. In maintaining their property, they must act as a reasonably prudent property owner would in similar circumstances. Some common premises liability injuries include:
- Slip and fall on a recent spill in a store
- Tripping on elevated and uneven sidewalks and walkways
- Falls that occur due to lack of adequate lighting
- Falling down the stairs
The possible accidents that can be considered premises liability are vast. In any event, property owners owe a duty to the general public to keep their property safe. Failure to do so can cause serious harm to others that could have easily been avoided with the proper maintenance and precautions.
Residential Vs. Commercial Premises Liability
Commercial property owners, like business owners, must ensure their customers can use their facilities safely. This duty requires property owners to diligently monitor their premises for potential hazards like wet floors, loose merchandise on the floor, uneven surfaces, and security breaches that can potentially cause harm to their customers. If the land owner and the tenant are different entities, including them in your lawsuit is essential.
Residential premises liability involves one individual being injured on another’s residential property. If you are injured on another’s property, you can take legal action against the person or entity who owns, occupies, or controls the property. Examples of residential premises liability cases include dog bites, slips and falls, and swimming pool accidents.
