Slip and fall accidents often happen without warning, but the conditions that cause them are rarely sudden. Habbas & Associates helps individuals in Rocklin understand what led to the fall and what can be done next.
What a Slip and Fall Claim Actually Involves
Slip and fall cases fall under premises liability, meaning they are based on whether a property owner failed to maintain reasonably safe conditions. To move forward with a claim, it must be shown that:
- A hazardous condition existed
- The property owner knew or reasonably should have known about it
- The condition was not addressed within a reasonable timeframe
- The hazard directly caused the injury
Each of these elements must be supported by evidence to establish a clear connection between the condition and the harm.
