QUESTIONS & ANSWERS ABOUT PERSONAL INJURY CASES
Question: What happens if I'm hurt on somebodies property?
Injuries from accidents occur in many different settings. Sometimes the injuries arise from an automobile or motorcycle accident, other times they may occur as the result of a dangerous condition on another person's property or perhaps from the use of a product which malfunctions or is improperly designed. In the worst of circumstances, injuries can result in the wrongful death of a person leaving behind surviving family members to deal with the emotional and financial losses caused by the wrongful death.

Answer
Just like with automobiles, property owners carry liability insurance to protect them in the event someone is injured while on their property. These types of accidents are commonly referred to as "slip and fall" cases. Injuries can happen from such things as slippery areas caused by bad weather, open trenching or holes on the property, or inadequate lighting resulting in an area being unsafe because dangerous conditions are hidden in darkness. The owner of the property is required by law to exercise reasonable care for the protection of persons invited upon the property.
