Anyone who owns property meant for other people’s use has a responsibility to keep the property free from dangers. If they fail to do so, and people suffer serious injuries, the property owners may be liable for any medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages that result.Jersey City Slip and Fall Lawyer Brian Freeman of the Freeman Law Center, LLC helps people throughout northern New Jersey who have suffered in a slip and fall injury.

What Kind of Cases Make for Valid Claims?
When a person is using someone else’s property in the intended fashion, and ends up injured, it may result in a lawsuit. If, for example, a slippery surface on the floor of a store causes a fall and a back injury or head injury, the injured person may be able to file a lawsuit. The elderly are particularly vulnerable to slip and fall injuries, and organizations catering to seniors must take extra precautions.Some slip and fall injuries are not covered by premises liability laws. Work related injuries, for example, are covered by workers’ compensation. And the laws are complex when it comes to icy surfaces or uneven sidewalks. If you are unsure whether you have a case, it is best to just ask a knowledgeable attorney.
What is Premises Liability?
Premises liability is the legal term for the obligations property owners have to compensate people who have suffered injuries because of negligent maintenance of their property. Many premises liability cases involve slip and fall injuries, but it may involve other situations. To learn more about the laws surrounding slip and fall injuries, visit our slip and fall page.

“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “After a slip and fall accident, you should seek immediate medical attention, take photos of the hazardous condition that caused your fall, and report the incident to the property owner or manager.

{
“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “How is negligence proven in a slip and fall case?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “To prove negligence in a slip and fall case, we must show that the property owner knew or should have known about a dangerous condition on their property and failed to fix it or provide adequate warning. This is often accomplished by proving ‘actual notice’ or ‘constructive notice’ of the hazard.”

“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,

{
“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “Can I still get compensation if I was partially at fault for the fall?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,
“text”: “New Jersey follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means that if you are found to be 50% or less at fault for your accident, you can still recover damages, but your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. An attorney can help you fight for the maximum compensation possible.”

{
“@type”: “Question”,

“acceptedAnswer”: {
“@type”: “Answer”,

{
“@type”: “Question”,
“name”: “What is ‘premises liability’?”,
“acceptedAnswer”: {
