Seattle Slip and Fall Accidents, Injuries and Claims
A slip and fall injury can lead to a premises liability claim, which can then lead to the property owner (or the property owner’s insurance company) paying compensation to the person who was injured. Following are some ways that a Seattle premises liability attorney may be able to prove the liability of the property owner in a slip and fall case:
- The property owner knew about the hazardous situation and failed to correct it in a timely manner.
- The property owner caused the condition which led to your slip and fall.
- The hazardous condition existed for such an extended period of time that he or she should have discovered and fixed it.
Your lawyer will also have to prove that you were exercising reasonable caution when you were walking, so you were not at all responsible.
