Chula Vista Slip and Fall Lawyer

California slip and fall accidents can result in injuries such as scrapes and minor fractures or very serious conditions such as traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), spinal cord injuries (SCIs), and broken bones. When a slip and fall accident occurs due to someone’s negligence, premises liability law can provide those injured with the compensation they need to pay their medical bills and lost income.

If you have been injured in a California slip and fall accident, contact a Chula Vista slip and fall lawyer to discuss your situation. Let a compassionate trip and fall attorney review your legal options and help you to determine the best course of action.

Liability in a Slip and Fall Accidents

Premises liability laws differentiate between whether a property owner (or the person who has control of the property) owes someone a duty to keep the premises safe or to warn of known dangers.

Liability in a California slip and fall accident generally depends on why the injured party was on the property. Essentially, anyone on someone else’s property can be classified as an invitee, a licensee, or a trespasser:

  • Invitees are invited guests and generally include friends, family, and neighbors who have either specifically been invited to the property. They can also include those whose presence is impliedly accepted (such as an open invitation to stop over when in the area). In these situations, the owner (or the person who has control of the property) has a duty to keep the property reasonably safe.
  • Licensees are those on the property for their own financial purposes such as house maintenance workers and contractors who have express or implied permission to enter it. In these situations, the owner (or the person who has control of the property) only has a duty to warn of dangerous conditions that may create an unreasonable risk of harm.
  • Trespassers do not have permission to be on the property. While there is generally no duty created to warn, children are an exception in situations where the property has potentially dangerous conditions such as large holes, swimming pools, or machinery that are easily accessible and may attract children.
