  1. Responsibility for Slip and Falls Lawsuit Funding

  2. How can you prove the responsibility, in case there is any? Here you can see some considerations that you need to know about and keep count of:

  3. Reason of device or instrument Some instruments are positioned in the places they are for a specific reason. For example, drainage entrances are installed in order to make sure that the space will not be flooded during times when it rains.

  4. You need to understand that the owner or property manager cannot be considered guilty in case the heel of your shoe gets stuck in the floor or draining gate and you fall.

  5. Normal incidences Gravity is used to explain why liquids leak on the floor and why items fall on the floor. This is something completely normal to happen and in certain cases only, the property owner or the manager cannot be made responsible for failing to instantly wipe up or pick up everything that leaks or falls on the floor.

  6. Our responsibility Every individual in person has the responsibility to pay attention and care where they are going. For example, in case you are reading a book and you stumble on the stairs, then it is quite difficult to blame the mall owner about your situation.

  7. In case the property owner can show evidence that they were careful and tried to prevent such types of falls and stumbles and that a person could have seen the obstacle in case they have been more careful, them it may become quite difficult for you to prove their responsibility.

  8. Additionally, if you were absentminded, inattentive or running when you stumbled, that it may be impossible for you to prove that the owner is responsible for it.

  9. Owner’s responsibility Things change if the owner or their employees know about an unsafe surface, case in which they have the responsibility of taking immediate action about it.

  10. The owner has the responsibility to have a rational person to rely on, who should look for and find any potential threats and either report them or repair them if this is possible.

  11. In order that responsibility to be assumed to the owner, it must be proven that the owner or one of the employees must have caused the slippery surface, such as for example by torn or spill caused by them, that caused the slip or fall of the injured victim.
