PROVING LIABILITY IN A MADERA SLIP AND FALL LAWSUIT

Accidents can occur in a variety of settings, such as commercial, residential or governmental buildings. Slips and falls often result from dangerous conditions like wet floors, uneven surfaces, or hidden hazards. Slip and fall claims in Madera are part of premises liability law involving property owner and occupant accountability for another’s injuries on the property. To obtain compensation, our slip & fall attorneys in Madera must show that:

  • The property owner, employees or others on the premises created the condition
  • They knew or should have known about the condition, and
  • They failed to fix or warn others about it

Liability for an accident may not always be apparent. Sometimes, a service provider, government entity, or parent company may be accountable for your injuries. For a Madera slip and fall lawsuit, it is essential to clearly and quickly identify the condition that caused the accident.

The statute of limitations mandates the timely filing of your claim. In California, you have two years from the date of the incident to file a claim. If you fail to file in time, the law may permanently bar you from seeking your remedy. Filing a timely claim and promptly finding an accidental injury lawyer in Madera serves the best interests of everyone involved. Witness testimony, recollections, evidence of your injuries, and other critical elements of your case are simply easier to obtain near the date of the accident.
