Slip & Fall
Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises reasonably safe. When they don't — and someone gets hurt because of it — Texas premises liability law allows an injured visitor to hold them accountable.
Holding Property Owners Accountable for Unsafe Conditions
Slip, trip, and fall injuries happen on wet floors, broken stairs, uneven walkways, poorly lit parking lots, and cluttered aisles — often because a property owner or manager knew about a hazard and failed to fix it or warn visitors. These cases turn on a specific legal question: did the property owner know, or should they have known, about the dangerous condition?
Proving that answer requires fast, careful investigation — surveillance footage, incident reports, and maintenance records can disappear or get overwritten quickly. Jason moves to preserve that evidence early and builds the case needed to hold a negligent property owner responsible.
Common Scenarios
- Wet or recently mopped floors without warning signs
- Broken or poorly maintained stairs
- Uneven sidewalks & parking lots
- Inadequate lighting
- Cluttered aisles & walkways
- Snow & ice left untreated
Proving a Premises Liability Case
Notice of the Hazard
The property owner must have known — or reasonably should have known — about the dangerous condition and failed to address it.
Evidence Disappears Quickly
Surveillance video is often overwritten within days or weeks, making early investigation critical to a strong claim.
Documenting the Injury
A clear record connecting the fall to the resulting injury is essential — especially when an insurer tries to argue the injury came from somewhere else.
