Slip & Fall Injury Claims: Understanding Property Owner Liability in Arizona

Property owners have an obligation to keep their premises safe from hazards that can cause slip and fall accidents. If they fail to take the necessary precautions, visitors and guests can suffer serious injuries due to a variety of mistakes.

Common examples of property owner negligence that can cause a slip and fall accident include:

  • Neglecting to warn visitors about potential hazards.
  • Letting spills stay on slick flooring or tiles.
  • Inadequate lighting that limits visibility.
  • Not repairing broken or missing handrails near steps.
  • Failing to maintain the property.
  • And other acts of negligence or inaction.

Residential property owners and commercial property owners must both try to prevent slip and fall accidents on their properties, but the methods they use might be different. For example, a retail store owner might need to hire staff members to sweep and clean the floor regularly, especially in areas where shoppers frequent.

Common Injuries from Slip & Fall Accidents and Your Rights

Slip and fall accidents can cause a variety of injuries, ranging from minor bruises, cuts, or scrapes to more severe injuries like fractures, head trauma, or back and spinal cord injuries. Elderly people are especially vulnerable to these kinds of accidents since they tend to be at a greater risk of bone fractures. Do not be convinced by the defendant that your injuries “can’t be serious” because you “only slipped and fell.” See a medical professional for a diagnosis as soon as you can, which can help build your claim later.
