Premises security claims can be difficult and it must be shown that the owners’ negligence caused the injury. In order to prove negligence, it must be determined that the owner knew, or should have known, that there was an unreasonably dangerous condition and did not take action to correct it. Often, negligence can be proven by showing that a hazard:

  • Had been reported to property owner or agent
  • Is a commonsense consequence of weather or season
  • Was caused by owner or employee
  • Developed slowly or persisted long enough that it should have been caught

Often, collecting testimony from witnesses and documenting the scene thoroughly is crucial to being able to prove your case. Contacting a lawyer quickly can help ensure the scene is documented before evidence is lost or destroyed.
