When You Slip And Fall At A Store, Call Your
Premise Liability Attorney.
Ohio Slip And Fall Injury Lawyer - Cleveland Premise Liability Attorney
– Call The Right Attorney - Cleveland, Ohio
When you are shopping at a supermarket, dining at
a restaurant or browsing through a mall or big box store, you
rightfully expect to be protected by the owners from unseen or
unknown dangers. Ohio has laws requiring business owners to take
reasonable steps to protect, warn and not actively injure their
patrons, who are legally known as business invitees. Business owners
who fail to live up to this responsibility can be held responsible
for the injuries that result – ranging anywhere from a sprained
ankle or broken arm to a spinal cord injury or even death.
However, because the extent of the business owners’ duty and whether
they failed to meet is rarely clear cut and depends on the
circumstances of each case it is important to consult an Ohio
premise liability attorney as soon as possible. Indeed, stores and
business owners act immediately to minimize their liability by
immediately making accident reports to send to their insurance
companies and their own group of premise liability attorneys. The
best way to level the playing field is to immediately call your own
Cleveland premise liability attorney.
At The Spitz Law Firm, you will be represented by such a premise
liability attorney that has accumulated significant experience
dealing with the various types of claims against business owners.
These types of premise liability claims include:
Slip and Fall
A slip and fall is a generic term used by premise
liability attorneys for all injury that occurs when someone slips, trips
and/or falls as a result of a dangerous or hazardous condition on business
property. It includes falls as a result of a spilled or leaking products,
somewhat concealed objects left on the floor, abrupt changes in flooring,
ripped carpeting, improperly placed floor mats, or hard to see holes in the
ground or parking lot. In limited circumstances, business owners may also be
liable for accumulations of ice, snow or rain water, where such
accumulations are not naturally occurring.

In order to recover on these types of slip and
fall accidents, a victim,
with the help of the right premise liability attorney, must prove that he or
she had not been warned and was unaware of the condition, and that at least
one of the following apply:
-
The business, or its employees, caused the unsafe
condition (by spilling something and not cleaning it up, by digging a
hard-to-spot hole in a heavily trafficked area, etc.);
-
The business, or its employees, knew about the
condition but did not try to correct it by either fixing the problem or
posting a visible warning sign; or
-
The business, or its employees, should have known
about the dangerous condition, because a “reasonable” person would have
found the problem based on the amount of time that had passed.
Falling Merchandise
Occurring surprisingly more often than expected,
customers are injured when heavy merchandise falls off store shelves. This
is often the result of improper stacking by store employees or improperly
designed shelving systems. Like slip and fall accidents, victims and their
premise liability lawyer will have to prove that the business, or its
employees, created, knew or should have known about the condition.
Negligent Conduct By Store Employees
Sometimes store patrons are not hurt by dangerous
conditions, but by the employees of the store or business. Just like
businesses and companies are responsible for the automobile or truck
accidents that their employees cause outside the store, the businesses and
companies are responsible for the negligent conduct of their employees
inside the store or business – such as running into patrons with tow motors
or forklifts; spilling hot coffee or other hot liquids on diners; or
dropping lumber or other heavy merchandise on a shopper.

Criminal Assaults Business Premises
As your Cleveland premise liability law firm, we know
that the most devastating injuries – and sometimes even death – occur when
patrons of a business are assaulted, attacked and/or shot by criminals.
Unlike being directly liable for the conduct of its employees, businesses
are not directly liable for the conduct of criminals who commit these crimes
on their property. But, under some circumstances Ohio law does hold these
businesses responsible if they failed to provide adequate security after
being warned of the potential criminal conduct directly or put on notice of
such possibility through similar criminal conduct on their property or in
the surrounding neighborhood. Each of these cases is extremely complex and
dependant on host of variables, including facts specific to each case and
the law that might apply. Therefore, it is important to call the right
premise liability attorney as soon as possible in order to discuss your case
specifically.
While every store injury case is different, one thing remains the same:
stores and business should be held accountable when they injure you. The
best way to make them pay is to first call the right premise liability
attorney. Call The Spitz Law Firm today for a free evaluation of your case.
