You can’t live your life worrying about every single dangerous situation that you may encounter. Luckily we live in one of the best-regulated countries, with many laws requiring business owners and private citizens to upkeep their properties to protect others from injury. Properties must be maintained properly as dictated under the law. If you are injured as a result of an improperly maintained property, you may initiate a premises liability lawsuit.
Taking Action
Being injured by falling on an icy sidewalk or being attacked in a dimly lit parking lot isn’t necessarily your fault. Don’t make light of your own situation or blame yourself. Property owners and the city are required to maintain properties including parking lots, public roads, public sidewalks, stairs and rails. If you were hurt due to negligence or carelessness you have a right to receive fair compensation through legal action.
