Slip and fall accidents can cause surprisingly serious injuries, and they often happen in retail or commercial locations. When you are a customer of a business, the business must ensure that the grounds of the business are safe for the customers they invited in to shop or dine.
Whether you are at the mall or in a restaurant, the commercial location must keep the walkways free of hazards and effectively warn of any hazards while offering alternative routes in the event there are dangers. When you slip and fall because a hazard exists in a business or on someone else’s property, the company or property owner should be liable for your lost income and other losses.
