You can file a premises liability lawsuit in Colorado for a slip and fall accident if one or more parties is responsible for causing or contributing to your fall. A premises liability claim seeks to hold a property owner legally and financially responsible (liable) for accidents that take place on the property due to negligence, or the failure to act with ordinary care. A slip and fall accident can occur due to an uneven surface, freshly mopped or waxed floor, broken staircase, food debris, or spilled liquid. If the property owner reasonably should have prevented the accident, such as by detecting and remedying the hazard sooner, the owner can be held liable. Our Thorton premises liability attorneys are ready to help file your claim and hold the property owner liable.
