How to Establish Landowner Liability in a Slip and Fall Case<\/h2>\n

Getting hurt on someone else\u2019s land does not automatically make you eligible for financial compensation. Per O.C.G.A. \u00a7 51-3-1<\/a>, a property owner is liable for your injuries if they invited you onto their property. To establish your case, we must establish the following:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. There was a hazardous condition on the property. For example, a restaurant had a station where the servers refilled soft drinks. Servers frequently dribbled some of the beverages when refilling the glasses, making the floor around this station wet and slick.<\/li>\n
  2. The owner knew or should have known about this dangerous condition. Servers complained to the manager regularly about the problem and requested an absorbent rug to cover the area and soak up the spills.<\/li>\n
  3. The owner had sufficient time to repair the hazard or prevent injuries by placing barriers and warning signs. The restaurant had the slippery floor problem ever since it opened a year ago. The manager could have put obstacles and warning signs in place within minutes of the first complaint.<\/li>\n
  4. The owner did not take reasonable actions to fix the problem or prevent injuries by erecting barriers and posting warning signs.<\/li>\n
  5. The dangerous condition caused someone to get hurt and experience quantifiable damages. A restaurant patron lost her footing on a puddle of spilled beverage on the floor near the station. She slipped and fell, sustaining a concussion, a broken pelvis, and a case of whiplash. Physical injuries satisfy the element of measurable losses.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In this situation, the owner will be liable for the injured person\u2019s losses because the facts meet all of the requirements of premises liability.<\/p>\n

    The Amount of Damages You Can Collect<\/h2>\n

    We cannot provide you with a number that represents how much compensation you might be able to go after for your slip and fall claim in Georgia because every slip and fall accident claim is different. The amount of compensation you might be able to recover will depend on the facts of your situation.<\/p>\n

    Some of the damages we have won for our slip and fall injury clients include:<\/p>\n

    Medical Expenses<\/h3>\n

    Generally, you can go after the reasonable cost of medical treatment you needed for your injuries. These items can include things like the ambulance, emergency room, hospital, doctors, surgery, diagnostic procedures, blood transfusions, pain management, physical therapy, and related items.<\/p>\n

    Lost Wages<\/h3>\n

    If you missed time from work without pay because of the accident, medical treatments, and recuperation time, you could add this item to your claim. This category can include salary, hourly wages, self-employment, and other forms of regular income.<\/p>\n

    Diminished Earning Capacity<\/h3>\n

    If you have to take a lower-paying job or work fewer hours because of your injuries, the difference in earnings can be compensable. For example, a person who had worked a job that involved standing and lifting had to take a lower-paying desk job because of a shattered kneecap from a slip and fall accident. The amount of decreased income can be a part of the claim.<\/p>\n

    Noneconomic Losses<\/h3>\n

    Many physical injuries involve physical discomfort and mental distress. Pain and suffering damages address these losses. Also, depending on the facts of your situation, you might be eligible to seek compensation for other intangible damages like disfigurement and loss of the enjoyment of life.<\/p>\n

    We must prove the legal responsibility of the landowner before you qualify for monetary compensation.<\/p>\n
