10 Common Premises Liability Accidents
In order for an accident to be considered eligible for a premise liability claim, a person must have been on another person’s property and suffered an injury on that property due to certain actions or inaction on the behalf of the owner or manager. In such instances, the property owners or those in charge of ensuring the safety of the property fail to perform necessary maintenance or do not follow critical safety regulations, resulting in a dangerous property that causes innocent people injury. While these kinds of accidents can occur as a result of many different acts, there are certain premises liability accidents that happen more frequently.
10 Accidents
While there is a large variety of premises liability accidents, some affect people more often than others, causing serious harm to numerous innocent Americans. Ten of the more common premises liability accidents include:
- Stair Collapse
- Porch Collapse
- Mercury Poisoning
- Lead Paint Poisoning
- Slip and Fall Accidents
- Fires
- Pesticide Exposure
- Toxic Mold Exposure
- Elevator / Escalator Injuries
- Swimming Pool Injuries
Each of these accidents can all too easily cause harm to an innocent property visitor. Additionally, sometimes these injuries require an injured person to seek immediate or extensive medical care, which can be very expensive, potentially even beyond the financial capabilities of an individual.
