New Mexico Premises Liability and Slip and Fall Accidents
Premises Liability, Slip/Trip and Fall Accidents:
Premises liability is a legal responsibility of property owners to maintain safe conditions on their premises for visitors. Slip-and-fall injuries are an example of premises liability in cases of hazardous conditions on property. Such hazards may include wet floors, uneven surfaces, poor lighting, or even walkways that were not properly maintained.
Applying Premises Liability Laws to Slip/Trip and Fall Accidents:
1. Duty of Care:
2. Negligence and Causation:
For one to establish a premises liability claim, one must be able to show that the property owner is responsible for creating the dangerous condition through some sort of negligence on their part. Alternatively, this would mean proof that an owner either knew about or should have known about the danger but did nothing to rectify it.
3. Comparative Negligence:
What to Do If Injured on Someone Else's Property:
Seek Medical Attention: Your health is paramount, and you must seek medical attention immediately after being injured in a slip or trip and fall accident.
Document the Scene: Where possible, photograph the dangerous condition, accident scene, and your injury. These photographs can be very important evidence.
Report the Incident: Inform the property owner or manager of the accident, and make sure an incident report is prepared.
Gather information: Collect all contact information from any witness who may have seen the accident occur.
Preserve Evidence: Preserve the clothes and shoes that you were wearing during the accident. They could contain some helpful information.
Consult a Premises Liability Attorney: The best course of action is to contact a highly experienced premises liability attorney such as those at Raymon Law Group to explain your rights to you, assess the potential value of your claim, and outline your legal options.
