Whether you're a resident or a visitor in San Jose or the Bay Area, your safety should always be a top priority. Property owners have a legal responsibility to maintain safe environments, ensuring walkways are clear, lighting is adequate, and conditions are free from hazards.
In bustling areas like downtown San Jose and San Francisco, slip and fall injuries can occur in various locations—from sidewalks and parking lots to office buildings, restaurants, and hotels. If you’ve been injured due to unsafe conditions on someone else’s property, you may be entitled to compensation. Premises liability claims cover a wide range of incidents, including slip and fall accidents and personal attacks, all caused by preventable hazards. Property owners are accountable for maintaining safe premises and addressing risks before they cause harm.
