California Slip and Fall Laws

California law recognizes the responsibility of property owners to maintain safe premises for visitors and guests. When a property owner fails to fulfill this duty, resulting in injuries from a slip and fall accident, they can be held liable for the damages suffered by the victim. To establish a successful slip-and-fall claim in California, the following elements must be proven:

  • Duty of Care: The property owner was legally obligated to maintain the premises in a reasonably safe manner.
  • Breach of Duty: The property owner failed to fulfill their duty of care by either creating a hazardous condition or failing to address a known hazard.
  • Causation: The hazardous condition directly caused the slip and fall accident.
  • Damages: The victim suffered injuries and other losses as a result of the accident.
