Slip and Fall/Dangerous Premises Lawyer in Eugene

Slip and fall accidents may happen anywhere in Oregon and can cause serious personal injury. Most slip or trip and falls happen in commercial settings, such as grocery stores, drug stores, office buildings, construction sites, gas stations and malls, but they also happen on private or public property. Premises liability accidents can include toxic exposure, animal attacks, swimming pool accidents and amusement park ride accidents.

In Oregon, an owner of operator of a property has a duty to maintain the property responsibly and avoid the existence of hazardous conditions, or they must warn a user of the property of an existing dangerous condition.

Dangerous or defective conditions may be large or small, temporary or permanent. Therefore, investigation of the claim is essential to a successful premises liability case. Temporary conditions such as water on the floor of a grocery store, or snow and ice on the stairs of a restaurant need to be investigated quickly. Often experts must be obtained to measure the available friction on the floor or to determine biomechanically how the fall happened. Our lawyers know what experts to retain to best prosecute your Oregon personal injury claim.

Slip and fall or dangerous premises cases are some of the toughest personal injury cases to prove because every individual has responsibility for keeping himself safe and watching where they are going. However, dangerous property cases are some of the most important to society, because the threat of a potential claim is what motivates many property owners to maintain their property in a safe condition.
