Who May Be Liable For My Slip and Fall Accident?
Slip and fall accidents happen in offices, residential driveways, commercial parking lots and in many other locations. It is challenging to determine liability, and often negligence may be shared for a single accident.
Liability often depends on where the accident happened:
Commercial property ”“ There are multiple parties who have a duty to maintain commercial property and could potentially be liable for a slip and fall accident, including:
- The property owner or landlord who has a duty to oversee property maintenance and ensure the property is reasonably safe, even if he or she does not own or operate the business that is on the property.
- A business owner has an obligation to maintain a safe property. He or she must take reasonable steps, such as supervising or doing the repair of torn flooring, replacing lights in a dimly lit hallway or cleaning up broken glass.
- Individual employees may also be responsible if they see a hazard and do not take care of it or inform a supervisor or the business owner about it.
Residential property ”“ Slip and fall accidents are always complicated, even those involving a residential property where there may be multiple responsible parties, such as a landowner, tenant or other third party.
To establish liability, the injured party must be able to prove the owner knew about the dangerous condition, he or she could have fixed the problem, and the accident and resulting injury was caused by the negligent act of not correcting or repairing the hazard.
Dangerous conditions on a residential property could include, but are not limited to:
- Poorly-lit hallways
- Uneven pavement
- Torn carpeting
- Broken railing on a stairway
- Unguarded swimming pools
Government property ”“ Accidents that happen on property owned by a government entity are typically very different from other slip and fall cases, and the filing deadline, at 180 days, is much shorter. If you think you may have a case for an accident that occurred on local, state or federal property, it is important that you contact a licensed attorney immediately.
Gathering supportive evidence for any type of slip and fall case on your own can be difficult, but at
Phillips Law, our experienced slip and fall attorneys know exactly what to look for and how to best utilize any information we obtain to build a strong argument on your behalf.
What Is the Total Value of My Slip and Fall Case?
The answer to this question can vary greatly, because the value is largely based on the unique circumstances of where and how your accident occurred and how severe your injuries may be.
Our knowledgeable Prescott slip and fall lawyers are prepared to carefully examine all the details of your situation to help determine the maximum value of your potential claim, including:
- The severity of your injuries
- Bills for emergency services
- Present and future medical treatments
- Costs for hospital visits or in-patient stays
- Prescription medication expenses
- Pain and suffering
- Lost wages if you had to miss work to recover

How Long Do I Have to File a Claim?
Personal injury victims in Yavapai County have just two years from the date of the accident to file a claim for compensation. This deadline, or statute of limitations, applies throughout the state of Arizona.
Although this time limit for filing applies in most cases, there are some exceptions that would give you considerably less time ”“ for instance, you are given just 180 days if you file a claim against a government entity.

Our free consultation gives you an opportunity to get answers to your legal questions and find out whether you may have a valid case, and since there is no cost to you, there is also no risk.

Great experience! Took care of pretty much everything, and I always felt like I want in good hands. Caroline Fa. was also a great help with everything. She always returned my calls and I never felt unheard. Even after my case she would still help me with my insurance documents.

I would have no hesitation at all recommending Phillips Law Group. In particular, Juan Roque has impressed me with his professionalism, his integrity and his heart for the community!

I was recently served court documents that I was being sued from an accident that happened years ago. For someone who has never been through something like this and not familiar with the court lingo or where to even begin, it was very frustrating and stressful. I reached out to a family member who knew Tracy Laskos and the great reputation of Phillips Law Group and within the hours of the initial call for help, I had a direct number to Lead Attorney Nassar. Nassar heard my case and almost instantly put me at ease by explaining the process and how easy it was to handle. Nassar spoke to me like he was a friend, not like I was a client. I am so grateful to Tracy, Nasar and of course my cousin Stephanie for helping out and giving me the direction that I needed to get through this situation. I plan on referring my friends, family and patients that are in need of a personal injury Attorney to Phillips Law Group. Thank you!!
