When Is a Property Owner Responsible?

In California, property owners and businesses must use reasonable care to keep their property safe. A claim generally requires showing that:

• A dangerous condition existed.
• The owner knew about it, or should have found it through reasonable inspections.
• The owner failed to fix it or warn visitors.
• The condition caused your fall and injuries.

California uses comparative fault. If the owner argues you were partly careless, you may still recover compensation, reduced by your share of fault.

What to Do After a Fall

1. Get medical care and keep all records.
2. Report the fall to the manager or owner and request a copy of the incident report.
3. Photograph the hazard and the area before it is cleaned or repaired.
4. Get witness names and phone numbers.
5. Ask whether security cameras recorded the fall.
6. Avoid signing documents or giving recorded statements before talking to a lawyer.

Time Limits

Most slip and fall lawsuits in California must be filed within two years. If you fell on public property, such as a city sidewalk or state building, a written claim usually must be filed within six months.
