Slip/Trip and fall accidents, otherwise referred to as premises liability accidents, occur when the City and/or a landowner neglect their duties to keep roadways, walkways, streets, sidewalks, floors, staircases and pathways in safe condition. It is the duty of a landowner to maintain their property in a manner that is free from any dangerous conditions. It is the duty of the City to maintain public property in a manner that is free from any dangerous conditions. Defective or broken stairs, accumulated water, patches of ice, damaged or cracked sidewalk, roadway defects, or foreign substances on a floor are all common causes of slip/trip fall accidents. These accidents take place in a city street or sidewalk, private home, office building, grocery store, gas station, and city parks and pathways.
