What is A “Duty of Care?”

In California, property owners owe a duty of care to all visitors to their premises. A breach of the duty of care owed to another party is called “negligence.” In slip and fall cases, evidence of negligence may include surveillance footage, photos of the hazard that caused the fall, eyewitness depositions, incident reports, records of similar past accidents, and property maintenance records. If you’ve been injured in a slip and fall, it is vital to act quickly to preserve evidence. Particularly in slip and fall cases that involve physical evidence like a torn rug or liquid spill, an adverse party can easily erase any sign that the accident happened. To mitigate this risk, you can:

• Inform the property owner or manager and complete an incident report.
• Contact the police to secure an accident report.
• Take photos and videos of the scene.
• Record the names and contact information of the property owner, tenant, or manager on-site.
• Ask eyewitnesses for their names and contact information.
• Collect and preserve the shoes that the victim was wearing at the time of the fall.

In addition to gathering this information, contact an experienced personal injury attorney to help you preserve your claim.
