Under the California Civil Code, property owners have a duty of care to ensure the safety of their guests. This includes providing proper maintenance and upkeep of the property while warning visitors of any potential dangers that exist. When the premises owner neglects this duty, they can be held liable for damages you suffer. Depending on the situation, you may be entitled to compensation through the property owners insurer. At Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, we aggressively negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf. If a reasonable settlement cannot be reached, our Napa slip and fall attorneys can guide you in in filing a premises liability lawsuit.
