Liability > Slip and Fall
A slip and fall claim is a type of personal injury
lawsuit filed by an Oklahoma plaintiff who has been injured
by a slip and fall, usually on the defendant's property.
Examples of very common Oklahoma slip and fall plaintiffs
lawsuits include the grocery store patron who slips on a spill
or a piece of food laying on the floor, and falls, causing
injury to himself; and a hotel guest who slips in the shower
and injures her back in the process.
The plaintiff in slip and fall cases must usually show that
the owner of the property had notice or knowledge of the condition,
and failed to clean it up and rectify it within a reasonable
amount of time. If the plaintiff slipped on a grape that had
been lying on the floor for two hours, and the manager of
the store had walked past it and inspected it five times before
asking someone to clean it up, liability is likely.
