Indiana Slip and Fall Cases: No Hazard, No Case

追加: 2026-06-02

[00:00:00]Just because you slipped and fell in a store does not automatically mean you have a case. I know people don't like hearing that, but it's true. In a slip and fall case, we need to know what made you fall. Was there water on the floor, ice by the entrance, a leaking freezer, a grape in the produce section, or torn rug? Because if there's no dangerous condition, there's likely not going to be a case. Because the law does not automatically make property owners responsible every time somebody falls.

[00:00:25]They're not insurers of the universe.

[00:00:27]They're not required to be magic, but they are required to act reasonably. So, if a store lets a dangerous condition sit there and does nothing about it, gives no warning, and someone gets hurt, now we may have something. That's why pictures matter. Do not just take a picture of your bruise. Take a picture of what made you fall, the spill, the step, the rug, the ice, the missing warning signs. Because your injury matters, but the hazard helps prove why the injury happened.
