Who Will Pay for Your Personal Injury

Under West Virginia law, property owners are obligated to exercise reasonable care when maintaining their properties so that visitors not subject to unreasonable risks. Specifically, this means individuals should not have to look down to watch that every step they take is free of danger.

Unfortunately, property owners often fail in this duty and those injured are left holding the bill for careless property owners. In West Virginia, between October of 2011 and August 2014, 1,086 injuries resulted from Slip & Fall type accidents totaling an incurred cost of $8,141,323.

Fortunately, West Virginia law provides a means for injured individuals to recover their losses, according to Richard Harris personal injury lawyers, Las Vegas Nevada. It is only fair that those responsible, in whole or in part, for causing a serious fall to provide redress for the harm caused. However, unique legal rules apply to each situation to determine what the party should have done to prevent the accident. It is imperative for those affected to have the help of legal professionals experienced in these cases.

For instance, West Virginia Code section 55-2-12 contains a two-year statute of limitations that apply to almost all such lawsuits. What that means is anyone injured in a slip & fall accident caused by dangerous property conditions on someone else’s property must get their lawsuit filed against any potential defendant within two years.
