When a property owner invites you onto his or her property, he or she has a responsibility to protect you from dangerous conditions on that property. Furthermore, when you enter a business or establishment, that company is impliedly inviting you to enter, and is responsible for protecting you from dangers within. While unsafe conditions can arise in any situation where the public has access, store owners and employees have a duty to constantly maintain and supervise the facility, and to eliminate those dangers as soon as possible. When store employees neglect that responsibility, often customers who are exercising reasonable care become victims of that negligence.

Slipping and falling in a public or private facility may be shocking and embarrassing, and often the seriousness of the injuries may not be immediately apparent. Internal injuries such as fractures or bruising may only surface after the shock has subsided and the body becomes more aware of it’s physical state.
