The most common type of premises liability claim people think of is slip and falls or trip and falls. However, premises liability can also include any time of inadequate maintenance of the property, defective conditions on the property, collapse stairwells, no railing on stairwells, inadequate building security leading to injury, elevator and escalator accidents, dog bites, swimming pool accidents, amusement park accidents, fires, water leaks or flooding, defective layout or design of a highway or parking lot, and exposure to toxic fumes or chemicals.
