Accidents And Incidents Leading To Liability Claims
Liability claims can arise from a variety of circumstances and events. Many of the claims we have represented involved things such as loading and unloading operations, motor vehicle incidents and on-site accidents. This can lead to everything from substantial claims for serious cognitive injuries to “slip-and-fall” actions alleging less serious injuries. Cases resulting from these types of events are usually based on claims such as:
- Negligent operation
- Negligent retention
- Negligent security
- False imprisonment
- Malicious prosecution
- Discrimination
Claims may also accuse business owners of failing to maintain a safe environment on their premises. Hazardous conditions noted in these types of claims include:
- Faulty equipment
- Uneven pavement
- Standing water
- Inadequate lighting
- Inadequate security
Issues of indemnification and contribution commonly surface, either by virtue of commercial agreements or under the common law.
