Do You Have a Valid Injury Claim?

You might tell yourself that slipping and falling at an airport only happens to clumsy or careless people. But that is not always the case. If a slip and fall occurs on another person’s property, such as an airport, due to unsafe conditions that could have been prevented, you may have a valid injury claim. Additional factors of a legitimate slip and fall case include:

• The airport employees or owner knew or should have known about potentially dangerous conditions on the premises;

• The danger was not open and obvious;

• The airport employees or owner failed to repair the danger or warn others of its presence; and

• The victim was injured as a result of the dangerous condition.

For example, the carpet along a walkway at an airport, such as Phoenix Sky Harbor International or Tucson International, becomes worn and loose. The management or employees have noticed the tripping hazard but fail to address it. They do not even put up a warning sign. If a traveler trips on the carpet and hurts his back, he might be entitled to pursue compensation from the airport for the resulting medical costs, lost wages, etc.

What Are Some Hazards in Arizona Airports?

Airports are notoriously busy places, with people rushing to and from their gate at all hours of the day. It does not take long for dangerous conditions to arise with so much foot traffic. Slip and fall accidents in airports often occur as a result of the following:

• Wet, slippery floors

• Poor lighting

• Broken, defective flooring

• Exposed electrical wires

• No clear warning signs

• Malfunctioning elevators, moving walkways or escalators

If possible, it is best to take pictures of the dangerous condition that caused your accident and ask for eye witness testimony. Other valuable forms of evidence include surveillance footage and an incident report from the location.
