What Is “Slip and Fall?”



“Slip and fall” is a term for personal injuries incurred when a person slips and falls on a floor, sidewalk, stair, or other surface. As a broad general rule, if you are the owner of a house, a building, a parking lot, or other premises, you are responsible for injuries resulting from a slip and fall on the premises. An occupier of the premises, such as a tenant in an apartment building or a storeowner who leases a store, may also be liable for injuries if the occupier has control over the premises in which the injury occurred.
