A slip and fall injury can happen to anyone at any time, although elderly individuals face a greater risk of serious harm. Unfortunately, most slip and fall incidents occur due to issues with property maintenance.
If your slip and fall occurs while you’re on someone else’s property and is a direct result of the owner or renter’s failure to maintain the property safely for guests, you have the right to pursue a claim for damages.

What are Your Legal Rights After a Slip and Fall in Arvada?
When a slip and fall occurs, you have the right to be compensated for your losses if the fall occurred as a result of a property owner’s failure to maintain the property safely. The owner could be at fault for premises liability.
The specific obligation the property owner has depends on whether you were a licensee, invitee, or trespasser.
Invitees are invited guests there to benefit the property owner, such as store customers, and they are owed the highest duty of care. Licensees are casual guests, like friends visiting, and they’re owed an intermediate duty of care, while trespassers are owed very little protection at all.
If a property owner failed to fulfill their obligations based on the specific duty they owed to you, they should compensate you for all economic and non-financial losses resulting from the fall, including pain and suffering, medical bills, lost wages, and emotional distress damages.
You can negotiate a settlement with the insurer of the property owner or occupier to get this compensation, or go to court and fight for a verdict in your favor that covers your losses.
