Unsafe Property Conditions — Colorado Premises Liability
A property owner's failure to maintain buildings, walkways or stairwells can lead to serious injury when a person slips on an icy sidewalk or falls from a balcony improperly secured by defective railings. If you or someone in your family has suffered an accident resulting from negligent maintenance or snow removal, contact a Colorado trial lawyer at the law firm of Thomas J. Tomazin, Attorneys at Law.
The Property Owner's Responsibility to Reduce or Eliminate Hazards
Premises liability law requires property owners to guard against the reasonably foreseeable risks of injury or death from unsafe property conditions by either eliminating the hazard, providing an effective warning of the dangerous condition, or securing the property from the possibility that a person could be hurt.
