Understanding Commercial Injury Claims
What is a Commercial Injury?
A commercial injury occurs when an individual sustains harm while on a commercial property, typically due to unsafe conditions or the negligence of the property owner, manager, or business operator. Examples include:
Slip-and-fall accidents caused by wet floors or uneven surfaces.
Falling objects in retail stores or warehouses.
Injuries from defective or improperly maintained equipment.
Accidents resulting from poor lighting or inadequate security.
Fire or chemical exposure incidents in commercial environments.
Who is Liable for a Commercial Injury?
Property owners, managers, or businesses that operate commercial spaces are responsible for maintaining a safe environment for visitors. When they fail to uphold this duty of care, they may be held liable for injuries caused by their negligence. Common examples of negligence include:
Failing to address known hazards in a timely manner.
Inadequate staff training to prevent or mitigate risks.
Neglecting to warn visitors about potential dangers.
Violating safety regulations or building codes.

Common Challenges in Commercial Injury Cases
Disputing Liability
Property owners and their insurance companies often attempt to deny liability by claiming:
- The hazard was open and obvious.
- The victim was partially or fully at fault.
- The hazard did not exist long enough for the owner to address it.
We counter these defenses by leveraging evidence, expert testimony, and a thorough understanding of premises liability law.
Underestimating Damages
Insurance companies may try to minimize the value of your claim. Our attorneys work diligently to document the full extent of your injuries and losses to ensure fair compensation.
