Premises Liability Claim for Holiday Decorations Accident
Property owners are responsible for ensuring that lawful visitors are safe when entering their property; this may include guests, door visitors, or USPS personnel. If a property owner is negligent by causing safety hazards with their decorations, such as having an open flame or a tripping hazard, then they may be held liable for injuries and other losses incurred by the victim.
In order to obtain a successful outcome for a premise liability case for a holiday decoration accident, you must prove that the property owner was careless in maintaining or demonstrating reasonable care with decorations. You illustrate that the property owner was aware of or should have reasonably known that the premises was in an unsafe condition and still failed to take appropriate steps to remedy the problem.
This may include the following premise liability cases:
- Insufficient maintenance of the property
- Defective conditions on the property
- Slip-and-falls
- Fires
- Water leaks or flooding
- Toxic fumes or chemicals
- Product defects
If a property owner fails to address dangerous conditions in a timely manner, they may be accountable for damages associated with holiday decorations on their property.
