Getting hurt on someone’s property due to their carelessness makes that person liable to pay you compensation!
A property owner or business operator is responsible for your injuries if you are injured on their premises while doing business or as an invitee. Property owners are duty-bound to ensure their premises are safe for their visitors. Maintenance or repair work must be done under safe conditions to prevent injuries to those who have cause to legally be on the premises. If someone has an accident on another person’s property resulting in an injury, the injured party may be eligible for damages from the property owner under the law.
