Vacation Accidents

Vacation accidents come in many shapes and forms, and can include the following:

The negligent actions of another person often lead to these types of accidents, many which occur on a business’ premises. The actions of a business owner may lead to their liability for any accidents which occur on the premises. An owner of property has a high duty of care to protect visitors on the property, especially paying customers. Hotel guests, diners, and shoppers should all be protected by the relevant property owners and informed of any dangerous situations which might exist in the premises. For example, a recent spill on the floor or a rusted bannister should be immediately addressed, with signs affixed to warn any visitors. The failure of a property owner to warn visitors of any hidden dangers could lead to disastrous consequences.
