Factors in Your Slip and Fall Accident Due to Poor Lighting

Slip or trip and fall accidents can be caused by a wide array of circumstances that result in injuries and even death. In New York, accidents related to falls are the leading cause of hospitalizations for people over the age of 25 and the most common cause of accidental death for individuals over the age of 45, according to the New York State Department of Health.

Poor lighting has the ability to create unsafe conditions by concealing situations that would not otherwise be dangerous with proper lighting, causing those in the area to slip or trip and fall. For example, if you were in a dark parking lot and due to poor lighting t you were unable to see a pothole and as a result, you stepped into it causing you to trip and fall, you have the right to make a claim to recover money damages resulting from the injuries you suffered.

You might have been injured while visiting:

  • A residential area, such as an individual’s home or apartment building
  • A commercial business, such as a grocery store or department store
  • Government property, such as a public park, office or public housing complex

Inadequate lighting can be caused by various circumstances. It may be due to how a building was designed, where lights were situated on a building’s exterior, or if improper lights were used, preventing pedestrians from being able to clearly make out their path. Inadequate lighting may also be the result of negligent maintenance practices, in which an owner or caretaker of the property fails to replace lights as needed.

How a Lawyer May be Able to Help You
