It seems like a no-brainer: If water is tracked across the produce section in the grocery store, causing you to slip and throw out your back, the store is responsible for covering your medical bills and lost wages, right?

It's not that simple, according to personal injury attorney Michael Gopin. You need to prove:

  • A dangerous condition existed. Think slippery floor, cracks or dips in the sidewalk, etc.
  • The property owner had time to learn of the problem and fix it.
  • The property owner didn't provide a warning about the problem. Remember all those wet floor signs you see in stores?
  • You didn't cause or contribute to your accident. You could still have a case if you did, but it could reduce the amount you are able to recover.
