Proving Negligence Caused Your Slip and Fall Injury and Subsequent Losses
Before we can claim compensation for you, we must prove negligence on the part of the property owner, business manager, or occupier. O.C.G.A. § 51-3-1 states that owners and occupiers have a duty to provide ordinary care to prevent harm to those who come on the property lawfully. If they fail to address dangerous conditions, they may be liable for damages, meaning they would be financially responsible for your losses.
For instance, if the owner or occupier was aware that liquid from an unknown source was on the floor but didn’t clean it up or put warning signs around the puddle until it could be cleaned up, and you slipped and fell, injuring yourself, that may be considered negligence. One of our slip and fall attorneys will investigate the circumstances of your fall for evidence supporting your claim for compensation.
Your right to compensation may also depend on your status as a visitor on the premises. One of our Atlanta Dollar Tree slip and fall accident lawyers will explain how these categories apply to you, but generally, visitors are:
- Invitees: People who are implicitly or explicitly invited to be on the property, such as a plumber hired to fix a plugged sink or a customer
- Licensees: People who are visiting for social reasons or their own interest, such as a vendor selling a product they want the shop to carry
- Trespassers: People who deliberately or accidentally enter the property with no legal reason to be there
The level of duty of care owed by the property owner, business manager, or occupier to a visitor varies, depending on the status of the visitor on the property.
Ultimately, we look for four elements to prove negligence:
- Did Dollar Tree have a duty of care to keep you safe from harm?
- Did they breach that duty of care and act negligently?
- Did that negligence cause the slip and fall accident and your injury?
- Did you suffer losses due to the injury?

Filing a Slip and Fall Personal Injury Lawsuit within the Statute of Limitations
Georgia’s statute of limitations allows you to file a personal injury lawsuit within two years of the date of your slip and fall accident. If you do not meet that deadline, you may not be allowed to pursue a compensation judgment or verdict. There are exceptions that may change the timeline for some. Speak with one of the Atlanta Dollar Tree slip and fall accident lawyers at Bader Law Injury Lawyers for clarification and to determine if your case could be affected by this rule.
