Whether it’s a puddle of standing water at a grocery store in July or a hidden pothole in an Orchard Lake Road parking lot in the spring, property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises safe. If you’ve been injured as a result of a slip, trip, or fall, understanding the current state of Michigan law is the first step toward the recovery you deserve.

The New Legal Standard: No More Automatic Insurance Denials

For decades, Michigan property owners relied on a legal shield known as the “Open and Obvious” doctrine. If a hazard (like a patch of ice or a large spill) was “obvious,” judges would often dismiss the case immediately, claiming the victim should have just avoided it.

That has changed. Under current Michigan Supreme Court rulings (like Kandil-Elsayed v. F&E Oil), the “obviousness” of a danger is no longer an automatic “get out of jail free” card for property owners.

• The Property Owner’s Duty: They must now anticipate that a person might still encounter a hazard, even if the hazard is visible.
• Comparative Fault: Today, if you slip on a hazard that was somewhat visible, a jury decides how much fault lies with the owner versus you. You can still recover compensation even if you were partially responsible.

⚠️ Hazards for Every Season

Negligence isn’t just a winter problem. Here are common hazards we see in Farmington Hills throughout the year:

Spring: Cracked sidewalks and potholes caused by the “thaw-and-freeze” cycle.

Summer: Spills in grocery stores, lack of “Wet Floor” signs near cooling units, or poorly maintained pool decks.

Fall: Accumulated wet leaves on walkways that become as slippery as ice.

Year-Round: Inadequate lighting in parking garages and broken handrails in apartment complexes.

What to Do Immediately After a Fall

Regardless of the season, your actions in the first 30 minutes can make or break your claim:

1. Take Photos: Document the hazard exactly as it looked when you fell.
2. Report It: Get a written incident report from the manager or property owner.
3. Identify Witnesses: Get names and phone numbers of anyone who saw the fall.
4. Seek Medical Care: Some injuries, like herniated discs or concussions, don’t show symptoms until days later.
5. Call Neil Davis: We investigate the property’s maintenance history to prove the owner knew about the danger long before you arrived.

Don’t Wait for the Next Big Freeze

The statute of limitations for personal injury in Michigan is 3 years, but evidence such as security footage or witness memories can disappear within days. Whether you fell on ice or a spilled drink, let the Davis Law Center handle the fight against the insurance companies.

Accidents can happen anywhere, even on public property. If you’ve been injured while visiting a park, walking down the sidewalk on Maple Road, or entering a government building like the Farmington Hills library, you may be curious about your rights and options for seeking compensation. In this blog, the Davis Law Center discusses Farmington Hills and Michigan injuries occurring on public property and when you may be entitled to damages.

Premises Liability on Public Property

Premises liability is a legal concept under which an injured person can hold property owners responsible for maintaining safe conditions for visitors. While this often applies to private property owners, it also extends to government entities responsible for public spaces. In Michigan, including Farmington Hills and its surrounding areas, the city government, county, or the state of Michigan may be liable for injuries suffered by someone on public property due to negligence. However, pursuing a claim against a government entity for compensation can be more complicated than a typical personal injury case. Specific rules, procedures, and time limits must be followed when filing a claim against a public entity.

Your Rights as an Injured Party

If you’ve been injured on public property in Oakland County, we recoomend you:

• Seek immediate medical attention
• Report the incident to the appropriate authority
• Gather evidence to support your claim, including the photographs of the exact location, what caused the injury, and names and addresses of any witnesses
• File a notice of claim within the required timeframe
• Pursue compensation for your accident-related injuries and losses

Keep in mind that your ability to file a claim may be subject to governmental immunity laws, which can limit liability in certain circumstances.

Why You Should Act Quickly

In Michigan, there are strict time limits for filing a claim against a government entity. Generally, you must file a notice of intent to sue within 120 days of the incident. In certain circumstances, however, notice must be given to the appropriate governmental agency in as little as 60 days. This notice must include specific details about the injuries sustained, the exact location where the injury occurred, the nature of the defect that caused the injury, and the identity of all known witnesses. Failing to file this notice within the required timeframe can result in your claim being dismissed, regardless of its merit. This is why it’s crucial to talk to an experienced Farmington Hills personal injury attorney as soon as possible after your injury.

Proving Negligence in Public Property Cases

To successfully pursue a claim for an injury on public property in Farmington Hills and Metro Detroit, you’ll need to prove that:

• The government entity had a duty to maintain safe conditions on its property
• They failed to fulfill this duty (negligence)
• This failure directly caused your injury
• You suffered losses (like medical bills and lost wages) as a result

Examples of negligence on public property might include failing to repair known hazards, failing to provide adequate lighting in public areas, or failing to warn of potential dangers.

Potential Compensation for Your Injuries

You could be entitled to compensation for:

• Medical expenses (both current and future)
• Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress
• Rehabilitation costs

Understanding Governmental Immunity

One of the biggest challenges in public property injury cases is overcoming governmental immunity. In Michigan, government entities are generally immune from liability unless certain exceptions apply. These exceptions include:

• Defective highways
• Negligent operation of government-owned vehicles
• Dangerous or defective public buildings

An experienced attorney can help you determine whether your case falls under one of these exceptions and guide you through the complex process of filing a claim against a government entity.

Michigan’s Comparative Negligence Rule

Michigan follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means that if you’re found to be partially at fault for your injury, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. If you’re found to be more than 50% at fault, you will be barred from recovering compensation for your intangible losses, such as pain and suffering or loss of enjoyment of life.

Seeking Legal Assistance

Given the complexities of public property injury claims and the strict timelines involved, it’s important to seek legal assistance as soon as possible after your injury. An experienced personal injury attorney can explain the legal process, gather necessary evidence, and fight for the compensation you deserve.

When you visit someone else’s property in Farmington Hills, whether a business along Orchard Lake Road, a public space, or a private residence, you expect a certain level of safety. Property owners in Farmington Hills and Oakland County have a legal duty to maintain their premises free of hazardous conditions, and in some cases, to reasonably warn visitors of potential hazards. If a property owner neglects this obligation and someone is injured, the property owner may be deemed liable under Michigan premises liability law. Here, the Davis Law Center discusses some of the more common types of premises liability claims arising in Farmington Hills, metro Detroit, and throughout Michigan.

Slip and Falls in Farmington Hills

Slip-and-fall accidents are the most common type of premises liability case. These accidents occur when a visitor slips, trips, or falls due to a hazardous condition on the property. Examples of conditions that can lead to slip and fall accidents include:

• Wet or slippery floors caused by spills, leaks, or improper cleaning
• Uneven or damaged flooring, such as cracked sidewalks or loose carpeting
• Insufficient lighting that makes it difficult to see potential hazards
• Cluttered or obstructed walkways
• Lack of handrails on stairs or ramps
• Accumulation of ice and snow

Oakland County Negligent Security Lawsuits

Property owners in Oakland County and throughout Michigan must also provide adequate security to protect visitors from foreseeable criminal acts. This duty applies to businesses, apartment complexes, and other properties where criminal activity is a known risk. In the context of businesses such as hotels and motels, the “innkeeper” has a duty to protect their guests from injury and must exercise ordinary care and prudence to keep the premises reasonably safe. Upthegrove v. Myers, 99 Mich. App. 776 (1980). When a property owner fails to implement reasonable security measures, and someone suffers an injury resulting from a criminal act, the property owner may be held liable under premises liability law and/or common law.

Examples of inadequate security-related injuries include:

• Assaults or batteries in poorly lit or unmonitored parking lots
• Robberies or muggings in buildings with insufficient security personnel or cameras
• Sexual or criminal assaults in apartment complexes or hotels with broken locks or inadequate access control
• Shootings or stabbings in bars or nightclubs with a history of violent incidents

To prove an inadequate security claim, the Davis Law Center will demonstrate that the property owner was aware or should have been aware of the potential risk of criminal activity on the premises and neglected to implement reasonable measures to avert it.

Swimming Pool Accidents

Property owners with swimming pools on their premises must take reasonable steps to ensure the safety of swimmers and prevent accidents. This includes providing proper fencing and gates to prevent unauthorized access, maintaining the pool and equipment in good condition, and posting appropriate warning signs.

Examples of swimming pool accidents that may be covered under premises liability law include:

• Drownings or near-drownings from lack of supervision or inadequate safety equipment
• Slip and fall accidents on wet or slippery pool decks
• Injuries caused by defective or poorly maintained pool equipment, such as ladders or diving boards
• Injuries resulting from inadequate pool maintenance, such as chemical imbalances or unsafe water conditions

Dog Attacks

Dog bites are another common type of premises liability case that the Davis Law Center routinely handles from its office on Northwestern Highway in Farmington Hills. In Michigan, dog owners are strictly liable for bite injuries inflicted by their dogs, regardless of the owner’s knowledge of the dog’s aggressive tendencies. If dog owners in metro Detroit allow their dogs to stray and the dogs cause injury, the owners can also be held liable under the Michigan Leash Law. If you suffer injury as a result of being bitten or attacked by a dog, the Davis Law Center will hold the dog owner accountable and make sure you receive the compensation you deserve.

Amusement Park and Carnival Injuries

Amusement parks and carnivals offer a variety of rides and attractions that can pose potential risks. Property owners and ride operators must ensure patron safety by properly maintaining and inspecting rides, providing appropriate safety instructions and equipment, and verifying that patrons meet the necessary height and health requirements for each ride.

Examples of amusement park and carnival injuries that may be covered under premises liability law include:

• Injuries caused by mechanical failures or malfunctions of rides
• Falls from rides due to inadequate safety restraints or operator error
• Injuries caused by collisions or sudden stops on rides
• Slip and fall accidents on wet or cluttered walkways in the park

Slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere, at any time, and to anyone. Whether you’re walking through a Kroger supermarket, visiting a friend’s home, or strolling down a public sidewalk in Downtown Farmington, a sudden slip or trip can lead to serious injuries, mounting medical bills, and lost wages. These accidents are generally caused by the negligence of a property owner or manager who failed to maintain safe conditions or warn visitors of potential hazards. If you’ve been injured in a slip-and-fall accident in Michigan, you may be entitled to compensation from the liable party. However, it’s essential to understand that your right to take legal action is limited by a strict time frame known as the statute of limitations. Moreover, there are certain notice requirements must be complied with if suing a governmental entity. Read more to find out more Slip & Fall time limits in Michigan.

What Is the Statute of Limitations for Slip & Fall Lawsuits in Farmington Hills And Throughout Michigan?

Slip and fall time limits in Farmington Hills and Michigan are governed by statutes of limitations for Michigan personal injury cases and generally require injured individuals to file a lawsuit against the at-fault party within three years of the incident. This rule means that those who do not initiate legal action before the three-year deadline will likely be barred from recovering the compensation they deserve.

While three years might seem like a long time, the process leading up to filing a lawsuit can take longer than many people realize. We have found that securing evidence can often be challenging, and negotiations with insurance adjusters can sometimes be frustratingly slow. Furthermore, depending on the severity of your injuries, determining the total value of your losses can sometimes take many months. As such, we recommend seeking legal assistance as soon as possible after a slip-and-fall accident so your attorney can get started on your case.

What Is the Deadline for a Slip & Fall Lawsuits Against a Government Entity in Michigan?

Slip-and-fall time limits in Michigan differ when injuries are caused by a government entity, such as a municipality that failed to repair a dangerously uneven sidewalk. In these types of cases, you must file your claim within two years of the date of the injury. Furthermore, there are 120 notice deadlines, depending on the entity you are filing against. For instance, for claims arising from defective roadways or defective public buildings, the notice must be given to the appropriate governmental entity within 120 days from the date of injury. The Notice must specifically identify the exact location of the defect, the injuries suffered, and the names of all known witnesses. If your slip-and-fall occurred on a county-controlled road or bridge in Oakland County, the notice period is even shorter: just 60 days. Failure to comply with these notice provisions can be fatal to an injured person’s ability to recover damages.

What Steps Does The Davis Law Center Recommend To Avoid Missing the Deadline?

To avoid missing the deadline to file a slip-and-fall accident claim in Michigan, it is essential to act as soon as possible after the incident occurs. First, seek medical attention for your injuries, as this will provide documentation of the harm you have suffered.

Next, we recommend gathering any evidence you have related to the accident, such as photographs of the exact location where the injury occurred, witness information and statements, and the clothing and shoes you wore at the time of the incident. It is also advisable to consult with an experienced Farmington Hills slip-and-fall accident attorney as soon as possible. If you choose the Davis Law Center, we will help you understand the legal process, gather additional evidence, and ensure all necessary paperwork is filed before the limitations period expires. We will also handle all communications with insurance companies and negotiate on your behalf to secure the compensation you deserve for the harms suffered in the fall.

Being involved in a slip and fall accident can cause life-altering injuries, leading to overwhelming medical bills, lost income, and physical and emotional pain and suffering. If the accident occurred on another party’s property due to negligence, Michigan law allows you to recover compensation for these and other losses.

Working with a knowledgeable personal injury attorney can help optimize your chances of a successful claim. Here is what you need to know about Michigan’s slip and fall laws, including recent developments that may improve your chances of recovering the compensation you deserve.

Michigan’s Slip and Fall Laws

In Michigan, property owners have a legal obligation to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition. This duty of care extends to both invitees (individuals invited onto the property for business purposes) and licensees (individuals on the property with the owner’s consent). Property owners must take reasonable steps to identify and address potential hazards that could cause slip and fall accidents.

This requires property owners to exercise reasonable care in maintaining their premises, including regularly inspecting the property, promptly addressing known hazards, and providing adequate warning signs for potential dangers that cannot be immediately fixed. Failure to take these steps may constitute negligence.

If a property owner’s negligence leads to a slip and fall accident, they may be held liable for the resulting injuries and damages. To prove liability, the injured party must demonstrate that the property owner knew or should have known about the hazardous condition, failed to take reasonable steps to address it, and that this failure directly caused the accident and resulting injuries.

Overturning of the “Open and Obvious” Doctrine

Until recently, recovering compensation in a slip and fall case presented a significant challenge for injury victims in Michigan. The law stated that property owners could not be liable for a slipping or tripping hazard if it was “open and obvious.” However, the Michigan Supreme Court overturned the “open and obvious” doctrine in 2023. As such, business owners must now work harder to prevent slips and falls on their properties. If you do suffer injuries in a slip and fall accident in Michigan, your chances of filing a successful claim may now be stronger.

What to Do If You’ve Been Injured in a Slip and Fall Accident

Protect your slip and fall injury claim by taking the following steps:

• Seek Medical Attention – Even if your injuries seem minor, it’s still critical that you have a medical professional evaluate your condition. This not only ensures that you receive proper treatment but also establishes a record of your injuries, which can strengthen your claim.
• Document the Scene and Your Injuries – If possible, take photos of the accident scene, including the hazard that caused your accident, any visible injuries, and the surrounding area. Collect contact information from any eyewitnesses. Keep copies of your medical records, bills, and any correspondence related to your injuries.
• Contact an Experienced Personal Injury Attorney – An attorney can gather evidence to bolster your claim and negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf. They can also advise you on the potential value of your claim and work to secure the compensation you deserve.

Did you slip and fall on someone else’s property? If so, that person could owe you money for your medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and more. Property owners and occupiers have a legal responsibility to keep their premises safe and free from hazards, and when their failure to meet this responsibility injures lawful visitors, they can be held accountable for the consequences.

Taking the proper steps after a slip and fall accident can help maximize the compensation you receive in your claim. Here’s what you can do to protect your health and your rights.

Document the Incident

After a slip and fall accident, you should document as much information as possible about the incident. Take pictures or videos of the area where the accident occurred, capturing any hazardous conditions that may have contributed to the fall, such as spills, uneven surfaces, or poor lighting. Make sure to document the exact location, time, and date of the incident.

If there were any witnesses, collect their names and contact information. Their statements can provide valuable corroborating evidence for your claim. Additionally, report the accident to the property owner or manager, and request a copy of the incident report.

Follow Your Doctor’s Orders

Your health and well-being should be the top priority after a slip and fall accident. Seek medical attention promptly, even if you do not initially believe you have suffered severe harm. Some injuries, such as internal bleeding or head trauma, may not manifest symptoms immediately.

Follow your doctor’s treatment plan diligently, including attending follow-up appointments, taking prescribed medications, and participating in recommended physical therapy or rehabilitation sessions. Failing to follow your doctor’s orders can potentially undermine your claim, as the insurance company may argue that you contributed to the worsening of your injuries or that the appointments you attended were unnecessary.

Gather Evidence of Medical Expenses and Lost Income

To effectively pursue fair compensation for your losses, be sure to gather and maintain comprehensive documentation of all medical expenses and lost income resulting from the slip and fall accident. Keep detailed records of medical bills, receipts for prescriptions, and invoices for any medical equipment or home modifications required due to your injuries.

If you missed work due to your injuries, obtain documentation from your employer detailing the time off and any lost wages or benefits. Relevant evidence may include pay slips, tax forms, and correspondence with your human resources department.

Additionally, keep records of any out-of-pocket expenses related to your recovery, such as transportation costs for medical appointments or hiring assistance for household tasks you can no longer perform.

Avoid Giving Statements About the Accident

Be cautious about providing any statements regarding the slip and fall accident to the property owner’s insurance company or any other parties involved. Insurance adjusters may attempt to obtain information from you that could be used to minimize or deny your claim.

Instead, politely decline to give a statement and refer the insurance company to your attorney. Any communication or negotiation with the insurance company should be handled by your legal representative, who will protect your rights and represent your interests.

Contact an Experienced Michigan Slip and Fall Attorney

Working with a skilled attorney is one of the best ways for a slip-and-fall injury victim to pursue the maximum compensation available in their case. A lawyer can investigate the accident, identify all liable parties, calculate the total value of your losses, and negotiate aggressively for a fair settlement package. If the insurer is unwilling to give you the compensation you deserve, a seasoned litigator can fight for your rights in court.

It is important to note, however, that in the above instance, simply cleaning up the water and warning of the leak is a temporary solution. The store owner will need to fix that leak as soon as they are able. It is understandable that a plumber may not immediately be available, but it should be corrected in a few days. If it is found that an owner failed to fix that leak for months, it could have a major impact on your case.

A premises liability attorney can find out how long a dangerous condition existed on a piece of property and prove negligence on the part of the store owner. This is a vital piece of a negligence tort. It is best to contact a lawyer as quickly as possible because maintenance records and other vital pieces of evidence may not be kept for long.

At Davis Law Center, we know how serious the injuries can be from a slip and fall or other premises liability injuries. We will aggressively fight to get you the money you need to make you as whole as possible after an accident. If you have been injured in Detroit or anywhere in Michigan, contact Davis Law Center right away.
