A New Jersey resident who slips, trips or falls on another's property may be able to recover damages via a premises liability claim. Several requirements must be met, though. First, victims must be lawful entrants. Second, it must be clear that the property owner failed in their duty of care to entrants either by neglecting to repair a safety hazard or failing to foresee a hazard. Hazards range from wet floors and cracked pavement to poor lighting and loose rails.
