Defendant's Attorney: Alexandria, Virginia insurance defense lawyer represented the Defendant.

Description: Alexandria, Virginia personal injury slip and fall lawyer represented the Plaintiff who sued on a premises liability negligence theory.

This case was filed in the Fairfax County Circuit Court, CL-22-0013195, and was removed to federal court by the Defendant.

Virginia law is clear that owners and/or occupants of a premises may be held liable for injuries caused to other people by the conditions on that premises. However, establishing the duty a property owner or occupant owes to an injured person requires a somewhat complicated analysis.
