One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesA fall rarely feels like a legal matter in the moment. You are embarrassed, maybe shaken, and mostly trying to get back up. In Ontario, those moments happen in grocery aisles, apartment stairwells, parking structures, and along the storefronts of Euclid Avenue, anywhere a property owner let a hazard sit unaddressed. Under California premises liability law, that last part matters most. To hold an owner responsible, you generally have to show they knew about the hazard, or reasonably should have, and failed to fix it or warn you. Lawyers call this "notice," and proving it usually comes down to evidence that disappears quickly: surveillance footage, incident reports, and the condition of the floor or walkway that day. LawProactive is a free service, not a law firm. We connect people hurt on someone else's property in San Bernardino County with an independent personal injury attorney who handles these claims on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery. Reaching out early gives that attorney a real chance to request the footage before it is overwritten.
California requires proof that the owner knew or should have known about the hazard. The independent attorneys in our network know which records, cleaning logs, and prior complaints tend to show that.
Many Ontario stores, warehouses, and complexes overwrite camera footage within days. Getting an attorney involved quickly means a preservation request can go out before the evidence is gone.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
You generally have two years to file, but far less if a public entity owns the property, and California's pure comparative fault rule means being partly at fault does not bar a claim. A network attorney can explain how both apply to your situation.
