One attorney. One city. Unlimited potential
Claim it before someone else doesSanta Ana is home to roughly 335,400 people, and much of daily life here happens on property that belongs to someone else: strip-mall parking lots along Bristol Street, storefronts on 1st Street, apartment stairwells, restaurants, and the county buildings that anchor downtown. When a floor is left slick, a walkway is left cracked, or a stairway is left dark, the person who falls often carries the cost while the property owner carries on. California premises liability law asks a fairly direct question: did the owner or operator know about the hazard, or should they have known, and did they fail to fix it or warn about it? That element, called notice, usually decides these cases. It is why photos of the spill, the names of witnesses, and a prompt request for surveillance footage matter so much. LawProactive is not a law firm. We are a free service that connects injured Santa Ana residents with an independent attorney who works on contingency, so you owe no attorney fee unless there is a recovery.
In California you generally must show the owner knew or should have known about the hazard and did nothing. An attorney can pursue inspection logs, prior complaints and maintenance records that a person on their own rarely obtains.
Many Santa Ana stores and complexes overwrite surveillance footage within days. An attorney can send a preservation demand early, before the recording of your fall is gone.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
You typically have two years to file, but far less if the property belongs to a city, county or other public entity. California's pure comparative fault rule also means a claim can proceed even if you were partly at fault; your recovery is simply reduced by your share.
