Claim it before someone else doesEast Palo Alto is a compact, busy city where people move between corridors like University Avenue, E Bayshore Road, and Bay Road for shopping, transit, and daily errands. Falls happen in the places locals rely on every day: grocery store aisles, apartment stairwells near Bay Road, parking lots off US-101, and sidewalks along University Avenue. Under California law, a property owner or manager isn't automatically responsible just because someone fell on their property. The injured person generally has to show the owner knew, or reasonably should have known, about the hazard and didn't fix it or warn about it. That's why what happens right after a fall matters. Photos of the spill, broken step, or torn carpet, along with any surveillance footage, can shape whether a claim holds up. We handle these cases directly and can evaluate what happened and explain your options.
California requires showing the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard and failed to address it. We can help gather evidence, like maintenance logs or prior complaints, that speaks to this.
Many East Palo Alto retailers and apartment complexes overwrite security footage within days or weeks. Acting quickly to request preservation of that video can be critical to a claim.

*No attorney's fee unless there is a recovery. The client may be responsible for court costs and case expenses.
California uses pure comparative fault, meaning even if you're found partly responsible for the fall, you may still recover a reduced amount rather than nothing at all.
