When Is a Landlord Considered Negligent?
The Landlord Failed to Handle a Dangerous Living Condition
Landlords are legally required to fix hazardous conditions as soon as they become aware of them. If a broken railing or faulty wiring goes unaddressed and someone gets hurt, the landlord is responsible for their negligence in failing to provide a safe living environment.
The Landlord Knew of a Risk or Hidden Danger But Failed to Notify or Act
If the landlord is aware of hidden dangers, like uneven floors or unsafe structural elements, they must notify tenants and take action. When they fail to warn or address these issues, and injuries occur, the landlord can be held liable for damages.
The Accident Was Foreseeable
Certain accidents, like slips or falls from broken stairs, are foreseeable, and landlords must take preventive action. If the landlord knew about the issue and ignored it or failed to warn the tenant while waiting for repairs, they are at fault for any resulting injuries.
The Cost and Feasibility of the Repair Was Reasonable to Avoid Danger
If a simple repair could have prevented an accident, but the landlord chose to ignore it, they are liable for the injury. Reasonable steps like installing warning signs or fixing broken elements in a timely manner are part of the landlord’s duty of care.
Common Apartment Injuries Caused by Negligence
- Slips, trips, and falls from broken flooring, stairs, or unlit hallways.
- Injuries from faulty elevators left unrepaired.
- Burns or electrocution from exposed wires or faulty systems.
- Health issues from mold or water damage due to neglected leaks.
- Injuries from falling debris like cracked ceilings or loose fixtures.
- Carbon monoxide poisoning from malfunctioning heaters or gas leaks.

Why Do You Need a Lawyer for Apartment Issues from Mokaram Personal Injury Law Firm?
The truth is, landlords don’t care about your injuries, they care about protecting their wallets.
That’s why you need an apartment injury lawyer who isn’t afraid to hit back hard. We don’t just negotiate; we demand compensation for your medical bills, pain, suffering, and loss of income.
And if the landlord’s insurance company thinks they can wiggle out of it, they have got another thing coming.
We are furious that your landlord didn’t care enough to keep you safe, and we are going to make them pay for their negligence.

FAQ's
Frequently Asked Questions
A landlord-tenant lawyer or premises liability lawyer specializes in legal issues between tenants and landlords. They handle cases involving disputes over lease agreements, property maintenance, evictions, and injuries caused by landlord negligence.
Local housing authorities and government agencies, such as the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), regulate apartments and ensure that landlords comply with health, safety, and housing codes at the city, state, and federal levels.
Tenants have the right to live in safe, habitable conditions, free from hazards, and the right to request timely repairs. They are also protected from unlawful eviction and discrimination and have the right to privacy as outlined in the lease agreement and local laws.
Tenants can file complaints with local housing authorities, HUD, or their state’s consumer protection agency. If the issue remains unresolved, consulting a lawyer can help escalate the case and seek compensation.
Uninhabitable conditions include lack of heat or water, structural hazards like broken stairs, severe mold infestations, pest problems, or unsafe electrical wiring. If these conditions pose health or safety risks, the landlord is responsible for fixing them.
