There are countless Premises Liability injuries that could lead to claims. The most common type of injury is related to a slip and fall.
For example, an employee mops a floor at a business and doesn't put up a wet floor sign. If you slip and fall, you may have a valid claim. Likewise, a customer drops a drink on the ground and the business employees see it and don't clean it up. If you slip and fall, you may have a valid claim. Even if the employees don't see it, but sufficient time passes without cleaning up the spill, you may have a valid claim.

If you have been injured due to a property owner's negligence, you may be entitled to compensation.
