Key Legal Principles:- Burden of Proof: The injured person must show the owner had actual or constructive knowledge of the hazard.
- Comparative Negligence: You can still recover compensation even if partially at fault; your award is reduced by your percentage of fault.
- Statute of Limitations: You have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a claim.
- Recoverable Damages: Medical bills, rehabilitation, lost income, pain and suffering, and long-term disability.
