Can I sue if I slipped and fell on a sidewalk or parking lot in Michigan?

Yes, you can potentially sue if you slipped and fell on a sidewalk or parking lot in Michigan, depending on the circumstances. Property owners, including municipalities and businesses, have a duty to maintain reasonably safe conditions on their premises, which may include sidewalks and parking lots.

However, suing for injuries sustained on public property can be more complex than suing a private property owner. Governmental entities may have sovereign immunity protections or specific procedures for filing claims, which can affect your ability to recover compensation. Consulting with a knowledgeable personal injury attorney is crucial for understanding your legal options in these cases.
