I slipped and fell in a store. Is the business responsible?
Staff often say the spill 'just happened' moments before.

Businesses must keep premises reasonably safe. Liability usually turns on how long the hazard existed and whether staff knew or should have known. Photograph the scene immediately, ask for an incident report, identify witnesses, and keep your medical records — those four steps decide most of these cases.
