Municipal Liability Claims
City, state and federal Governments are responsible for accidents and injuries caused by the dangerous, unsafe and hazardous condition of their property. These entities may be liable for the negligent maintenance, repair and upkeep of streets, traffic control signals, manhole accidents, sewer inlet injuries ceiling collapses, inadequate lighting, broken or missing handrails, and unsafe conditions which they create on their property. School districts and SEPTA fall under this category. Also, cities and townships can be held secondarily liable for dangerous sidewalks if the property owner has no insurance on the premises.
