Yes, your mom may have a valid case if she can show the restaurant’s negligence caused her slip and fall. State law doesn’t impose strict liability for injuries on business premises—you must prove the restaurant knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn customers. Evidence like surveillance footage, incident reports, or witness statements can help establish fault.
