The question depends upon who has ownership and control over the property. Which party (owner or renter) is responsible for upkeep on the sidewalk? Is there a rental agreement in place that specifies who has control over the sidewalk and the outside of the building? Usually the answer is the owner of the building, but not always.

Could be both you and the owner of the building. It depends. If there is a written lease it is not unusual for that to be dealt with in the lease. The issue will be what caused the injury. Who was at fault. If the person is hurt as a result of poor maintenance then the issue will be who has the responsibility to do the maintenance. No one is automatically responsible just because someone gets hurt on or outside of your property. But if there is a dangerous condition and you do nothing about it then you may be responsible even if it is the owners ultimate responsibility. As part of your lease there should also be a requirement for you or the owner to carry insurance. If you do not have insurance then you better check to be sure you are a named insured on the owner's policy.

Not enough information here. is your injury a direct results of the problem that led to the recall? You have 3 years from the date of malpractice. so when is that date? Why don't you see a lawyer if you thin k you have a case.
