Do you mean someone else other than the business? It depends on who "someone else" is. If "someone else" is an employee of the business, than you may be able to sue the business under agency law (the employee, in the eyes of the law, is acting as the business). If you mean "someone else" as in someone who has no stake in the business, you will probably only be able to sue that individual. I am assuming you fell on the business' property and that is where you feel you may have a claim against the business. If some action or lack of action on the part of the business or one of its employees (acting as employees) caused your injury, you may have a claim against them. If a third party intentionally injured you on the business' property, you may only have a claim against the business if the business reasonably should have foreseen that a violent act would occur on its property but failed to take steps to reduce the risk (e.g. if you broke your collarbone when you were being mugged and there is a history of such crimes on that property or in the vicinity).

You should consult an attorney (which I am not) for a full, professional review of your legal rights and potential claims.

you will have to try and notify them to come get it and keep all records of phone calls and letters sent to them letters must be certified if they do not come get it after all this and at least 30 days it is safe to say it is yours and they would have to take you to court try and get it back and at that point you could charge them storage fee


Can you get homeowners insurance on someone elses property?

You must have an insurable interest to effect valid coverage. Property must be insured in the name of the owner. So if you want to buy someone else a policy for their property you can certainly pay the bill for some else's property insurance but you can not insure it in your own name. If you insured someone else's home in any name other than the legal property owner and it burned down or suffered some other loss, the Insurance company can not legally pay your claim simply because the property does not belong to you. They would also not have to pay the owner because he or she was not an insured on the policy. The proper way to insure it would be under the name of the legal owner, If you also have an insurable interest in the property, then your name can be added as a co-insured. Should a claim arise, the claim check would be issued under both names.
