The four main areas of tort law (based on AUSTRALIAN legal principles) are Nucience, Negligence, Defamation and Tresspass. Negligence is where a duty of care to a party has been breached by a second party Nucience is where a party interrupts the right of another party to quiet enjoyment of their property Defamation is the tort that covers a persons implied right to a good reputation Tresspass refers to the right of a person to private enjoyment of their property (i'm pretty sure) I am unsure wether this is the same in the country where you are, but these are the four civil torts that apply in australia. Please check before using this information :)

Slip and fall lawsuits are very complicated. Merely slipping and falling on someone else's property does not necessarily mean that they are legally liable for your injures. You will have to prove that the landowner or operator of the premises was negligent, and that their negligence caused your injuries. Furthermore, you will have to show that your intoxication did not cause your injuries. Because of the complexity of your case, you will need to consult with a personal injury attorney.
To ensure the best outcome for your case, I suggest you work with a personal injury attorney who has a significant part of his or her practice dedicated to premises liability (slip-and-falls). You can find these attorneys in your local phonebook, online, or by contacting your state's bar association.
If you repair a road can you be sued if someone gets hurt on the road?
If someone repairs a road, but does it badly so as to create a condition likely to cause an accident, then you might be sued. The fact that the intention was to repair a road is not enough to insulate the person from liability if the "repairs" caused some other dangerous condition.

It depends on the type of lawsuit you are filing. Contact an attorney in your state and tell him or her what type of lawsuit you are filing. He or she will be able to tell you what criteria you must meet.
What type of reply should plaintiffs give to defendants general denial?
Most likely none at all, unless the Court Rules of the state in question call for it. Under NJ court rules, once an answer is filed, plaintiff is not allowed to file a responsive pleading unless the answer raised counterclaims against plaintiff. If it does then plaintiff files an answer to the counterclaim.
