i need some help on something that's been buggin me for a while, which I've never had happen to me, so I'm trying to have my ass covered. Let's say you're working on a seasonal project; you clean a site and go home for the night. In that time, while snow is still falling and someone falls and breaks a leg, so who's at fault here?
 
If you cleared the site and snow falls after, you're likely not at fault unless your contract says otherwise. be sure your agreement is clear about your responsibility and timing. If it's not your job to clear after hours, the fall isn't on you, finito

Yeah sure you cleaned it but honestly you still have some liability. Did you add signs or something that there's ongoing project there? Does your contract have some provision or something for this situation?

It's not your fault, I'm sure. But @Livin'OnAPrayer is right. If you lack the signs, you can still be liable.

well, you've done your job, right? the person wants to sue you or something? if this happens, you need to consult a lawyer
