Can I sue a roommate for injuries caused by carelessness?

Roommate negligence causing injury may support claims with homeowner’s/renter’s insurance potentially covering. Intentional acts excluded from coverage. Lease agreements affecting duty allocation examined. Common area versus private space injuries different. Assumption of risk for known habits limited. Prior incidents establishing foreseeability important. Visitor versus resident status affects duties. Landlord liability for dangerous roommate continuing. Domestic violence situations special considerations. Small claims court common for minor injuries.
