I appreciate everyone's responses. I cannot change what happened. I am indeed concerned about my liabilities.  At the same time, my heart genuinely goes out to the man and his family.

He had severe internal bleeding. Unable to communicate. Need to have his scalp sawed in half for surgery. Just very bad:(

I do have an umbrella insurance--3.5mil.  

I don't understand why I am responsible for his injury in the manner described above. I know I am responsible for asking him to check the roof and possibly work on it.  We never agreed on the price.  He brought another person who actually went on the roof and fixed it.  He fell before even getting on the roof.  In fact, this friend fixed(fixed) the roof without me knowing what type of damage and the cost of the repair.

He is now being incubated.

Hi all. I am wondering what my liability is when someone fell down my roof. Recently it was raining hard. Tenant called me, and I asked another tenant who had repaired roofs for me before. He has no license. He then took his neighbor along with him.  The brought the neighbor's ladder to the home with the roof leak.  The neighbor went up the roof then the handyman tenant went up too, but while near the roof, the ladder slid and he fell to the concrete driveway.  He was in and out of consciousness and spit out blood. He is now being incubated.  He has been a good and friendly tenant to me.  The neighbor who went with him said the roof was fine except a small hole near a pipe, and he patched the hole.  My concern is how liable I am for his injury?  

Thank you,

Kim
