Have you ever visited a local store or restaurant and been injured as a result of the property owners failure to properly maintain the property. Premises Liability is the liability for the property owner for certain injuries to persons on the property.  These injuries can range from injuries caused by a variety of hazardous conditions, including slippery floors, damaged pavement, bad lighting, hidden holes, improper floor mats, icy walkways, snow covered drive/walkways, defective stairways and many other defective and/or dangerous conditions. 

 

WHAT MUST BE PROVEN TO MAKE A PREMISE LIABILITY CLAIM?

Every case we evaluate is determined based upon the specific facts of the injury.  Generally, to bring a negligence claim for Premises Liability, several things must be investigated and be present:

• Condition of the Property: You must be able to prove there was a hazardous condition on the property which was dangerous.  This condition could be an icy sidewalk, a slippery floor, a displaced floor mat, a defective stairway or improper lightings, or a number of different hazardous conditions.

• Injury/Damage: You must be able to prove that as a result of the defective condition of the property you have evidence of an injury.  Our law firm will assist you in this area by working with you and your medical professionals, witnesses and employers to support our client to prove the injury element of the claim.

• Owner Negligence: You must be able to prove that your injury was a result of the property owner’s negligence, or failure to exercise a reasonable level of care to maintain a safe premises.  The “level of care” required by a property owner can vary widely depending upon the facts of each case, but we will assist our clients in determining if the accident was foreseeable/preventable.  How long has the dangerous condition existed on the property?  Were there proper warnings on the property?  Was our client a visitor on the property?  What is the common use or intended use of the property?
