Premises Liability

Premises liability is the area of law that deals with the responsibilities of individuals who own property. Property owners are responsible for ensuring that their property remains free from hazards and dangerous conditions. If you are injured on another’s property and their negligence was the cause, then you may be entitled to compensation for your loss of income, medical bills, pain and suffering and other damages.

Premises liability accidents are common and can be caused by things that include:

• Cracked Pavement or Steps
• Uneven Pavement, Flooring or Steps
• Ice
• Wet Floors
• Leaks and Spills
• Slippery Surfaces
• Poor or Insufficient Lighting
• Exposed Electrical Outlets
• Obstructions of Walkways, Sidewalks or Doors
• Lack of Security
• Lack of Warning Signs
• Failure to Secure Dangerous Areas (like swimming pool entrances)
