Premises Liability

What is premises liability?

Types of Premises Liability Accidents

There is a wide range of premises liability accident types – after all, the types of harm that can happen on properties owned by someone other than the victims of those accidents are nearly unlimited. If you have been harmed on someone else’s property and believe that the negligence of the property owner or manager was involved, you may have a claim. Call our lawyers today to learn more.

Common types of premises liability accidents include:

  • Slip and falls;
  • Dog bites;
  • Workplace accidents;
  • Elevator and escalator accidents;
  • Retail store accidents; and
  • More.

The Duties of a Property Owner

A property owner owes a duty to those who enter their property lawfully. The duty that a property owner owes to those who are lawfully upon property is to correct any known hazards within a reasonable amount of time. In order to be liable for the failure to do this, someone injured must be able to prove that:

  • A hazardous condition existed on the property;
  • The property owner knew or should have known of the condition;
  • The property owner failed to remedy the condition within a reasonable amount of time; and
  • The condition was the proximate cause of your injuries.
