Understanding Premises Liability Cases

Injured on someone else's property?

Property owners are responsible to maintain their land, and keep it free of dangerous obstacles, or to provide adequate warning for visitors. This is called premises liability and must be adhered to for the safety of others. Premises liability covers everything from dangerous obstacles on the ground such as tree roots creating a tripping hazard, or water on a hard surface creating a slip and fall hazard to machinery or materials at a high point that could pose a fall and crush threat.

There are many different ways for a person to be injured, some of the more common premises liability injuries that occur involve slip and fall accidents, and dog bites. These are very serious injuries and could even lead to other more serious injuries. Dog bites can lead to infection and even amputation, while slip and fall accidents can lead to brain damage and loss of functionality. If you or a loved one has been injured in a premises liability situation, then you may be able to collect monetary compensation for your injuries. Our lead attorney, James Wood, will be able to help in your claim for compensation.
