Premises Liability Accidents

 A Premises liability accident is an insurance claim or lawsuit wherein the plaintiff pursues compensation for having been injured on a negligent property owners premises. Premises liability claims can entail numerous scenarios that in injury.



Perhaps the most common premises liability claim is the well known "slip and fall" claim. This is when a property owner neglects to maintain a safe place for patrons of their business. In the United States, these claims are highly particular and if you have been in a slip and fall accident you should contact an attorney to properly evaluate your claim. For example, some states have even gone into the various elements of each claim creating case law that depicts requirements of the amount of time a slippery substance must be on the floor before the reasonably prudent person standard has been satisfied.

Another premises liability claim may entail a property owner negligently maintaining there property. For example when a property owner allows their property to become a dangerous environment for invitees. This can entail a ceiling falling on a person, steps breaking underneath a patron or similar scenarios.

I have represented clients that have suffered from other premises liability claims like negligent security. One claim involved a client that sat on a couch in a cabana pool area. He dropped his phone down the side of the couch cushion and reached down to try and find it. When he reached down to try and find his phone a syringe stuck him several times. When he examined the syringe it turned out to be a used hypodermic needle, the kind used for shooting up heroin. There was evidence that suggested the needle had been there for quite some time.

Premises liability claims can entail a vast array of different scenarios and If you have been injured on someone's property you should contact me for a free consultation.

When a person gets into a car accident most of the time the local authorities will respond to the scene. They arrive at the scene assess the situation and issue a drivers exchange of information. Why The Drivers Exchange of Information is Important. When the local authorities arrive on the scene they usually speak to each driver, passengers and any witnesses. The officer will typically collect information about every one they talk to and what the officers findings were. The officer will then put this information in a police report. Generally, the police report is not available immediately and cannot be obtained for a few days or even weeks after the accident.
