Premises Liability; including slip and fall
“Premises Liability” refers to accidents that occur due to the negligent maintenance, operation or design of a property owned by someone other than the accident victim. This includes claims against a landlord on behalf of a tenant or against the landowner for injuries suffered by an individual who was lawfully on the property.
Premises liability cases cover a wide range of circumstances in which people are injured or suffer a wrongful death on a commercial or residential properties. Examples include: slip and fall injuries; trip and fall injuries; dog bite injuries; being struck in the head or body by falling merchandise at a store; suffering a bodily injury from a malfunctioning elevator or a door with a broken closing device and being assaulted because of inadequate security. Injuries can also arise from dram shop liability when a restaurant or bar serves a customer too many drinks and allows them to drive. Each set of facts giving rise to an injury on premises must be individually evaluated.
