CASE DESCRIPTION:

Premise liability law protects individuals who have been injured in a fall due to the negligence or willful disregard of the property owner where the incident took place.

There are several categories of falls that are eligible for compensation from the property owner, including but not limited to:

• Slip-and-fall - Insufficient warning of a slippery or wet walking surface
• Trip-and-fall - an object blocked the way with no safety barrier or warning of its presence
• Step-and-fall - a hole or other uneven aspect to the area, causing you to lose your balance
• Stump-and-fall - a protrusion causes you to stop short and fall

If your injury falls into one of these categories, please do not hesitate to contact us. We'll assess your incident and if you have cause to file a premise liability suit, we will fight for your rights and make sure you receive the compensation you deserve.

Residential and business property owners have a legal obligation to make sure their property is safe and properly maintained, and to warn people who enter the premises of any unsafe conditions.

Slip-and-fall or trip-and-fall injuries happen when someone slips or trips and falls on someone else’s property because of a dangerous or hazardous condition. Conditions leading to these kinds of injuries can include water, snow, ice, uneven flooring or sidewalks, poor lighting or some other hazard.
