What is Premises Liability?

Lawyer for Los Angeles Premises Liability Claims

Premises liability refers to the potential legal responsibility of a property owner in regard to accidents or injuries that occur on his or her property. In certain situations, the owner of controller of a property may be held accountable for injuries that occur to lawful visitors or customers. The specific laws in regard to this will vary depending on the particular case, but most premises liability claims result from a property owner's negligence in ensuring that property grounds are reasonably safe and free from hazardous conditions that may cause injury to visitors.

Slip and fall accidents are one of the most common types of premises liability claims. Additional cases of this kind may include construction site accidents, dog bites, assaults or attacks from poor security, and daycare negligence. In some cases, the local government may even be held accountable if it was their negligent maintenance of city parks, streets or other property that led to a victim's injuries. A victim who files a premises liability claim may be able to seek financial damages for medical care, lost wages, emotional trauma, pain and suffering, future lost earnings, and possibly more.
