Fort Worth Premises Liability

If you got injured on someone else’s property, you may have grounds for a premises liability lawsuit. Contact a premises liability attorney in Fort Worth to determine who’s at fault for your injuries and to obtain compensation.

The state of Texas has a premises liability law in place that protects invitees when they get injured on the property of someone else. If you go to the movies, the grocery store, or a shopping mall and slip-and fall on a wet surface, you can end up with a serious brain injury or broken bones. You may end up needing to take time off work while medical expenses continue to accumulate.

You shouldn’t have to pay for the expenses from your injuries when you weren’t responsible for the accident. Premises liability laws make the property owner responsible for removing any hazards or warning you of these hazards. At Crain Brogdon, LLP., a Fort Worth premises liability lawyer can help you obtain the compensation you deserve by filing a civil lawsuit.

Reasons Slip-and-Fall Accidents Happen

Slip-and-fall accidents are the most common reason for premises liability lawsuits. Although you can be injured on another person’s property in other ways, these accidents happen most frequently and show blatant negligence on behalf of the property owner. Slip-and-fall accidents usually happen because of spilled liquids, unsalted ice, uneven surfaces, or recently mopped floors.

When these hazards are in walkways without warning signs, guests can easily fall and severely injure themselves. The property owner has an obligation to remove or warn guests of these hazards if they want to waive their liability for any accidents that occur.

Injuries That Can Result from Slipping and Falling

Broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal damage can all result from a guest unexpectedly slipping and falling on a hard surface. When these injuries are in their most severe cases, the victim can be paralyzed, lose brain and motor function, and require lifelong medical care. The medical expenses related to these injuries can be astronomical.

If you’ve experienced severe injuries from a slip-and-fall accident or some other accident that happened on someone else’s property, your premises liability lawyer in Fort Worth will discuss your diagnosis with your doctor and incorporate all of your medical expenses, both present and future, into your claim value.

When Can a Property Owner Be Liable?

The property owner will be held liable in your accident as long as it can be proved that the accident happened on their land and negligence was involved. The only time the property owner won’t be held liable is if a warning sign was placed over a hazard and you blatantly ignored it or if you were trespassing on their property when you were injured.

Consult a Fort Worth Premises Liability Attorney

It can be devastating to deal with the consequences of a slip-and-fall accident. Recovery can take months and sometimes years. Although money may not cure all of your troubles, healing without added financial stress can make the process easier. At Crain Brogdon, LLP., we’ll work tirelessly to secure a maximized settlement.
