- Premises Liability
Your brain is the most important organ in your body, as it is responsible for all cognitive and motor skills, vision, breathing, memory, emotions, and all processes that regulate our bodies. When you fall or suffer a major injury such as a severe spinal cord or head injury, there is a lot at stake, as it can lead to major concerns that disrupt your regular ability to function and significantly decrease your quality of life overall. What’s more? Learning that such consequences could have been avoided had a property owner taken necessary safety precautions can be that much more infuriating. In today’s blog, your Dallas, TX catastrophic injury attorneys discuss some common situations that may lead to premises liability lawsuits, as well as how our team can help you obtain your rightful compensation as an injured person in a premises liability claim.
What is a Premises Liability?
Premises liability is the legal term given to a variety of situations in which property owners are held accountable for injuries endured by another person on their property. In every state across the U.S., owners occupying a property must make a reasonable effort to maintain a safe environment for visitors, and if they do not, they can be legally held accountable for their negligence. Keep in mind, however, that while every state recognizes premises liability, different states follow different rules on who exactly may recover under what conditions. To learn more about this process and what our team can do to help, give us a call today.
Looking At Different Examples
As you may know, a property owner can vary from an individual who owns their home to a small business owner or even large-scale business owners. If you or a loved one sustains an injury on someone else’s property as a result of the property owner’s carelessness or negligence, you deserve compensation. But what exactly does a premises liability look like?
Some common examples may include personal injuries from bites obtained by an animal such as a dog, slip and fall accidents, and overall dangerous property conditions. Premises liability cases are limited to situations in which an unreasonably dangerous condition exists on the property.
