San Antonio Premises Liability

If you were injured on someone else’s property and you believe negligence was involved, reach out to a premises liability attorney in San Antonio to file a claim for compensation and hold the at-fault parties responsible.

Premises liability refers to property owners’ responsibility to keep guests safe when visiting their land. Whether you visit a shopping center, a local business, an entertainment venue, or some other government entity, the owner of this property has an obligation to warn you of any hazards that have the potential to cause you harm. This can include uneven surfaces, spilled liquids, and more.

If you fell on someone else’s property and suffered significant injuries, you may have grounds for a premises liability claim. At Crain Brogdon, LLP., our lawyers have handled many injury claims and we can determine the at-fault parties. Once a defendant is named, a San Antonio premises liability lawyer will maximize your settlement by assessing all of your financial and non-financial damages.

How Premises Liability Lawsuits Are Initiated

Premises liability lawsuits are initiated when patrons are injured on public or private property. Negligence must be involved in some way for a premises liability lawsuit to stand, but because there are laws in place requiring property owners to keep patrons safe, there are numerous ways in which property owners can be deemed negligent.

Some of the most common reasons guests are injured on another person’s property include:

  • Spilled liquids
  • Recently mopped or waxed floors
  • Uneven surfaces
  • Loose floorboards, rugs, or mats
  • Potholes in parking lots
  • Unsalted ice

All of these hazards, when on another person’s property, must be property labeled with warning signs or removed promptly by the property owner. If the hazard isn’t removed or labeled and someone gets injured, the owner can be held liable. The only time the property owner won’t be held liable for an injury is if the patron was trespassing on their property when the accident occurred.

Injuries That Can Occur from Slip-and-Fall Accidents

When someone slips and falls on an uneven surface or a spilled liquid, the injuries that can result can range from severe to life-altering. Broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal damage are common because the victim is likely to fall violently on a hard surface. These types of injuries will undoubtedly bring on large medical expenses and a need for long-term medical care.

Damages You Can Recover in Premises Liability Claims

When your premises liability lawyer in San Antonio begins calculating your claim value, your medical expenses will be considered, but other economic damages will also be considered, such as property damage and loss of earning ability from being out of work. Non-economic damages will be examined, as well, which can include pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
