Injured on Someone Else’s Property? Get the Compensation You Deserve
Nobody expects to be injured when they go out for dinner, to see a movie or to do a little shopping. But unfortunately, accidents happen – and sometimes those accidents can have serious consequences. Sometimes, an accident is just that – an accident; but all too often, injuries occur as a result of the negligence of the property owner.
The owner of a property or business has an obligation to ensure their tenants and customers are safe while on their property. When they fail to take reasonable steps to ensure that safety, they can be held liable for damages when an accident occurs. That’s called “premises liability,” and what it means is that the owner knew or should have known there was a danger or hazard but failed to take steps to prevent an accident from occurring.

Slip and Fall Injuries
Among premises liability claims, slip and fall accidents are one of the most common types. Falls can cause lots of injuries, from lacerations and sprains to serious fractures and head and neck trauma. It’s not uncommon for a fall to result in tens of thousands of dollars in medical and therapy costs, not to mention lost wages.
Falling merchandise is another type of liability issue that can cause significant damage, especially during the busy holiday shopping season when overloaded shelves can be less than stable. A falling item can easily cause head and neck trauma and result in many thousands of dollars in related medical costs.

Negligent Security
In recent years, negligent security has taken center stage as incidents of sexual assaults and even shootings have occurred on premises like apartment complexes and shopping malls that had not taken steps to provide adequate security. When these crimes occur, the focus is often restricted to the criminal aspects of the case, and while those aspects are obviously essential, it’s also important to receive compensation for the injuries and pain and suffering you experience as a result of the crime.
