This includes making sure all buildings are in good repair, floors are dry and free of trip hazards, and that other dangers, like falling objects or dangerous dogs, are mitigated.

How A Douglasville Premises Liability Lawyer Can Help You
Premises liability lawyers help injured victims demand fair compensation from the property owner, property manager, and other liable party responsible for creating unsafe conditions or permitting unsafe conditions to persist. Property owners must take reasonable steps to make repairs and provide adequate safety, like locks on the doors or handrails on stairs. Failure to do so, or otherwise disregarding the safety of others, can mean that the owner or manager is liable for injuries that happen. They may have to pay for the injured victim’s medical care and other losses.
Our premises liability attorneys investigate your accident, gathering evidence that the property owner failed in their duty to keep the premises safe. We analyze security videos or other footage of the incident, review safety and maintenance records, and interview witnesses to build our case against the negligent property owner.
Proving Liability In Complex Premises Liability Claims
Proving liability in a premises liability case is critical to ensuring you receive full and fair compensation for all your losses. We must establish:
- The property owner had a responsibility to ensure your safety
- They failed to take reasonable steps to do so
- This failure led to the accident and your injuries
- You suffered financial losses because of the accident
Then, we accurately value your claim, including medical treatment, pain and suffering, missed wages if you couldn’t work, and a diminished quality of life. We’re focused on your interests and yours alone and are determined to achieve a positive resolution for your premises liability claim.
Legal Assistance And Advice You Can Count On
