Premises Liability

Did you suffer an injury on someone else’s property? Was your injury caused by some kind of hazard on that property?

If so, you very well may have what’s called a “Premises Liability” case. Property owners have a responsibility to maintain a safe environment for visitors. If the property owners don’t make a reasonable effort to do so and visitors are injured, then the injured parties are eligible for compensation.

What is Premises Liability?

Essentially, the owner of a property must make a reasonable effort to create a safe environment for visitors to their property. That doesn’t just mean making the property itself safe, but it can also mean making visitors aware of any hazards that could be on the property.

Too many property owners, alas, don’t do that. If you’re injured on someone else’s property due to their inability to maintain a safe environment, we can help.

What Kind of Compensation Could You Receive for a Premises Liability Injury?

In the state of California, you could be eligible for economic as well as non-economic compensation. This means you can recover compensation for medical bills that you’re facing as a result of the injury as well as medical bills that you may face in the future. Therapy, medications, doctor’s visits, and similar costs – that’s “economic” compensation.

Non-economic compensation, on the other hand, covers the intangible. Your pain, your suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and so forth – you can receive compensation for all of that and more as well.

When you meet with the Law Offices of Samuel Ogbogu for a free case evaluation, he will go through your case thoroughly. From there, he’ll let you know if you have a case.

How Do I Know If I Have a Premises Liability Case?

According to California law, you have a premises liability case if the owner of the property had a duty of care to you, they breached that duty, and the breach caused you to suffer an injury.

Perhaps the most common type of premises liability case is one that involves a slip and fall. You’re on someone’s property, you slip, fall, and are injured. The owner/occupiers failed to maintain the property adequately, and you are harmed as a result of that negligence.

While that’s the most common, it’s by no means the only kind of premises liability injury. These can also include ceiling collapses, dog/animal bites, inadequate security, maintenance, and so much more.

Often, the liable party in a case like this is the owner of the property. However, it could also be the landlord, the last party to repair the property, and others.

Once we take your case we’ll find exactly all of the liable parties in your case. Then, we’ll bring a suit against all responsible so that you recover maximum compensation.

As these cases can become so complicated so quickly, it’s worth it to reach out to an experienced attorney who can help.
