How a Premises Liability Lawyer Can Help After an Injury

Premises liability law addresses injuries caused by unsafe or dangerous conditions on property. These claims can arise at stores, restaurants, apartment buildings, workplaces, hotels, parking lots, private homes, public spaces, and many other locations.

A premises liability claim generally requires more than showing that an injury happened on someone else’s property. The circumstances surrounding the hazard, who controlled the property, whether the dangerous condition was known or should have been discovered, and what steps were taken to correct or warn about it may all become important.

Leonard Injury Firm investigates these issues, gathers available evidence, identifies potentially responsible parties and insurance coverage, documents the effects of the injury, and handles negotiations or litigation when necessary.

We fight because we care.

The Leonard Injury Firm on your side, fighting for your right to full & fair compensation.

Documenting Your Injuries and Losses

Negotiating or Filing a Lawsuit

    All Your Questions Answered About Premises Liability Law

    What is a premises liability claim?
    A premises liability claim involves an injury allegedly caused by an unsafe or dangerous condition on property. Depending on the circumstances, a property owner, business, landlord, tenant, maintenance company, or another party responsible for the property may potentially be liable.
    What do I need to prove in a premises liability case?
    The specific requirements depend on the applicable law and circumstances. Important issues may include who controlled the property, what dangerous condition existed, whether the responsible party knew or should have known about it, whether reasonable steps were taken to address the hazard, and whether the condition caused the injury.
    What should I do after being injured on someone else’s property?
    Seek appropriate medical attention and report the accident to the property owner, manager, or business when possible. Photographs or video of the condition, witness information, incident reports, and other evidence can also become important because property conditions may change quickly after an accident.
    Who can be responsible for an unsafe property?
    Potentially responsible parties can include property owners, landlords, tenants, businesses, property management companies, contractors, maintenance companies, and others responsible for controlling or maintaining the area where the injury occurred.
    How long do I have to file a premises liability claim?
    Deadlines depend on the state, type of property, parties involved, and other circumstances. Claims involving government-owned property can have additional requirements. Determining the applicable deadline early is important.
    How much does it cost to hire Leonard Injury Firm?
    Leonard Injury Firm handles premises liability matters on a contingency fee basis. There are no upfront legal fees, and the firm receives a fee only if compensation is recovered. The initial consultation is free.
