What is Premises Liability?

When someone has an accident on public or private property or a residence, they are subject to laws known as premises liability. These laws govern the handling and care of facilities open to the public. Property owners and landowners in California have a duty of care to keep their properties, facilities, and buildings reasonably safe. When they fail to uphold that duty of care and someone is hurt, they may be faced with liability and a lawsuit that awards damages to the injured party. Those responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of any premises people go to have a duty of care to ensure that the facilities are always safe for visitors, vendors, employees, and anyone else who visits. That duty of care involves (but is not limited to):

• • Regular inspection
  • Maintenance
  • Repair of facilities,
  • Warnings where needed (example: 'Wet Floor" Signs)
  • Construction zone safety

Do I Have a Premises Liability Claim?

That depends. If you or someone you love has been injured from unsafe conditions on someone else's property, you might have a claim.

What To Do If You've Been Injured Due to Unsafe Premises

We understand that nobody expects to be injured when they attend a concert, go for a walk on government sidewalks, or visit a friend with a dog. But accidents happen, and oftentimes there are injuries because of those accidents. Despite the circumstances, it's essential you know what to do so you can heal and be adequately compensated. Here are a few things to keep in mind directly following your injury:

Seek Medical Care

No matter how minor your injuries seem, seeking medical care is essential. Having a doctor's exam, you will have your injuries documented and could even catch new injuries you did not know about. Sometimes injuries can take a few days to show up because your adrenalin is working hard to keep you moving.

Take Pictures of What Caused the Injury

Injuries usually happen because of railing breaks, slippery floors that weren't labeled, or negligent security. No matter what the cause of your injuries is, make sure to capture the scene the best you can before leaving.  The images of the scene will be necessary for your case.

Get Names and Insurance Information

A lot of times, the facility or building you're at might have premises liability insurance. Try to contact a manager or owner and get their information for us. Remember- do not talk with any insurance adjusters without first talking to us. Insurers are there to protect themselves and pay the least amount possible.
