Premises Liability

If you have been injured on private, public or government owned property, it is important that you document your injury and speak with an attorney.

It is important to know that landowners have a duty to keep their property in a safe condition and to warn people of any potential hazards


If you have been injured while on someone else’s property, you may be entitled to recover monetary compensation for your injuries. Unsafe conditions on property frequently result from:

  • Inadequate lighting
  • Slippery floors and surfaces
  • Uneven walking surfaces and stairways
  • Inadequate or missing handrails
  • Old and rotted wooden structures
  • Cluttered or debris-filled walkways
  • Potholes

If you are injured on someone else’s property, it is critical that you document your injury as thoroughly as possible.

File accident reports with the owner of the property and take pictures of the dangerous condition that caused your injury as soon as you can. Most landowners will make efforts to repair the condition to prevent future accidents, and you will be left without any photographic or physical evidence of the condition that caused your injury. If you tripped and fell or slipped and fell, the shoes you were wearing at the time of your injury are a key piece of evidence. KEEP YOUR SHOES, but DO NOT continue to wear them.

If you have been injured on public or government owned property, it is important you speak with an attorney right away, since in the vast majority of cases you must file a government claim within 6 months from the date of your injury. Failure to do so will prohibit you from ever collecting any compensation from the governmental entity responsible for your injury.
