Your Rights and Premises Liability

Premises liability actions provide recourse against property owners, landlords, and security companies that failed to repair or maintain premises to keep all tenants or visitors safe. You may be entitled to compensation if an individual or entity had warning of a defect and failed to make a repair leaving a broken light, broken lock or broken gate. You may also be entitled to compensation if you slip and fall in a commercial or residential establishment. However, evidence must be preserved which requires prompt action on behalf of the injured party. Our firm will take an aggressive approach, collect all necessary evidence and aggressively pursue your claim.

We are experienced in premises liability claims involving:

  • Slip and fall
  • Trip and fall
  • Negligent security
  • Defective security system
  • Failed locks
  • Broken stairwell
  • Broken railings
  • Electrical defects
  • Fire injuries and accidents

Negligent Security Claims and Your Rights After an Attack

While you are most likely involved in a criminal investigation after a sexual assault, attack or robbery, it is important to know your full rights under civil law. In addition to recovering compensation from your attacker, you may also be eligible to recover from any security company or landlord whose negligence played a role in the attack. If a fire escape was left hanging too low, a lock was not fixed or a broken light created an unsafe environment, a landlord may be liable for premises liability.

The law is not easy, so you need a tough, smart lawyer to help you achieve the best possible results. Our firm offers quality legal representation at discounted fees.
