Win Your Case with Our California Premises Liability Lawyer

No one walks into a business expecting to suffer an injury on the premises. However, dangerous conditions at businesses and other properties cause serious injuries to property visitors each year. California law requires that property owners keep their property reasonably safe for visitors. When they fail to do so, injuries can occur. If you were hurt on someone’s property in the California area, contact a California premises liability attorney today. If the property owner’s negligence caused your injuries, they can be held legally responsible for your damages. This means that you can sue the property owner for costs you incurred related to your injuries, including medical bills. To learn more, contact an experienced California accident lawyer today.

Types of Accidents

Dangerous conditions on business or residential property can lead to any number of accidents. The most common type of these accidents is a slip and fall. A slip and fall accident may not immediately seem dangerous, but falls can cause severe injury. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently reported that falls are the leading cause of injuries and injury-related death for older Americans. While not every slip and fall accident is necessarily caused by a dangerous condition on the property, many are. Slip and fall accidents and other accidents attributed to property owner negligence can cause injuries such as:

  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Spinal injuries
  • Broken bones
  • Torn muscles
  • Deep lacerations
  • Internal damage
  • Sprains
  • Joint dislocations
  • Bruising or scarring

Injuries such as those listed above can result in high medical bills. An injured victim may be forced to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars out of pocket for urgent medical care. In some cases, the injured victim requires long-term care, such as physical therapy or in-home care, adding more financial burden to their situation. Anyone injured as a result of a property owner’s negligence should contact a California premises liability lawyer right away to explore their legal options.

Property Owner Negligence

When a property owner’s negligence caused injury to another, the injured victim can sue the owner for compensation for their medical bills, lost wages, and other damages. In California, negligence means that a property owner failed to take reasonable care to avoid harm befalling property visitors. This does not mean that the owner must make the property perfectly safe for anyone who enters the premises. Rather, this standard means that property owners who have control over the premises must take reasonable precautions to either fix dangerous conditions or warn visitors about those conditions. For example, if a store owner notices a spill on the floor that could cause injury to a customer, the owner has an obligation to either clean it up or warn customers about it. If the owner knows (or should have known) about the spill and does nothing, causing injury to a customer, they behaved negligently. However, not every premises accident is not so clear cut as this example. Determining negligence can be complicated depending on the exact situation, particularly when someone suffered injured on residential, rather than commercial, property. An experienced California premises liability lawyer can help injured victims determine who is liable for their injuries.
