Premises Injuries

Premises liability cases generally fall into two main categories. The first is what is commonly known as a "slip and fall" case. The other main area concerns "inadequate security and defective conditions". Usually, the main legal hurdle a claimant has to overcome is proving that the premises owner had knowledge or constructive knowledge of a dangerous condition which caused the accident. An immediate investigation is often the most important key to a successful result. It is very important to obtain witnesses' names and photographs of the site before the premises owner has an opportunity to remedy and correct the dangerous condition. We will help you do this.
