PREMISES LIABILITY ATTORNEYS

Premises liability refers to injuries caused by unsafe or dangerous conditions on someone else’s property. Property owners and managers have a legal duty to keep their premises reasonably safe for visitors.

Possibly. If the fall was caused by a hazardous condition that the property owner knew about — or should have known about — and failed to fix or warn you about, you may have a valid claim.

Claims can arise from accidents at grocery stores, restaurants, apartment complexes, hotels, parking lots, office buildings, construction sites, and even private homes.

Property owners and insurance companies often try to shift blame. Even if they claim you were partially at fault, you may still be entitled to compensation under California’s comparative negligence laws.

Seeking medical care as soon as possible is important for your health and helps document your injuries. You can contact an attorney at any time — even if you haven’t completed treatment.

In most cases, California law gives you two years from the date of the injury to file a claim. Certain situations, such as injuries on government property, may have much shorter deadlines.

The absence of a warning sign can be strong evidence of negligence, especially if the hazard existed long enough that the property owner should have addressed it.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, future treatment costs, and other damages related to your injury.

Many premises liability injuries worsen over time. Delayed pain, limited mobility, or neurological symptoms can appear days or weeks later, which is why early documentation matters.

Most premises liability attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and only pay legal fees if we successfully recover compensation for you.
