Who Is Responsible for a Premises Liability Injury?
An investigation may need to be conducted to determine who is liable for your injury. Responsible parties may include:
- Property owners
- Landlords
- Governmental entities
- Renters
- Condo owners’ associations
- Lessees
We will need to present evidence that these parties are liable in order to have a successful lawsuit. We will work to prove that the liable party knew about the defect or dangerous condition of the property in question.
As personal injury attorneys, we can support this claim by reviewing maintenance records and surveillance footage, speaking with witnesses, and by hiring highly-experienced experts to help prove your case. We will offer evidence that shows the defendant(s) had the opportunity to remove the hazard and that their failure to do so directly resulted in your injury.
Insurance companies may try to fault you for your own injuries. They may claim that you knew about the defect or should have known and you did not avoid it. They may also state that you caused the defect or you should not have been on the property. We will aggressively refute these accusations when you are not at fault.
