Focus on Recovery — Kornbluth Ginsberg Law Group, P.A., Can Manage Your Case
Premises liability law protects those who have been injured on another person’s property. Not all personal injuries are covered under these laws — a condition of direct negligence on the part of the property owner must be met to qualify an incident as a premises liability case. In general, these laws protect those who are lawful visitors to the property from hazards that the property owner or custodian either negligently caused or failed to correct and resulted in injuries to the lawful visitor.
What Qualifies as a Premises Liability Case?
Injuries sustained at a business or residence, as a result of owner, renter, or staff carelessness, can be classified as premises liability cases.
Slip and fall cases are some of the most common premises liability injuries. Conditions such as:
- Raised floorboards,
- Inadequate stair covers and railings,
- Slippery floors, and
- Anything that causes someone to trip and fall
can be grounds for a case.
Dog bites and harm caused by a lack of security on the property can also qualify as premises liability cases, depending on the facts of the particular case.
What to Do if a Property Owner’s Negligence Caused Your Injury
Some property owners and renters have premises liability coverage included in their insurance policy. There are also sometimes applicable policies that may cover medical expenses up to a certain amount for injuries on the property, whether the owner is liable or not, which is often referred to as “no-fault” coverage.
However, some places are not covered by premises liability insurance, and even those that are may not provide you with the proper benefits upon injury. If you believe you have a case, enlist the help of our Durham premises liability attorneys to ensure you receive just compensation.
