Understanding Premises Liability

Property owners have what is known as a "duty of care" toward people who are invited to visit their property. They are required to take all reasonable measures to protect people's safety. If any hazards are present on the property that could potentially cause injuries, property owners should repair or address these hazards, or they should provide signs or other types of warnings to visitors to ensure that they can avoid being injured. This duty of care applies to private property owners who invite visitors to their home or property, as well as owners of public establishments and commercial tenants who lease property where they operate a business and provide goods and services to customers.

When a person is injured as a visitor to private property or a customer of a public establishment, they may be able to hold the property owner or tenant liable for their injuries. To do so, an injury victim will need to demonstrate that a person or company owned, leased, or occupied the property, that the owner or tenant acted negligently when using or maintaining the property, and that this negligence was a substantial cause of the victim's injuries.

Premises liability cases may involve:

• Slip, trip, and fall injuries - Customers may fall while walking on wet or slippery floors, or they may suffer fall injuries due to tripping hazards such as damaged sidewalks, potholes in parking lots, torn carpets, or missing floor tiles.
• Dog bites - When a dog attacks someone in a public location or on private property where the victim was allowed to enter, the dog's owner may be held liable for their injuries.
• Injuries at stores or restaurants - In addition to fall injuries, customers at businesses may be injured due to negligent security, defective escalators or elevators, falling merchandise, or overcrowding.
