Central Florida Premises
Liability Attorneys

Business owners and others who manage property patronized by the public have certain responsibilities. Basic safety standards must be met so that a customer or visitor doesn't suffer injuries that could have been prevented. When a grocery store fails to clean up a spill, or a shopping mall does not properly light its loading zone – and an elderly patron slips and falls – the store management may have failed in their legal obligation to maintain a safe environment.

If you have been injured you do have legal rights!

Victims of serious injury caused by an instance of premises liability may not always realize they have legal rights. Certainly, some accidents cannot be prevented, but the law requires that a property owner or manager exercise reasonable care to ensure the safety of others. The owner of an apartment building may not know that a burglar is going to break into one of the residents' cars, but he or she must make some assumptions about potential security risks -- and take appropriate steps to guard against foreseeable criminal activity. As a result, many residential property owners are required to provide lighting or cameras in key areas such as parking lots to deter crime.

Not every accident or injury that takes place on someone else's property constitutes a legitimate premises liability claim, but several questions help determine whether the incident merits legal action:

• Did the injury result from a natural or artificial condition of the property?
• Was the property adequately maintained?
• What was the status of the injured person on the property –a customer, an invited guest, a trespasser or solicitor?
• If the injury resulted from a known danger, did the property owner provide sufficient warnings in visible locations?

It Is a Business Owners Responsibility to Take All Steps to Keep You Safe

The relationship of the victim to the responsible party is often important; whether you were a customer or guest may impact the level of responsibility the premises owner bears for your injuries. However, it's important to note that in some cases, even if you were not invited onto the property, you may have a right to seek compensation. This is particularly true of situations in which the premises owner was aware of a potentially hazardous condition and failed to post any signs warning of the danger.

If you have been hurt in an accident involving premises liability, the amount of compensation you are eligible to receive will depend upon the severity of your injury and its impact on your long-term health. Successful premises liability claims must clearly establish how and why the injury occurred and provide medically supported statements regarding the injury.
