Fort Pierce, FL Premises Liability Lawyer

Premises liability refers to a property owner’s responsibility to maintain safe conditions for guests, tenants, customers, and visitors. Hazards can take on many forms, and while people usually think of wet or slippery floors, several other examples exist. Some examples include broken handrails, uneven pavement, poor lighting, unsafe stairways, falling objects, and a lack of security. While accidents can seem sudden, often they are the result of issues like neglected routine maintenance or ignoring a dangerous condition.

Proving a premises liability case requires showing that the property owner either knew about the hazard or should have known about the hazard and failed to address it. Proving this isn’t always straightforward, and insurance adjusters often try to shift blame or deny that the property owner knew about the hazard. Especially if the accident happened at a place of business, there’s a strong possibility that the insurance company may have a strong legal defense team.

Premises liability injuries can range in scope and severity. People can suffer from injuries like broken bones or fractures, sprains, spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, and more. Besides compensation for medical bills, you can pursue compensation for many other areas. We’ll fight to maximize compensation for factors like lost wages, emotional distress, pain and suffering, and more. We’ll handle the negotiations so you can focus on recovery.
