Premises Liability
Property owners are responsible for maintaining their premises and keeping them safe. When injuries occur due to their negligence, we pursue them and seek maximum restitution for our clients from all parties at fault.
Premises Liability Claims
Premises liability covers any injury caused by unsafe conditions on someone else’s property whether you were a customer, guest, tenant, or invitee. Common claims include slip-and-fall accidents, trip hazards, inadequate security, falling merchandise, unsafe stairways, poor lighting, swimming pool incidents, dog bites, electrical hazards, and exposure to dangerous substances.
To recover compensation, the injured party generally must show that the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard and failed to remedy it. That’s where evidence matters such as surveillance video, maintenance records, employee reports, prior complaints, and witness statements.
Liability, Compensation & Your Right to Recover
The value of a premises liability case depends on the severity of your injuries, your medical and rehabilitation costs, lost income, future care needs, pain and suffering, and the impact on your life. Even if a property owner or insurer tries to blame you as the cause, a tactic they use too often, you may still recover damages under Texas law as long as you are not more than 50 percent responsible. We know what to look for, how to preserve it, and how to present it to win.
