Accidents can happen anywhere, even on someone else’s property. When injuries occur due to hazardous conditions, the legal concept of premises liability comes into play. At Morefield Speicher Bachman, we’re here to shed light on this topic and guide you through your legal options.

Premises liability makes property owners responsible for accidents on their premises caused by the property owner’s negligence. That can include accidents ranging from slips, trips, or falls to dog bites to inadequate security. - Types of Hazards:
Hazards like wet floors, hard-to-see defects, and poor lighting can lead to accidents in various places. - Proving Negligence:
Successful claims hinge on proving the property owner’s negligence in maintaining safe conditions. - Your Rights and Compensation:
You have the right to seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and more. - After an Injury:
Prioritize safety, seek medical help, document the scene, gather witnesses, and consult an attorney. - Expert Legal Guidance:
Navigating these cases is complex – experienced attorneys are needed to build a strong case. - Timely Action:
Remember, premises liability claims have time limits; contact an attorney promptly to find out if you are within the statute of limitations.
