Permises Liability FAQs
When a property owner fails to fix a dangerous situation or provide adequate warning of the property’s condition and someone is injured on that property, the injury victim may be able to pursue a premises liability claim. Unfortunately, many people, including some attorneys, regard these as straightforward, run-of-the-mill, simple cases.
