Premises Liability

 Once you legally enter an establishment, the owner of the property instantly becomes responsible for your safety. If you sustained injuries or a loved one died within the premises of the property due to the negligence of the property owner, you are entitled to collect compensation. We, at MiamiFloridaLawyer.org, can offer legal representation for victims of such accidents. Our mission is to seek full and just compensation for the damages caused by the intentional or negligent actions of the property owner or manager.

Commercial properties are not the only establishment covered by the premises liability, private residences, vacant spaces and other areas can be responsible for the safety of the visitors or guests.

Premises liability varies greatly and our Miami lawyers are effective in handling any kind of accidents associated with this type of claim, including:

  • Retail accident wherein customers suffer serious injuries usually from using the shop’s shelves or other equipments therein.
  • Slip and falls involve injuries, pains and damages resulting from wet or uneven surfaces, which threaten the safety of the visitors.
  • Dog bites
  • Rape and assault
  • Accidents associated with swimming pools, water slides, slippery surfaces and others.

There are, however, several conditions that can exempt property owners from injury liabilities. In the instance of dog bite accidents, the owner of the residence cannot be held liable for injuries if a “Bad Dog” sign is notably present or if the dog was provoked.

Victims of premises liability accidents can collect monetary award, which can cover their medical expenses, lost wages and future lost earnings. The damages can also extend emotionally, such as when suffering, pain or loss of enjoyment in life is visible.

Our legal experts at MiamiFloridaLawyer.org are dedicated in helping victims and diligently investigate each case in order to effectively employ the right course of action. If you have questions regarding your case, don’t forget to contact us at MiamiFloridaLawyer.org for a free consultation.
