If the safety of that property is not maintained and injury or death results from that neglectful circumstance, then the owner or party responsible for the property can be held accountable.
In California, the incident must include three factors to qualify for a premise liability claim:
- Existence of a duty on the part of the defendant to use due care
- A breach of this legal duty
- The breach as a cause of the resulting injury
This means the possessor of the land must have been able to predict the possible harm to the victim and must have neglected to take action to protect possible victims from that harm. Finally, the inaction on the behalf of the property possessor must have resulted in actual harm to someone.
Often premise liability claims are filed for “slip and fall” incidents. Other claims include dog bites, construction accidents and injury/death caused by the negligent or intentionally dangerous behavior of a third party on the premises.
Premises liability claims are difficult cases to win. They require a strong amount of proof of the defendant’s ability to prevent the accident and subsequent inaction. Victims need an experienced lawyer with the resources to pursue an in-depth investigation and the skill to take the case to trial, if necessary.[/vc_column_text][us_separator type=”invisible” icon=”fa-star”][vc_column_text css_animation=”bottom-to-top”]If you or a loved one are the victim of an injury suffered on the premises of another property owner, please contact our office and speak with a member of the firm.
