San Fernando Valley Premises Liability Lawyer
Accidents and Injuries on Another Person's Property
At the Law Offices of Gerald L. Marcus, we represent clients in San Fernando Valley for premises liability claims. A premise liability claim can be filed when a person is injured on someone else's property because the owner was in some way negligent. Property involved in premises liability actions can include both residential and commercial property. Property owners have a legal responsibility to provide a safe environment for guests and customers who set foot on their property, and when an owner's negligence causes someone's injuries, they can be held liable for damages.
Many times slip & fall accidents are involved in premises liability claims, but these are not the only situations that may warrant this type of legal action in San Fernando Valley. Individuals can get injured on the property of others when the following conditions are present:
- Wet or slippery floors
- Obstructed walkways
- Uneven or cracked sidewalks or walkways
- Broken handrails in bathrooms, showers, and stairways
- Exposed holes or ditches on property grounds or floor
- Poorly lit areas
- Falling objects
- Lack of warning signs (pools, hot tubs, saunas, etc.)
