Premises Liability Lawyer

Home / Blog / Premises Liability Lawyer

July 26, 2012 //  by Gregory Fox

In California premises liability law covers injuries that occur on another’s property due to the negligence of the property owner. Understanding premises liability law and how it relates to your case requires the expertise of a premises liability lawyer. Suffering a personal injury as a result of dangerous property can affect your personal and professional life. Fresno personal injury attorney Gregory W. Fox represents those who have been involved in premises liability accidents such as:

  • Swimming pool injuries
  • Trampoline injuries
  • Escalator
  • Elevator
  • Automatic doors
  • Slip and fall
  • Fire
  • Explosion
  • Roof cave-in
  • Broken glass
  • Animal attacks
  • Faulty store displays
  • Inadequate security

These are just a few examples of accidents that can occur due to negligent premises conditions. These conditions can exist in just about every type of building or open space including: homes, apartments, theaters, malls, sport facilities, amusement parks, government buildings, commercial buildings, farms, and open land. The seriousness of these injuries can vary, but as a skilled premises liability lawyer, Mr. Fox can help talk to you about your accident and explain your rights and options.

Fresno Premises Liability Lawyer

You may not be aware of the fact that the owner of a property has a legal obligation to use reasonable care to keep the property safe and prevent dangerous conditions. These dangerous conditions may include:

  • Dog bite as a result of improperly confining the dog
  • Bad lighting
  • Uneven or slippery surfaces
  • Toxic chemicals

These dangerous conditions could lead to serious injury including burns, broken bones, brain and spinal cord injury, and may cause permanent disability or disfigurement. It is important to determine who had the right to control the property at the time of the accident. Control of the property could fall under a tenant, the property manager, or contractors working on the property. The party in control could be liable for injuries which occur as a result of the property being poorly maintained causing dangerous conditions. As a knowledgeable premises liability lawyer, Mr. Fox will work diligently to determine who is responsible for the accident.

Even with that said, just owning or occupying property does not automatically make the owner liable for injuries that occur on the property. There must be actual fault or negligence on behalf of the property owner to keep the property in reasonably safe condition. Only an experienced Fresno premises liability lawyer can help you walk through the details of your case and determine if you are entitled to compensation for your injuries.
