Premises liability is a type of legal responsibility that is assigned to a property owner or occupier for any injuries or damages that occur due to the condition of the premises. Premises liability law is an area of tort law that holds a property owner or occupier accountable for any injuries or damages that occur on their property due to the condition of the property. This type of law is designed to protect visitors and invitees of a property from harm.
GALLIAN FIRM HAS THE EXPERIENCE AND TENACITY TO Protect and Defend Property Owners Against All Claims
Although this type of law is designed to protect visitors and invitees of a property from harm, a premises liability case can be brought against a property owner or occupier for any reason. The plaintiff or victim simply may falsely claim, as an example, that the property owner or occupier was negligent in maintaining the premises or failed to warn of any known dangers.
EXAMPLES OF Premises Liability
Examples of premises liability include:
•
Negligent Security: Negligent security occurs when a property owner or occupier fails to provide adequate security measures to protect visitors and invitees from harm.
•
Slip and Fall Accidents: Slip and fall accidents occur when a visitor or invitee slips, trips, or falls due to a dangerous or hazardous condition on the property.
•
Inadequate Maintenance: Inadequate maintenance may occur when a property owner or occupier fails to maintain the property in a safe and secure manner.
•
Dangerous or Defective Conditions: Dangerous or defective conditions may occur when a property owner or occupier fails to properly maintain the property or warn of any known hazards.
GALLIAN FIRM IS EXPERIENCED WITH Texas Premise Liability Laws
In the state of Texas, premises liability law is governed by the Texas Premises Liability Act. This act states that a property owner or occupier must maintain the premises in a reasonably safe condition and must warn of any known or reasonably foreseeable dangers on the property. The Act also states that a property owner or occupier must use ordinary care to keep the premises reasonably safe, and must use reasonable care to warn of any known or reasonably foreseeable dangers.
If convicted of charges in a premises liability case, a property owner or occupier may face a number of penalties. These penalties may include paying for the victim’s medical expenses, paying for property damage, and paying for any lost wages due to the injury. In addition, a property owner or occupier may be liable for punitive damages, which are designed to punish the offender and deter similar conduct in the future. The State of Texas premises liability law is extremely complex, and it requires an aggressive, experienced law firm to keep an owner or occupier’s rights protected against claims of negligence or harm.
POSSIBLE DEFENSES TO A Premises Liabilty Claim
There are a number of possible defenses that may be used to defend against a premises liability claim. These defenses include:
- Contributory Negligence: Contributory negligence occurs when the plaintiff or victim is partially at fault for the injury or damage.
- Assumption of Risk: Assumption of risk occurs when the plaintiff or victim voluntarily assumes the risk of the injury or damage.
- Statute of Limitations: The statute of limitations is a legal time limit for filing a lawsuit. If a lawsuit is not filed within the statute of limitations, the plaintiff or victim may be unable to pursue a claim.
