Premises Liability
Premises liability refers to theresponsibilities of landowners to ensure that their properties are free of hazardous conditions. All landowners must maintain their property and remove any hazardous conditions, as hazardous conditions can lead to the injury of a third party. Any landowner who does not keep his/her property free of hazards may be liable for any injuries a person sustains while on the landowner’s property.
Premises Liability Law
In the state of Florida, any person who sustains an injury as a result of a hazardous condition on another person’s property may be entitled to monetary compensation from the landowner. The injured person may be allowed to recover damages for his/her medical expenses, lost wages, lost income earning potential, lost quality of life, and pain and suffering.
Before a person can legitimately file a premises liability lawsuit, he/she must be able to prove several factors:
- the landowner was aware of the hazard condition
- the injury occurred because the landowner did not remove the hazardous condition
- the injury occurred because the landowner did not warn the person the hazardous condition existed
- the injury occurred as a result of the landowner’s negligence
If you were injured as a result of landowner negligence, you should speak with a skilled personal injury lawyer to determine if you can recover damages for your injury. A personal injury attorney can review your case and provide you with quality legal resources and representation.
