Premises Liability

St. Louis Premises Liability Lawyer

Premises liability involves the responsibility of property owners and managers to provide reasonably safe premises for visitors. This means that both private and public property owners must maintain awareness of any safety hazards their premises poses to visitors, customers, patrons, clients, or service providers who enter for social or business purposes. These owners and/or managers owe you a duty of care to remedy unsafe, defective, or neglected conditions on their premises promptly or provide warnings to you until or while the condition is being remedied. Property owners who violate this basic safety protocol may be held responsible for accidents that occur on their premises. Premises liability claims can be filed against them to seek damages.

Labovitz Law Firm provides seasoned and dedicated legal representation. Premises liability claims are generally complex matters in which you will have to prove that the hazardous condition that caused your accident directly led to the injuries you sustained. You will likely be fighting against the large resources of a corporate insurance company. Because of this, you will need skilled professional help in making your claim. Attorney Brent Labovitz is backed by more than a decade of experience resolving claims and lawsuits of this type. 

Elements of Premises Liability Claims

Property owners of all kinds can be held accountable in premises liability claims. 

Properties subject to premises liability law can include but are not limited to: 

  • Private residences
  • Apartment complexes
  • Grocery stores
  • Retail stores and shopping malls
  • Schools, colleges, and universities
  • Office buildings
  • Sports arenas
  • Parking lots and parking structures
  • Amusement parks
  • Daycare facilities
  • Doctor offices, clinics, and hospitals
  • Entertainment venues
  • Big box stores

Various conditions can pose hazards to visitors, such as torn carpeting, inadequate lighting in hallways, aisles, stairwells, and more, defective wiring, broken handrails, faulty elevators or escalators, other broken equipment, liquid spills on floors, chemical leaks, rickety stairs, potholes, broken sidewalks, snow and ice, negligent security leading to criminal attacks, and more. Unprovoked dog bites and attacks also fall under premises liability. 

Your injury claim against the negligent property owner/insurer can seek damages similar to other personal injury claims. These damages will depend on the specifics of your case, such as the nature and extent of your injuries and losses. Generally, they include past and future medical expenses, lost income/wages, pain and suffering, and emotional distress. 

As your attorney, Brent will always be accessible to you. He will build your case through intensive investigation and documentation to put you in the strongest position for a fair and just settlement or courtroom trial.
