Premises Liability

Personal Injury Attorneys helping people in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia to recover Damages for:

Landlords, store owners, and residential or commercial property owners sometimes allow unsafe conditions to exist on their land, or in their buildings, that result in serious injuries to others. Such negligent or reckless behavior is the basis for premises liability lawsuits. Here are a few examples:

• A wet floor in a restaurant in Steubenville, Ohio, causes a patron to slip and fall, resulting in a severe head injury.
• An apartment landlord owner in Weirton, West Virginia, fails to fix a door, allowing an intruder to enter; and a tenant is raped as a result of the faulty security.
• A construction company in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, fails to fence off a worksite, thus permitting a young child to fall into a trench full of water and drown.
• A motel manager in East Liverpool, Ohio, fails to fix a defunct smoke detector in a motel room; as a result a business executive suffers severe smoke inhalation injuries.

Dangerous property conditions--which the owner or property manager could have foreseen causing the accident that occurred-- can create legal liability for property owners or managers. In construction accidents, such as scaffolding falls-- contractors, subcontractors, property owners and/ or other parties may be held liable.
