The Cochran Firm Legal Blog

If you are injured on someone else's property, the owner of the property can be held legally responsible for your injuries. Premises liability injuries can happen by slipping and falling on a broken sidewalk, falling down a poorly lit stairway, being assaulted in a shopping mall parking lot, slipping on a wet floor in a restaurant, or any number of incidents.

Determining who is responsible can depend on whether the owner of the property knew the hazardous or dangerous condition responsible for your injury existed and did nothing to correct it, or should have known the hazardous or dangerous condition responsible for your injury existed and did nothing to correct it.

Premises liability awards may compensate you for medical expenses, loss of income, loss of future potential earning capacity, pain and suffering and in the case of a fatality, the survivors may also be compensated for their losses. An experienced premises liability attorney has the expertise and knowledge to determine who is responsible for your injuries and hold them legally accountable.
