Premises Liability Accidents
Accidents and injuries that happen as the result of unsafe conditions on property, like a home or a business, are called premises liability accidents. Premises liability lawsuits are a cornerstone area of the personal injury practice, as they can bring justice for injured individuals, settlements and verdicts can pay for medical treatment as a result of the accident, and alert the public to negligent property owners. If yourself or a loved one have been injured on a property due to the owner’s negligence, contact Locke Henry Law today.

If you were injured or caused an accident because you were not following posted rules, behaving recklessly, or engaging in other negligent behaviors while on someone else’s property, you would likely be found at fault. However, if you are following rules and using the space as intended and are injured due to property negligence, the owner’s of the property you were visiting could be at fault.
