Premises liability involves the property owner's responsibility when a person is injured on premises including stores, restaurants, homes and public sidewalks. Property owners may be liable when their actions or neglect result in injury, wrongful death or damage to another's property. Injuries range from a fall after tripping on a defective sidewalk to attack by domestic animals. Property damage could be caused by construction. At issue is whether the property owner exercised "reasonable care" to maintain safe premises. Property owners failing to do so are "at-fault" and could be ordered by the court to pay the injured person’s medical costs and other expenses. Property owners' responsibility for safe premises varies by state. So does the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury lawsuit.

Security a Factor in Premises Liability Cases

Business owners enter into a risky contract whenever an invitee (patron) enters their premises. They are required to provide adequate security measures for their invitees, including but not limited to safety measures should a violent crime transpire on the premises. Crime foreseeability is an important concept in premises liability litigation and involves a business owners' standard of care in providing an adequate standard of care in case of violent crime on the premises. read more
