ORANGE COUNTY PREMISES LIABILITY LAWYER

Premises liability law covers cases in which people are injured on someone else’s property in California. Whether you were injured on public or private property or commercial or residential property, you may be entitled to financial compensation for your injury and related costs. Property owners and managers have legal obligations to maintain safe premises for patrons, tenants, and other visitors. Even if you were injured at a friend’s, relative’s, or neighbor’s home, you should consult with an experienced orange county premises liability lawyer about your legal options.

What is premises liability?

Imagine you visit a grocery store and slip on a slippery floor that was recently waxed. These types of accidents happen every day due to the negligence of property owners who fail to make their premises reasonably safe for visitors. Owners can be held legally responsible for serious injuries that occur on their property, particularly when the injury is caused by a dangerous property condition. This area of law is called premises liability.

According to CACI No. 1001. Basic Duty of Care, a person who owns/leases/occupies/controls property is negligent if he or she fails to use reasonable care to keep the property in a reasonably safe condition. A person who owns/leases/occupies/controls property must use reasonable care to discover any unsafe conditions and to repair, replace or give adequate warning of anything that could be reasonably expected to harm others.

Determining duty of care in your cases.

In bringing a premises liability claim, our experienced orange county premises liability lawyer first seeks to establish a duty of care on the part of the property owner. Without this duty, the defense may effectively argue that the owner had no responsibility to the injured party. A relevant duty of care largely depends on the reason why the injured party was on the owner’s property. Under California state law, there are three types of property visitors:

  • Trespassers are individuals who enter a property without the permission of the owner. Property owners have no duty of care to trespassers they do not know are located on their property.
  • Invitees are individuals invited onto the property for a reason that is financially beneficial to the owner, such as customers to a store. These property owners have a reasonable duty to warn invitees of potential dangers and keep them reasonably safe from risky conditions.
  • Licensees are invited onto the property by the owner for non-financial reasons. For example, social visitors to a person’s home are considered licensees. Owners have a duty to fix dangerous conditions or at least warn licensees of their presence.

Examples of premises liability accidents

The following are just a few of the many examples of premises liability accidents that could occur. Each of these cases is complicated, but our Orange County premises liability lawyer has more than 15 years of experience helping clients recover the compensation they need for medical expenses and other losses associated with the injury.

  • ELEVATOR/ESCALATOR ACCIDENTS
  • CONSTRUCTION SITE ACCIDENTS
  • AMUSEMENT PARK ACCIDENTS

My attorney was Mr. Juan, and he was nothing short of amazing. He called me and kept me in the loop of everything so I would always know what was going on with my case. And for the things I didn’t understand, he made sure she put it into terms where I could. I would definitely recommend them & their services.

I got in a car accident and sustained pretty serious injuries. My family thought it would be wise to get me a lawyer, and I was assigned to Mr. Robert. It was my first experience with this, and they were able to get me a good sum after all my medical bills were paid. So I’m satisfied and would recommend them.

They took care of me and contacted me directly, which is much better than what other lawyers did, and they ensured I was taken care of. I feel like Mr. Robert really fought for me, and he or his paralegal was always available whenever I had questions or whenever I didn't understand something.
