Premises liability covers injuries caused by unsafe conditions on someone else’s property. A duty of care exists to maintain safe premises, and compensation may include medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Your case timelines depend on the facts and negotiations.
In California, the statute of limitations for personal injury is generally two years from the injury date. Some cases have shorter or longer deadlines, so consult us for specifics.
Compensation may include medical expenses, wage loss, rehabilitation costs, and non-economic damages for pain and suffering. A claim may also cover future care costs.
While not required, a lawyer can help preserve evidence, handle insurance negotiations, and pursue a fair settlement or trial.
Fault is determined by evidence of what happened and who was responsible for the dangerous condition. We evaluate facts, collect statements, and consult experts if needed.
Many clients qualify for a contingency fee arrangement, meaning you pay nothing unless we win your case.
Most cases settle before trial, but we prepare to go to trial if a fair settlement isn’t reached.
Bring photos or videos, police or incident reports, medical records, and a list of witnesses or contacts.
Case duration varies, but many premises liability matters resolve in months to a few years depending on complexity and court schedules.
To reduce risk, promptly report hazards, document conditions, and seek prompt medical care after an injury.
