Premises liability covers injuries caused by unsafe conditions on property you don’t own. Examples include wet floors, unstable stairs, broken sidewalks, or poorly lit areas. To qualify, you must show the owner had a duty to keep the area safe, breached that duty, and that the injury followed from the breach.
The owner, landlord, property manager, or tenant may be liable for injuries caused by unsafe conditions. In multi-tenant properties, multiple parties may share responsibility depending on who controlled and maintained the hazard.
In California, the statute of limitations for many personal injury claims is two years, but there are exceptions. It’s important to consult early to preserve your rights.
