California Premises Liability Lawyers<\/h2>

Property owners and businesses have a duty to keep their property reasonably safe for visitors. When they fail to fix a dangerous condition or warn people about it, someone can be seriously hurt. If you were injured on someone else’s property, Yerushalmi Law Firm can investigate what happened and fight for the compensation you deserve.<\/p>

Common Premises Hazards<\/h2>
  • Wet or slippery floors without warning signs<\/li>
  • Broken stairs, loose handrails and uneven walkways<\/li>
  • Poor lighting in stairwells, hallways and parking areas<\/li>
  • Elevator and escalator malfunctions<\/li>
  • Inadequate security that allows an attack on the property<\/li>
  • Falling merchandise or objects<\/li>
  • Unsafe construction areas and unmaintained property<\/li><\/ul>

    Injuries We See<\/h2>

    Premises accidents can cause broken bones, head and brain injuries, spinal injuries, torn ligaments, cuts and burns and, in the worst cases, wrongful death. These injuries can mean medical bills, missed work and long recoveries.<\/p>

    Who May Be Responsible<\/h2>

    Depending on the facts, a claim may be brought against the person or company that owns, leases, occupies, manages or controls the property. A property owner often cannot avoid responsibility by handing off maintenance to someone else, so we look at every party who may share responsibility.<\/p>

    What We Need To Show<\/h2>

    To hold a property owner responsible, we generally need to show that the owner knew, or reasonably should have known, about the dangerous condition and did not fix it or warn visitors in time. Prior complaints, maintenance records and surveillance video can be important evidence, and they can disappear quickly, so acting fast matters.<\/p>

    What To Do After a Premises Accident<\/h2>
    • Get medical attention right away.<\/li>
    • Report the accident to the property owner or manager and ask for an incident report.<\/li>
    • Take photos of the hazard, the surrounding area and your injuries.<\/li>
    • Get contact information from any witnesses.<\/li>
    • Do not give a recorded statement to an insurance company before speaking with a lawyer.<\/li>
    • Contact an attorney as soon as possible, because deadlines for filing a claim apply.<\/li><\/ul>
