Premises Liability
Memphis Premises Liability Attorney
When a business owner fails to keep their premises safe and free of dangerous conditions, they may be liable for injuries resulting from their negligence. This is true for all types of public settings including restaurants, office buildings, retail establishments, banks, nightclubs, shopping malls and parking lots. Examples of dangerous conditions may include but are not limited to:
- Poor and inadequate lighting
- Objects falling from high shelves
- Slippery or uneven floors and rugs
- Missing warning signs
- Faulty stairs and railings
Injuries Due to Hazardous Premises Conditions
Just because an accident or injury occurred on store premises doesn’t mean the business is automatically responsible. However, you may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, physical impairment and pain and suffering. The initial claims made against retail establishments may be ignored or outright denied. This frequently happens even if the damages are significant and there is clear liability. Many individuals simply give up without seeking the help of experienced legal counsel. If you’ve been injured on the premises of a business or other individual, our Personal Injury Attorneys will be happy to evaluate your case absolutely free. Generally, injury cases are accepted on a contingency basis, which means you pay nothing unless you actually recover. Our fee is computed before costs or expenses are subtracted from any recovery.
