Premises and Property Liability

Establishing liability in Pennsylvania

Accidents that are caused by defective or dangerous property inside or outside a building are called premises liability accidents.  These accidents can take place at commercial buildings, at private residences, or on public property including parks, streets, or public transportation. 

When you have been hurt because of the negligence or recklessness of a property owner, you may get compensation for your injuries from them.  In order to collect on an injury claim in Pennsylvania, you must prove that the property owner or other responsible party failed to exercise reasonable care to prevent the injury by showing that certain conditions apply:

• A duty was owed to you by the person who owns or manages the property
• The responsible individual or business failed to carry out the duty they owed you
• You were injured
• Your injury was caused by their failure

I have helped numerous clients with serious personal injuries to establish these conditions and win significant awards of damages based on premises liability.  Contact me for a free consultation on the particulars of your case.
