Beaumont Premises Liability Attorney

Hazardous conditions like faulty wiring, improperly stacked merchandise and loose carpeting cause accidents leading to serious injury. Businesses and property owners have a vital responsibility to create safe environments for their customers and visitors. This also includes walkways and parking lots, in addition to the people they employ. Workers are there to serve and sometimes, even protect individuals who go to their places of business. The lawyers at Dunk Law Firm, are experienced in the legal responsibilities and liabilities of businesses or organizations that fail to provide these safe environments.

You can readily suffer injury through no fault of your own when you visit property such as a store, office building, motel or apartment complex. If the owner or occupant of the property knew of a hazardous condition or activity that led to your injury and failed to take timely, practical actions to protect you from it, you might be qualified to recover full compensation for all harm you have suffered. You should immediately get help from an experienced Beaumont premises liability attorney.

Premises Liability Claims in Texas

When you consult with Dunk Law Firm, we will carefully review the facts of your claim. We will identify and pursue all of your legal options against the owner or occupant of the property where your injury occurred. Generally, the matters that we will focus on include:

  • Duty-- Did you legally visit the property? For instance, were you a customer at a store, a guest at a hotel or a social guest at someone's residence? If so, the property owner or occupier owed a duty to exercise ordinary care to make sure that the property was safe for you. In other words, the owner or occupant needed to take practical steps to protect you from any hazardous condition on the property that the owner or occupant knew or reasonably should have known about and which you would not have been expected to discover on your own.
  • Breach-- Did the owner or occupant neglect to fix the dangerous condition in a reasonable, timely way or, at the very least, to warn you about it? If so, the owner failed to fulfill the duty owed to you and could be held legally responsible for your injuries.
  • Causation-- Did the negligence of the owner or occupant contribute to the injuries that you sustained, or did something else-- perhaps your own actions-- cause the injuries?
  • Damages-- Did you suffer actual harm as a result of the failure of the property owner or occupant to fulfill the duty owed to you? This means that you must prove that you suffered real physical, emotional and/or financial harm.

It is always important to look at the ways a property owner or occupier will try to avoid liability. For example, the owner or occupant may claim that you were a trespasser or claim that you sustained injuries because you walked into an "open and obvious" hazard. The lawyers at Dunk Law Firm, will be prepared to address those issues and protect your right to full and fair compensation.

Types of Premises Liability Claims in Texas

A premises liability claim can emerge in various circumstances. Some of the most common premises liability claims that our law firm handles include:

  • Slip and falls-- These accidents often happen because of wet and slippery floors, poor lighting, broken and uneven sidewalks, torn or frayed carpeting and icy or snowy walkways and parking lots. Additionally, a lot of falls occur because of defects such as damaged stairs or handrails.
  • Falling objects-- Many people suffer injuries when improperly stacked merchandise falls from store shelves or when workers drop tools, equipment and materials at construction sites.
  • Contamination-- Landlords, particularly, subject occupants and their visitors to harm when they fail to conduct routine inspections and remedy concerns such as mold buildup, lead paint, carbon monoxide or gas leaks. Usually, their negligence violates local building codes.
  • Escalator and elevator accidents-- These incidents usually occur when building owners or tenants neglect to routinely inspect and maintain elevators and escalators in stores, shopping centers and office complexes.
  • Negligent security-- Many assaults take place in shopping centers, office buildings, apartments, hotels and motels because property owners and managers fail to protect visitors from known security risks, or they hire employees without an adequate criminal background check.
  • Swimming pool accidents-- Drownings and near-drownings might occur if a property owner or occupant neglects to properly maintain a pool and features such as slides and diving boards. Pool owners should also use a fence or locked gate to keep out children and prevent the foreseeable risk of an accident.
