What a Premises Liability Lawyer Addresses

Premises liability is a distinct area of personal injury law that makes landowners liable when their failure to act causes someone to get hurt. A premises liability lawyer works across situations involving public and private properties across the board. The arguments at play vary depending on the situation, which is why professional legal help is so important.

These cases demand that the injured party demonstrate a few critical legal points: that the party in question had control of the property, that a hazardous condition existed, that the owner had notice about it, and that the danger was the direct reason for your damages. We analyze each factor to assess the strength of your claim.

This area of representation is designed for people who suffered injuries while on someone else's property — customers, passersby, and sometimes even trespassers under specific legal circumstances. Figuring out what legal standard governs your claim directly influences the outcome of your claim. Our premises liability lawyers walk you through every step of your legal journey.

Premises Liability Lawyer Frequently Asked Questions

The following are some of the most common questions about working with a premises liability lawyer:

At our firm, we work on a contingency structure. Simply put, you are not charged any fees until you actually receive compensation. We collect a portion of your total compensation, so you can move forward without worrying about money to hold a negligent property owner accountable.

The length of a premises liability case is influenced by a number of variables, including how complex the liability question is. Cases with clear liability may resolve in a few months, while more complex matters can extend over multiple years. We provide you an honest projection during your consultation.

Nevada follows a modified comparative fault rule. Simply stated, you can pursue compensation as long as your share of fault does not exceed 50%. Your compensation will be reduced by whatever proportion of blame is assigned to you. A premises liability lawyer works to limit any blame assigned by the defense during the legal process.

According to state statutes, personal injury lawsuits of this type must be filed within two years from the time of the incident. Missing this deadline can permanently destroy your claim. This is exactly why contacting a premises liability lawyer right away after an injury on someone else's property is absolutely essential.

Successful claimants may be able to recover a range of categories of recovery. These typically include medical expenses — both past and future, lost wages and diminished earning capacity, physical pain and emotional distress, and any personal property lost or damaged in the incident. In situations where the owner acted with extreme recklessness, punitive damages may also be available.
