- Premises Liability
Though we may take care to practice safety in various aspects of our lives, accidents can still occur at any given time. Through a combination of careless or reckless acts, negligence, faulty products, and more, an accident can cause injury to any of the parties involved, and the severity can range significantly from minor bruises to even death. While the law may be written with some protections in mind, how exactly does this apply to different situations such as suffering an injury on another person or party’s property? In today’s blog, your Dallas, TX catastrophic injury attorneys provide a little insight into premises liability, what the law says, and what to expect from filing your claim.
What Is Premises Liability?
suffering an injury as a result of someone else’s negligence or carelessness may be considered grounds for a personal injury claim. If a judge finds that an individual or party is held liable for the injuries another person incurred, then having an experienced personal injury attorney on your side is essential for obtaining every bit of compensation you are owed. More specifically, if a person is injured on another person or company’s property due to negligence, carelessness, or improper upkeep of safety, you may be entitled to compensation under premises liability.
With every injury comes common concerns as well as its own unique set of considerations. For instance, medical bills and missing work can add financial stress and anxiety to the injured person’s situation. Moreover, facing the effects of a catastrophic injury can also mean that independent living or complete recovery are not probabilities. If you experienced an injury of this degree on another person or company’s property, reach out to our team to learn more about your options.
Visitors and Liability
As with other areas of the law, premises liability matters take a look at various elements and definitions to determine fault or responsibility. For instance, Texas liability depends on the accident victim’s status as a visitor. If the victim was determined to be an invitee or licensee, his or her protections will vary from a victim determined to be a trespasser. Because the law is complex and largely requires in-field expertise to navigate, we highly recommend seeking advice from an experienced firm to learn about your options.
Discuss Damages With Your Attorney
Damages are considered to be a sum of money awarded in compensation for a loss or an injury. Though these might include costs incurred from medical bills, they may also include financial compensation to overcome your emotional suffering. There are different types of damages, and not all are applicable in every situation. To learn more about the different types and what they mean with respect to the facts surrounding your case, give us a call.
