Typically, business and property owners are responsible for maintaining safe premises for their employees, visitors, tenants, and other people who can access their areas. However, there are instances in which they fail to uphold this responsibility. As a result, people may suffer injuries, such as bruises and cuts, paralysis, traumatic brain injury, and other similar medical conditions.

Unfortunately, these injuries can result in significant losses, including payment of medical bills, lost wages and ability to work, loss of enjoyment in life, and can be a source of pain and suffering. This is where filing a premise liability lawsuit enters into the picture. It’s a legal action that allows injured victims to sue a property owner for negligence and recover compensation for their losses. But, since premise liability lawsuits can be complicated, you may need to work with professionals like premise liability lawyers to handle the situation for you.

What Are Premise Liability Lawyers?

Premise liability lawyers from Raphaelson & Levine Law Firm and other reliable law firms in your area are legal professionals who specialize in handling premise liability cases. Essentially, premise liability refers to a legal concept wherein the injury is caused by an unsafe condition on someone else’s property. Since it’s a type of personal injury case, having a lawyer proves to be beneficial in this situation. They can do the following:

• Evaluate the facts of your case to provide you with valuable legal advice and explain the legal options available.
• Build your case based on the details you provide and other circumstances present.
• Answer all the questions you have about your case and regularly update you about the progress.
• Represent you in all insurance negotiations to ensure you receive a fair and just settlement offer for your injury.

When Do You Need A Premise Liability Lawyer?

If you’re hurt on someone else’s property, you may be eligible to file a premise liability lawsuit against the at-fault party. However, navigating a lawsuit can be challenging without legal help. Hence, below are instances when you should need a premise liability lawyer for your case:

1. When Collecting Evidence

If you want to win your premise liability lawsuit, you need to submit valuable pieces of evidence to support and strengthen your claim. This is where a lawyer comes into play.

They can assist in obtaining evidence to make sure you get a favorable outcome for your legal action. These pieces of evidence can include medical reports, photos of the accident scene and your injuries, accident report, and other similar documentation.

2. When Proving The Liability Of The Other Party

You can improve your chances of winning your lawsuit if you can establish the responsible party’s liability. In doing so, you need the expertise and skills of a lawyer. They can prove that the property owner of the premises where you got injured was at fault by demonstrating the elements of negligence in your case. These can include:

• Duty of care: The property owner must ensure safe conditions on their property. For example, if you’re going to a mall, the mall owner should ensure that the premises are free from any hazards.
• Breach of that duty: The property owner breached their duty by committing negligent acts. For example, despite repeated reminders, the property owner failed to fix an uneven floor which caused you to slip and experience an accident.
• Injury: The breach of a duty caused you an injury. For example, you were in the parking lot where you tripped and fell due to poor lighting, resulting in a dislocated joint.
• Damages: The injury you sustained resulted in significant losses. For example, depending on your injury, you may have to stop working and, as a result, lose your ability to earn a living.

3. When Knowing Your Case’s Worth

Being injured due to someone else’s negligence is never easy. Depending on the extent of your injury, your losses can be so significant that you should get the right amount of compensation you deserve. This is one instance wherein hiring a lawyer is necessary.

Since they’ve been handling cases similar to yours, they know how to determine the actual value of your claim. They’ll consider the medical costs you incurred, the wages you lost due to work stoppage, and the pain and suffering you experienced because of your injury. They’ll take all your losses into account to ensure you get the right value for your case.

4. When Your Case Goes To Trial

When the negotiations fail with the insurance company, you need a lawyer to bring your lawsuit to the civil court of law. They know how to handle the legal processes involved in premise liability cases, making the whole proceeding much easier for you. They prepare all the legal paperwork for your lawsuit, including the complaint and other supporting documentation. They represent you during the trial and protect your rights and interests by convincing the court that you’re a victim of someone else’s negligence.

Bottom Line

The aftermath of an accident on someone’s property can be devastating. However, if you’re injured, you don’t need to go through this unfortunate time on your own. You can hire legal professionals like premise liability lawyers to support you in obtaining compensation. By keeping the information mentioned above in mind, you’ll also understand how they can improve your case’s odds of success.
