Were You Injured on Someone Else’s Property?
If so, you may be eligible for compensation under premises liability law. This area of the law allows individuals to receive compensation if they were injured on someone else’s property because the owner or operator created or failed to correct an unsafe condition. This law requires premises owners to protect those who lawfully enter their land or property; they can be held liable if they fail to do so.
Landowners can be liable when their negligence results in the following:
- Slip, trip & fall accidents
- Accidents on playground equipment
- Violent crimes caused by insufficient security
Elements of a Premises Liability Claim
To prove a premises liability claim, the following elements need to be established:
- The defendant owned, leased, occupied, or controlled the property.
- The defendant was negligent in the use of or maintenance of the property.
- The plaintiff suffered harm.
- The defendant’s negligence caused or contributed to the harm.
Unfortunately, proving those elements is not always straightforward. That is why you must hire an experienced St. Louis premises liability attorney who can look into the specifics of your case.
