Premises Liability Law
In Pennsylvania, persons harmed by an unsafe condition on another’s property may have a case for monetary compensation. Premises liability cases commonly involve slip and fall accidents, where a person slips, trips or falls because of a hazardous condition. Uneven pavement, loose electrical cords, liquids, defective stairs, and loose handrails can all cause a slip and fall accident. Slip and fall accidents can produce serious and extremely painful injuries, such as spinal cord damage, broken bones, dislocated joints, and traumatic brain injuries. These injuries may require you to take time off from work, undergo extensive medical procedures, and pursue lengthy rehabilitation. Some disabilities or injuries may be permanent.
Another common premises liability claim involves inadequate security. If property owners fail to provide the proper security measures on their premises and their negligence allows a third party to rape, rob or assault others, the injured parties may have a premises liability claim. Grounds for a premises liability claim may include failure to install proper lighting, alarms, or security cameras, as well as the failure to supervise and/or train employees and security personnel.
