Birmingham Premises Liability Lawyer

Landowners owe their visitors a duty of care by simply providing a safe environment free of hazards. However, when this does not happen, and injuries are sustained as a result, legal action should be taken. To recover damages for their injuries and injury-related losses, the injured party may file a premises liability injury claim against the landowner.

If your or someone close to you was seriously injured in an accident that occurred on another’s negligently maintained premises, you could be owed substantial monetary damages for your losses. For more information on the claims filing process in premises liability cases, contact a Birmingham premises liability lawyer.

What is a Premises Liability Claim?

In personal injury cases where an individual is injured in an accident that occurs while on the property of another party, the civil action that arises is referred to as a “premises liability” injury claim. Some of the different causes of premises liability claims include, but are not limited to, the following examples:

  • Slip or trip and falls
  • Water leaks or flooding
  • Elevator and escalator accidents
  • Snowy and icy premises
  • Exposure to chemicals or hazardous fumes
  • Inadequate security on the premises
  • Fires

While there is a wide range of injuries that could be sustained in each of the different types of premises liability cases, all have the potential to be life-altering and, in some cases, life-threatening. A sophisticated civil litigation lawyer with premises liability case experience can work with an injured party to determine whether their accidental injuries constitute a viable premises liability claim through which to seek financial compensation.

Common Bodily Injuries Incurred in Premises Liability Cases

The type and severity of the injury the claimant in a premises liability case sustains will vary depending on several factors, including the claimant’s age, the type of accident they sustain their injury in, and the cause of their injury is. While the injuries sustained in premises liability cases will significantly vary on a case-by-case basis, some of the more commonly suffered injuries include the following:

  • Skeletal fractures and sprains
  • Internal injuries (e.g., internal bleeding, organ damage, etc.)
  • Cranial trauma (e.g., traumatic head injuries)
  • Paralysis injuries (e.g., traumatic spinal cord injuries)
  • Severe abrasions and contusions
  • Neck injuries (e.g., whiplash)

In any case, no matter how severe an accidental injury may be, if it occurs while on another’s property due to the property owner’s negligence, the landowner could be held liable for any damages subsequently incurred. A skilled personal injury attorney with experience handling premises liability cases could review the facts of an injured party’s case to determine what an appropriate damages award would be in order to sufficiently compensate the injured party for their injury-related losses.
