Premises Liability

Do you or a loved one have a potential Premises Liability or Slip and Fall claim in Pennsylvania?

A legal term, Premises Liability is an area of personal injury law that makes the individual or company in possession of the land responsible for certain injuries that are suffered by certain categories of people who are on the premises.  In Pennsylvania, owners of commercial and private property have a legal duty to maintain safe premises for people entering the property or working on it.  Part of that duty is the obligation to recognize reasonable hazards, and to prevent or eliminate such hazardous conditions.  Examples of hazardous conditions are poorly maintained walkways, substances left on the floor, or other obstacles and conditions that reflect a failure to properly maintain the premises and its walkways.
