Sugar Land Premises Liability Lawyer

Premises Liability

The law requires that those responsible for a property maintain safe conditions for those who use it, whether the property is private, public or commercial. This includes indoor and outdoor environments. Injuries which occur due to violations of this law may be the subject of a premises liability claim.

  • Examples of factors which would be considered in a premises liability case include:
  • Slippery surfaces
  • Uneven flooring or unpredictable changes in walking surfaces
  • Gaps or holes in the ground
  • Obstructed passageways or exits
  • Dangerous stairways
  • Unsafe balconies
  • Poor lighting
  • Electrical hazards
  • Unsafe equipment
  • Insufficient or negligent security
  • Lead paint
  • Dangerous chemicals
  • Failure to effectively warn of unsafe conditions

What should I do if I have been injured?

If you have been injured due to such factors, try to obtain photographic evidence of the conditions at play as soon as possible. It can often be the case that the parties responsible for such act quickly to alter the area so as to escape legal consequences. As soon as possible, contact a Sugar Land personal injury lawyer, who can help you determine your best course of action.
