Michigan Premises Liability Attorney
Representing Victims of Unsafe, Hazardous, and Dangerous Premises
Premises liability is an area of law which was created to protect individuals from dangerous conditions and hazards while on another's property, whether it is a home, business, or empty land. Property owners have a legal responsibility to ensure that their property is reasonably safe and that it does not contain any unmarked hazardous areas. Property owners, whether commercial or private, may be held liable for injuries if they were negligent in maintaining the safety of their property.
When an injury occurs due to unsafe conditions, assembling evidence of the unsafe condition is crucial. If you have suffered a serious injury due to a slip and fall, trip and fall, negligent or inadequate security, or exposure to hazardous or toxic materials, contact a Michigan personal injury attorney at Sommers Schwartz right away. If it is at all possible, we encourage you to document the hazardous conditions as soon as possible; many property owners attempt to evade responsibility by fixing the issue and denying it ever existed.
Premises Liability Laws in Michigan
Dangerous conditions which contribute to accidents may include: slick surfaces, perilous and faulty construction, lack of security, broken steps, unsecured handrails, and poor visibility. The standard for determining whether a property should be held accountable for damages is whether the property owner knew or should have reasonably known of the unsafe condition, and whether he or she took any steps to warn others of the risk.
