Free Case Evaluation

During your free initial consultation, a California premises liability lawyer will assess your case and evaluate any evidence you have gathered to determine if you have grounds for a claim. For your case to be successful, you must be able to prove that the at-fault party owed you a duty of care, breached that duty of care, and the breach of duty caused your injuries.

Parties who control, possess, or own a property in California have a duty to keep their premises in reasonably safe condition. If they fail to fix a dangerous condition or to warn people about it, this may constitute a breach of the duty of care, also called “negligence.”

The following are common examples of negligence in premises liability cases:

• Leaving debris in walkways;
• Not cleaning up a spilled liquid;
• Not fixing holes on the property;
• Not ensuring floor surfaces are dry;
• Failing to abide by building codes;
• Not installing sufficient lighting in stairwells;
• Failing to perform necessary maintenance on the building; and
• Not fixing pulled or torn carpet.
