Premises Liability ~ Unsafe Conditions
At the Gober Law Firm, we handle claims arising when someone is injured while visiting business premises. Premises liability cases arise from serious injuries taking place in:
- Residential and commercial buildings
Shopping centers and parking areas
Hotels
Amusement parks
Airports
Healthcare facilities
Nightclubs and bars
Universities and public schools
Truck stops
The basic rule of law is that the owner or operator of a building, parking area, or business has a duty to keep their premises in reasonably safe condition, and to warn visitors of any dangerous conditions that the owner knew about or should have known about.
Inadequate Security
We have handled cases on behalf of victims of serious crimes due to breaches in security in public buildings, truck stops and hotels and parking facilities. In security-related premises liability cases, we investigate existing standards, crime statistics, event history, community standards, and specific risk considerations to determine whether an injury was foreseeable and preventable.
Slip & Falls
In addition to inadequate security matters, we also handle “slip and fall” and “trip and fall” accidents created by dangers such as inadequate lighting, structural defects, and failure to keep a walking space safe from slippery substances when the hazard is foreseeable and part of the method of operation, as in auto body shops.
If you or a loved one has been injured because of dangerous conditions on business premises, you may have the right to make a claim for damages. Contact Us for Personal Injury legal representation at (615) 297-8300 or toll free (800) 634-6237. There is no charge for the initial consultation.
STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS: Remember, the Tennessee Statute of Limitations for personal injury is one year from the date of the event causing the injury. If you do not file a lawsuit by that date your claim may be forever barred.
