What is a Premises Liability Case?
Premises liability claims falls under the general personal injury practice area.
Below are some of the most common types of premises liability cases:
- Slip and fall accidents
- Water leaks and floods
- Defective conditions
- Dog bite injuries
- Fires
- Inadequate maintenance
- Escalator or elevator accidents
- Toxic fumes and chemicals
- Amusement park accidents
- Insufficient building security
- Swimming pool accidents
Although this list is not exhaustive, it demonstrates just how varied premises liability cases are.
Proving Duty of Care
In a successful premises liability case, one must show that the property owner or manager knew or should have known of the existence of an unreasonably defective condition of the property.
Below are the three different categories visitors are typically divided into:
- Invitee: Someone whom the landowner gave express or implied permission to enter the property. Invitees are usually relatives, friends, or neighbors.
- Licensee: Someone whom the landowner gave express or implied permission to enter the property for his or her own purposes.
- Trespasser: Landowners do not owe a duty of care to trespassers since they are not authorized to visit the property. However, if the trespasser was a child, it is possible the landowner might owe a duty of care. For example, a swimming pool is considered an attractive nuisance and landowners must take certain safety measures to prevent dangerous accidents from occurring.
Ultimately, if the property owner knew or should have reasonably aware of certain unsafe or dangerous conditions, which ultimately results in injuries, you might have a viable premises liability case.

Ted McNabola is an amazing attorney! He handled my mom’s case after she was hit by a car as a pedestrian. The difference between Ted and other attorneys is that he never gave up! It was a long process of 3 years but when other attorney’s would have given up just to make some money on the case, Ted refused to do so!! In the end he got my mother EVERYTHING she was asking for! Thank you Ted for never giving up!!!!- Kat J.
