Proving Premises Liability

There is a high standard of proof to protect businesses and property owners from spurious claims. To prevail, we have to show that the owner of the property had notice of a safety hazard or should have been aware of the danger to the public. In building your case, our experienced lawyer may:

• Send investigators to injury site
• Identify and depose witnesses
• Obtain maintenance records or video camera evidence
• Document injuries through photos and medical records
• Look up building codes and past violations
• Research crime levels in the neighborhood
• Consult with engineers and safety experts
