Injured on Someone Else’s Property? You May Have a Case.
Property owners have a legal duty to keep their premises safe for visitors, tenants, and customers. When they fail to do so, slip and falls, trip hazards, inadequate security, and unsafe conditions can lead to serious injuries. If you were injured due to negligent property maintenance, unsafe walkways, or hazardous conditions, you may be entitled to compensation.
At Mesin & Co., we fight for victims of premises liability accidents and hold negligent property owners accountable.

What is Premises Liability?
Premises liability law holds property owners, landlords, and businesses responsible when hazardous conditions cause injury.
To win a premises liability case, we must prove:
✔ A Dangerous Condition Existed – The property had an unsafe condition that posed a risk.
✔ The Owner Knew or Should Have Known About It – The property owner ignored or failed to fix the hazard.
✔ You Were Injured as a Result – The dangerous condition directly caused your injuries.
Property owners must take reasonable steps to keep their premises safe. If they failed, they may be held liable for your injuries.
Common Types of Premises Liability Cases We Handle
Premises liability cases involve many types of hazards. We represent clients in cases involving:
✔ Slip & Fall Accidents – Wet floors, uneven pavement, and poorly maintained walkways.

Who Can Be Held Liable for a Premises Liability Injury?
