Types of Premises Liability Cases
Our Miami premises liability attorneys handle slip and fall accidents, inadequate security cases, swimming pool accidents, elevator and escalator accidents, fires due to safety violations, toxic exposure, and attacks due to insufficient lighting or security. Each case requires thorough investigation to establish the property owner's liability.
Property Owner Duties and Responsibilities
Property owners must regularly inspect their premises, repair known hazards, warn visitors of dangers that can't be immediately fixed, and provide adequate security in high-crime areas. The level of duty depends on whether you were an invitee, licensee, or trespasser at the time of your injury.
Inadequate Security Claims
Property owners can be liable for crimes that occur on their premises if they failed to provide adequate security. This includes cases involving assault, robbery, or other violent crimes in apartment complexes, parking lots, shopping centers, and hotels where security was inadequate.
Swimming Pool and Water-Related Accidents
In Miami's warm climate, swimming pool accidents are unfortunately common. Property owners must maintain pools safely, provide proper barriers and warnings, and ensure adequate supervision. Pool accidents often result in drowning, near-drowning, or serious diving injuries.
"I was assaulted in a hotel parking lot that had no security cameras or lighting. Eugene Mesin proved the hotel was negligent and got me $315,000 for my injuries and trauma."
— Michael D., Inadequate Security
Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about your legal case.
What is the difference between premises liability and personal injury?
Premises liability is a type of personal injury case that specifically involves injuries that occur on someone else's property due to unsafe conditions or the property owner's negligence.
Do I have a case if I was injured while trespassing?
Generally, property owners owe limited duties to trespassers. However, there are exceptions, particularly for children and in cases involving known trespassers. Our Miami premises liability lawyers can evaluate whether you have a valid claim.
How do I prove the property owner was negligent?
We must show that the property owner knew or should have known about the dangerous condition and failed to fix it or warn visitors. Our Miami personal injury attorneys gather evidence including surveillance footage, maintenance records, and incident reports.
