Premises Liability

When Injuries Result from Defective or Dangerous Products

Phoenix, Arizona Product Liability Attorneys

Premises liability law allows people who have been hurt because of a property owner's negligence to seek financial recovery.

In order for you to sue for damages, the property owner must have known or been expected to know of the hazardous conditions on their property. You must have used a reasonable degree of care on the premises (if you fell while skateboarding off a handrail, for example, you may have a hard time getting compensated). If you were illegally trespassing on private property, you may not have a case.

Also, if you were hurt on government property (for example, if you had a slip and fall accident in a post office or government building), you have a limited amount of time to bring a claim. It is important to contact a personal injury lawyer soon after an accident on government property or with a government vehicle so you don't miss the statute of limitations.
