Arizona's premises liability laws are designed to protect individuals injured on someone else's property. These laws hold property owners responsible for maintaining a safe environment. Property owners can be held liable if they fail to address potential hazards that lead to an injury.
Under these laws, the nature of the victim's presence on the property – whether as an invitee, licensee, or trespasser – affects the case. Property owners must show different levels of care to each category of visitors. Invitees, such as customers in a business, are owed the highest level of care. Our lawyers are experts in interpreting and applying these laws to your situation.
Slip and fall accidents are common in premises liability cases. These incidents can happen due to wet floors, uneven surfaces, or poorly maintained areas. The injuries from these falls can range from minor scrapes to more severe conditions like broken bones or brain injuries. It's important to understand that property owners must prevent these accidents by maintaining their premises.
We look at the circumstances leading to the accident in handling slip and fall cases. This includes examining the property conditions and determining whether the owner knew the hazard. Our experienced lawyers work to prove that the property owner's negligence led to your catastrophic injuries.
Trip and fall incidents often happen due to uneven flooring, obstructed walkways, or poor lighting. These incidents can lead to significant injuries, particularly for the elderly or those with existing health issues. Property owners must ensure that walkways are clear and well-lit to prevent such incidents.
We gather evidence, such as photos of the hazard and witness statements, to build a strong case. Proving that the property owner knew or should have known about the hazard is critical to your claim.
Negligent security claims arise when inadequate security measures on a property lead to injury or harm. This can include a need for proper lighting, security personnel, or surveillance cameras. Victims of assault, theft, or other crimes may have a case if it can be shown that better security could have prevented the incident.
In these cases, we must show a link between inadequate security and the harm suffered. Our team is skilled in handling the complexities of negligent security cases.
Defective property conditions, such as broken staircases, malfunctioning elevators, or crumbling structures, can lead to severe accidents. Property owners are responsible for routine maintenance and repair of their premises. Failing to do so can result in liability for any injuries caused by these defects.
Our legal team examines the history of the property's maintenance and any previous complaints or incidents. We use this information to demonstrate the property owner's negligence and build a compelling case for your compensation.
Arizona property owners are legally obligated to ensure their premises are safe for visitors. State laws and regulations govern this responsibility. Owners must regularly inspect their properties and fix any hazards promptly. Or they can be held liable.
Proving liability in a premises liability case in Arizona requires demonstrating that the property owner was negligent. This means showing that the owner knew or should have learned about the hazard and failed to take appropriate action. A successful claim depends on establishing this link between the owner's negligence and the injury suffered.
In Arizona, the concept of comparative fault applies to premises liability cases. If you are partially at fault for your injury, your compensation can be reduced accordingly. For instance, if you are found to be 30% at fault, your compensation will be cut by 30%. It's essential to understand how this law can impact your claim.
Understanding comparative fault is crucial in negotiating a fair settlement. Our attorneys are experienced in handling cases involving comparative fault. We work to minimize your share of fault and maximize your compensation.
A. Medical Expenses
Compensation for medical expenses covers hospital bills, doctor visits, medication costs, and any future medical care related to the injury. This ensures you are not financially burdened by the injury you suffered due to someone else's negligence.
B. Lost Wages
If your injury caused you to miss work, you can claim compensation for lost wages. This includes lost earning capacity if your injury affects your ability to work in the future.
C. Pain and Suffering
Pain and suffering compensation is for the physical and emotional distress caused by your injury. This recognizes the non-economic impact of your injury.
D. Property Damage
If your property was damaged in the accident, you could be compensated for repair or replacement costs. This includes items like clothing, glasses, or electronic devices.
In Arizona, you have a limited time to file a premises liability claim. The statute of limitations is typically two years from the date of the injury. You must submit your claim by this time, or you could lose your right to file.
A. Initial Case Assessment
Our lawyers will review your case, advise you on your legal options, and develop a strategy tailored to your situation.
