What is Premises Liability?
Premises liability is when an injury is caused by an unsafe or faulty condition on someone else's property.

Our lawyers represent clients with injuries caused by:
Our experience enables us to act quickly on our clients' behalf when insurance companies and their adjusters seek to limit their recovery. Our Oklahoma premises liability attorneys have taken action on behalf of more than 15,000 clients in our history, recovering upwards of $500 million of our injured clients. We maintain strict confidentiality for our clients. Additionally, we charge no fee for legal service unless we are able to recover compensation for your premises liability injury.
There are four things you must be able to prove in a court of law in order to have a premises liability case:
Essentially, if you and/or your attorney can show that your injury was a direct result of a preventable property hazard (and due to little or no fault of your own) you will have a valid case. We recommend consulting with a local lawyer during a free case evaluation to determine whether you have a case.
Any hazard that causes harm—and that the property owner should have removed for the safety of their visitors—can count as a dangerous condition in a premises liability case. While extreme hazards such as gaping holes in the flooring may come to mind, premises liability claims can also be based on things like poor lighting, inadequate security, and wet floors.
Dangerous property conditions that often lead to lawsuits include:
You may be able to under certain circumstances, yes. In the event that you can connect your injury to a flaw with how the property is managed, you may be able to file a lawsuit. For example, if a lack of security caused someone to break into a building and cause harm, that is grounds for a valid premises liability claim. Negligent security claims are a major facet of premises liability cases, and individuals have also brought successful claims based on things such as robbery and assault.
