What a Premises Liability Lawyer Covers

Premises liability is a distinct area of personal injury law that makes landowners liable when their negligence causes someone to get hurt. A premises liability lawyer takes on matters involving commercial spaces and residences alike. The legal theories involved vary depending on the situation, which is why working with an attorney matters so much.

This area of law require proving a few critical legal points: that the defendant owned or controlled the property, that a hazardous condition existed, that the owner was aware or reasonably should have been aware about it, and that the hazard directly caused your damages. Our attorneys evaluate every element to assess the strength of your claim.

This practice area applies to people who suffered injuries while on someone else's property — guests, passersby, and sometimes even trespassers under particular conditions. Figuring out what legal standard governs your claim directly influences the strength of your case. Our premises liability lawyers clarify the full scope of your claim.

Premises Liability Lawyer Common Questions Answered

Below are responses to the most common questions about working with a premises liability lawyer:

With H&P Accident & Injury Lawyers, we represent premises liability clients on a contingency fee basis. Simply put, you owe us nothing at the start until you actually receive compensation. We collect a portion of your settlement or verdict, so you can move forward without worrying about money to pursue your claim.

The timeline for resolution varies based on a number of variables, including how complex the liability question is. Cases with clear liability may conclude within six months, while claims that require litigation can take one to three years or longer. Our attorneys offer you a candid assessment of expected duration during your consultation.

Nevada follows a modified comparative fault rule. Simply stated, you can bring a claim as long as the other party bears at least as much responsibility as you. The amount you recover is lowered by your percentage of fault. A premises liability lawyer fights to reduce any fault attributed to you during the legal process.

Under Nevada law, most premises liability claims must be brought to court no later than two years from the date of the accident. Missing this deadline can permanently destroy your claim. That is why contacting a premises liability lawyer without delay after the incident is absolutely essential.

Injured property visitors may be eligible for a variety of forms of compensation. This generally covers your complete healthcare costs, income you have already lost and income you may lose going forward, the non-economic harm you have endured, and any personal property lost or damaged in the incident. In instances of willful or wanton negligence, punitive damages may also be available.
