What Is Premises Liability?

Property owners in Missouri have the obligation to rectify unsafe circumstances on their premises that could potentially harm their guests and customers. This includes scenarios like a slip due to a slick restaurant floor or an inadequately secured artwork causing injury to a hotel guest. In such cases, it is the duty of the property owners to provide compensation for the damages.

What Kinds of Situations Qualify as Premises Liability?

Any hazard that is not addressed by a property owner in due time could make them accountable for injuries occurring on their premises. Situations like inadequate lighting, obstructed walkways, torn carpets or mats, faulty stairs or handrails, malfunctioning elevators, and uneven stair risers all need to be rectified before inviting guests. Additionally, slippery floors can lead to accidents. However, if the property owner was not aware of the exact cause of the fall, such as a customer breaking a bottle of soda and not informing a worker, they may not be held responsible. That’s why it’s crucial to consult with Paul Katz, a personal injury advocate based in Kansas City, Missouri, as soon as you can following the accident. This will help you understand the options available to you. To find out more about whether your circumstances qualify as premises liability, reach out to Simon and Katz Law Firm today.

What Should I Do If I Have an Accident on Someone Else’s Property?

The crucial first step you should take following an incident is to secure medical assistance, prioritizing your health and well-being above all else. Keeping complete and detailed records regarding your injuries is absolutely vital for any potential claims you may pursue later. If circumstances allow, consider revisiting the location of the incident to capture photographs that clearly document the factors that led to your harm. If you find yourself unable to do this, don't hesitate to enlist the help of a trusted individual who can assist in this important task. Once your injury occurs on a property owned by a business or another organization, it’s essential to take the time to pen down a thorough report of the incident, ensuring that you maintain a copy for your own reference and records.
