Generally speaking, the owner of a building or land is responsible for ensuring that people entitled to be on the premises can move about safely, that dangerous conditions are marked and protected, and that adequate warnings about unavoidable hazards are given to those who need them. The particular nature of a given landowner's responsibility can vary a great deal from case to case, depending on several factors: the ability of the owner to anticipate and protect against risks, the age or vulnerability of the people using the facility, whether the public is invited to visit for the owner's profit, and the nature of the risks actually presented.

He can advise you about your right to damages in such premises liability situations as the following:

  • Slip-and-fall injuries on sidewalks, in commercial or industrial buildings, or in residential buildings
