A person who is injured because of an unsafe condition on someone else’s property may have grounds to bring an unsafe premises claim. Property owners are obligated to either make their property reasonably safe for others or provide a proper warning regarding the dangerous conditions on their property. When a landlord, storeowner, building owner, or business fails to do this and you are injured or your loved one is killed, you are entitled to compensation. Over the years, James W. Dodson, Attorney at Law has represented personal injury clients who have been injured on private and public properties in different cities throughout Florida, including Clearwater, Dunedin, Palm Harbor, St. Petersburg, Largo, Tarpon Springs, Safety Harbor, Seminole, Pinellas Park, and the other cities of Pasco County, Pinellas County, and Manatee County. Mr. Dodson knows how to determine liability in these kinds of cases. He will work with any experts that may be needed to prove your case.

Grounds for Filing a Premises Liability Claim
An injured person can file a premises liability claim for a number of reasons, including slip and fall accidents, falling merchandise, inadequate security, dog bites, animal attacks, and landlord negligence. Someone who slips and injures his or her back because something was left on the floor of a neighborhood store or who trips while going down the steps in a dark hallway where the light bulb was never replaced or who is hospitalized after being injured while using defective equipment may have grounds to file a premises liability claim.

Injuries from Falling Merchandise
We are all aware of the way big retailers and home stores stack merchandise high overhead on shelves and racks. Specific safety standards control the way stores must stack and handle these items. When you have been injured because these safety standards were ignored, you need an experienced falling merchandise attorney to pursue your claim.
