Premises Liability Every Move Matters

Orlando Premises Liability Attorney

What Is Premises Liability?

Property owners, landlords, and businesses are required to maintain safe conditions for guests who visit their property. If you have suffered a personal injury caused by the negligent maintenance of a property, you may be entitled to receive compensation in a premises liability lawsuit.

Severe injury can result when a property owner fails to repair dangerous conditions. When facing financial hardships associated with costly medical bills and lost income, you should consider hiring an experienced premises liability attorney who can make sure your rights are protected.

Can Someone Sue if They Were Injured While Trespassing?

When it comes to injuries that occur while a person is trespassing, there can be serious legal implications. In many cases, the injured party may not have a valid legal claim against the property owner if they were trespassing at the time of injury. However, in some circumstances, such as when a property owner has acted negligently or carelessly in maintaining their premises, the trespasser may have a valid claim for compensation. 

If a trespasser can prove that their injury was caused by negligence or recklessness on the part of another party, then they may be able to recover damages in a lawsuit. It is important for those who have been injured on someone else's property to speak with a knowledgeable attorney to find out if they have viable claims under the law.

How Long Do You Have to File a Premises Liability Claim?

When it comes to figuring out how long you have to file a premises liability claim in Florida, the answer is not so simple. Depending on the circumstances and who is responsible for the accident, you may have up to four years to file your claim. Generally speaking, if the property owner is a private individual rather than a government body, you likely have four years to file your premises liability claim. 

However, if a government body is responsible for the accident, the window of time available may be drastically shorter. It’s important that anyone involved in an accident consult with an experienced attorney so that they are aware of deadlines and their legal rights when filing a premises liability claim.
