Premises liability cases involve injuries caused by unsafe or defective conditions on someone else’s property. This can include slip and fall accidents, inadequate maintenance, poor security, or hazards caused by negligence.
If you suffered an injury due to such circumstances, consulting with an attorney can help determine the viability of a claim and the appropriate next steps.
To prove negligence, you must show that the property owner owed you a duty of care, breached that duty by failing to address hazards, and that this breach directly caused your injury.
Gathering evidence such as photos, witness statements, and documentation of the injury is crucial for supporting your claim.
Missouri follows a comparative fault rule, which means you can pursue a claim even if you share some responsibility for the accident. However, your compensation may be reduced proportionally.
An attorney can help assess your case and advise on the likely impact of shared fault in your specific situation.
Compensation can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages related to your injury caused by the premises defect.
Each case is unique, so speaking with a legal professional can help you understand what to expect based on your circumstances.
Missouri law generally requires premises liability claims to be filed within five years from the date of the injury. This timeframe is known as the statute of limitations.
Timely action is important, so consulting an attorney as soon as possible can ensure your rights are protected.
Many premises liability claims are resolved through negotiation or settlement without going to court. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, litigation may be necessary.
