What is premises liability?

Premises liability is a legal doctrine that holds property owners responsible for their guests’ safety. If a property owner fails to ensure a reasonably safe environment for business or personal guests, he or she may be held liable for any injuries that result. As a general rule, business owners are held to a higher standard than social hosts, so most premises liability claims are filed against businesses.

If you have been hurt while visiting poorly maintained grounds, you could be able to win compensation for your related losses. For more information, contact the Phoenix premises liability attorneys of Haralson, Miller, Pitt, Feldman & McAnally, P.L.C. at 800-763-0964.
