Kansas Premise Liability Attorney Help You To Seek Out Compensation For Damages

Property owners are expected to provide maintenance to their premises and ensure that they’re safe for their guests. For residential properties, an owner must make sure that their home is safe, including their pool, to prevent an injury or accident from happening.

Premises maintenance is something that property owners, residential or commercial, must exercise proactively. If you, or someone you know, are a victim of an injury caused by the negligence of a property owner, our Kansas personal injury attorney at Pyle Law can help you seek out compensation for damages.

What Is Considered A Premises Liability?

If a hazard presents itself, it is the property owner’s responsibility to fix this danger and maintain the level of safety. However, if circumstances prevent them from being accounted for right away, then it is the owner’s responsibility to block off that area with clear safety warnings until the issue can be resolved. Failure to do so could result in someone else’s serious injury and the property owner must be held accountable.

It’s the owner’s responsibility to block off that area.

There are four basic elements to any premises liability claim:

  1. An injury
  2. The injury must have occurred on the property of another
  3. Negligence on behalf of the owner of that property
  4. That negligence must have contributed to the injury

Examples of Premises Liability Cases in Kansas

The 5 most common examples of premises liability cases include:

Amusement Park Injuries

From the rides they house, to the grounds upon which they are built, amusement parks present many dangers to their patrons. Unfortunately, some theme parks that are designed for fun may not always be designed with as much precaution as possible. The result can be hazardous equipment, dangerous pathways, overcrowding, and more. If you were injured at an amusement park, you can hold the park responsible for compensating you for the injuries that you sustained. Our Kansas premises liability lawyer with more than 25 years of experience, Tom Pyle, can help you recover losses incurred by those injuries.

Dog Bites

These types of injuries often happen on private property when a homeowner fails to keep their dog in a safe area and away from people should the dog be known to be dangerous. Even a dog that may seem friendly can have a temper if provoked, and the property owner may be held responsible.

Security Negligence

This type of negligent behavior is characterized by a property owner’s failure to maintain a secure premise. If the property is in a known area of crime, the property owner should take additional measures to ensure the safety of his or her property. If the property owner fails to do so, the customers are at risk for serious personal injury or wrongful death.

Slip & Fall

When a property owner or a person working on a property fails to mark the wet floor with signs, they are allowing their customers to be susceptible to slip and fall accidents. These accidents can also occur due to hazardous materials on the floor or icy sidewalks.

Swimming Pool Accidents

Swimming pools and the areas surrounding them are filled with inherent dangers that have the potential to cause serious injury. If hazards such as unsafe drains, slippery walkways, toxic amounts of chemicals, and unsupervised areas are avoided, accidents can be avoided as well. However, when these conditions are not properly cared for, accidents, injuries, and deaths can most often occur.

If you were injured in a mishap such as one of the incidents described above, we urge you to waste no time in contacting our firm today. Working one-on-one with an injury attorney from our Kansas office can ensure that you take the legal action necessary to try to help you recover compensation for an injury that was wrongfully sustained in a premises liability case because of negligence.

Is Premises Liability The Same As Negligence?

Premises liability is a subset of negligence, in the same way that motor vehicle collisions can be a subset of personal injury or wrongful death cases. By definition, allowing safety hazards to occur on a property is neglecting it, as the owner is failing to exercise proper care.

What Is The Difference Between Premises Liability And Personal Liability?

Context is the key difference between premises liability and personal liability. Although both involve negligence, premises liability refers to unsafe property conditions, while personal liability refers to one’s own, direct, unsafe actions.

In other words, personal liability usually stems from a physical actor being present to perform the negligent action, whereas in premises liability cases, the instance of negligence occurs as a result of the unsafe property conditions.
