Defining Premise Liability
Before getting into the laws involving premise liability, it is important to understand what premise liability is. Premise liability refers to situations where a person is injured due to unsafe conditions on another person’s property. The owner of the land or property that has dangerous circumstances can be held liable for the injured party’s injuries if they should have known that the space was unsafe. However, premise liability cases can only be pursued if the injuries were caused by the property owner’s negligence, i.e. the property not been properly maintained.
Types Of Premise Liability Cases
There are many different types of premise liability cases that exist. In fact, there are many types of legal issues that can fall within the premise liability category. Examples of topics that can be included within premise liability cases include slip and fall accidents, dog bite accidents, faulty equipment, water leakage and flooding, fire, lighting problems, maintenance issues, etc.
What Makes A Premise Liability Case Viable?
If an injured person wishes to file a premise liability case, it is important that they have proper evidence that their injuries were caused by unsafe circumstances on the other party’s land or property. But not only that, there must be evidence that the dangerous conditions were caused by improper maintenance and the property owner’s negligence. In order to avoid premise liability lawsuits, property owners need to ensure that their premises are safe, warn guests of any safety hazards, and get those problems fixed as soon as they can.
However, if a person is injured on someone else’s property but their injuries were not due to the property’s conditions, there is not a viable premise liability case to be had. Their injuries must be directly linked to a problem with the premises. Also, while property owners are required to keep their premises safe and clean, certain states have different laws that affect a property owner’s duty of care when a premise liability lawsuit is levied against them.
In some states, personal injury claims can only be made against property owners by invitees (individuals who are guests on the property, such as shoppers in a store) and licensees (people who are visiting the property with the consent of the owner, such as vendors or business partners) but not by trespassers (people who are on the property without the owner’s permission). To learn more about whether your case will hold up in a court of law, feel free to reach out to us at LeBaron & Jensen.

A settlement is always better than negotiating or fighting with difficult to read Pleadings. What is Chase's strategy? To get great results and stay out of court.

I had a great experience with LeBaron & Jensen P.C. They kept in contact with me throughout the entire process, and were extremely informative and explained anything I didn’t understand about the proceedings of the case. I would highly recommend LeBaron & Jensen to anyone seeking Legal representation. I was driving westbound on Highway 193 in Clearfield Utah, when I came to the intersection of 1000 East and Highway 193. I noticed that a firetruck was travelling east towards the intersection with its emergency lights on, all traffic around me, including myself, slowed to a stop to allow the firetruck an unimpeded path to travel. However, I noticed the Jeep behind me wasn’t slowing down. There wasn’t anything I could do to avoid the collision, so I just braced for impact. Although I was wearing my seatbelt, I still suffered many injuries to my neck, shoulders, back, and arms. About a month after the accident I finally sought medical help for my injuries. I underwent many years of treatment for my accident-related injuries, including a carpel tunnel surgery and 2 rhyzotomy procedures, x-rays, MRIs causing me to incur over $60,000 in medical expenses. I decided I should seek legal help with my case, as I knew there was no way I could pay my medical expenses on my own. The legal team at LeBaron & Jensen were exceptional. They were able to negotiate with my health insurance and medical providers, lowering costs where they could. When all my legal and medical fees were paid, I was left with over $79,000. This money will help me pay for the future treatment that I will have to receive to try and help alleviate my future pain and suffering. I’m grateful for LeBaron & Jensen P.C. and everyone there who helped with my case! I thank them every day for the patience and persistence it took to see this through to a beneficial end.

LeBaron & Jensen did a great job for me, kept me informed throughout the process, and helped make sure that I got the compensation I needed. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is suffering after an accident like mine. I was driving eastbound on Highway 193, a four-lane highway in Layton, Utah. I came to a stop at the two-way intersection of Highway 193 and North Hills Drive. The other driver failed to yield to my right-of-way and proceeded southbound through the intersection, I wasn’t able to stop fast enough, and I T-boned the other vehicle at a high speed. The impact of the crash was so severe that it triggered my vehicle’s airbags. The severity of the crash caused many serious and extensive injuries to my neck, back, shoulders, and head. Thankfully, I was restrained by my seatbelt, which prevented any worse injuries. I had to receive treatment for over a year and a half following the accident, including surgery on one of my shoulders. I was faced with $76,000 in medical bills. I knew I needed help, so I contacted LeBaron & Jensen P.C. Their attorneys worked diligently and negotiated with my insurance providers. After paying all my medical and legal fees, I was still able to pocket $51,000 to compensate for the pain, and suffering I endured because of the accident.

In January of 2014, my husband was involved in a terrible accident. He was driving on highway 89 in Wellsville, UT, when another driver ran a stop sign and pulled out in front of him. He tried to swerve out of the way, but he wasn’t able to avoid hitting the other vehicle. The resulting impact was so severe that even though he was wearing a seatbelt, he was violently thrown around in the cab of his truck and, as a result, hit his head on the windshield. This caused many injuries to his shoulders, back, and neck. My husband also suffered massive bruising and internal damage, and that’s not even the full extent of the injuries he suffered. He had to receive extensive treatments, including several shoulder surgeries, to try and help alleviate the pain he suffered because of the accident. Even after he underwent all those treatments he was still left in immense pain, and to top it all off, he was diagnosed with cancer in July of 2016. He decided to put off treatment for his shoulders to try and focus on his cancer treatments. He passed away in October of 2017. LeBaron & Jensen were there fighting for us through it all. They were able to get a settlement that covered all of Robert’s accident-related medical bills and all the required legal fees and additional money for his pain and suffering as a result of the accident. I’m so grateful for LeBaron & Jensen and all their support for myself and my husband through the years.
