San Antonio Premises Liability Claim - Building Code Violations

After you suffer from a personal injury on a private property in San Antonio, you may be entitled to financial compensation for disastrous injuries that you suffered as a result. If this is the case, then working with San Antonio premises liability lawyers is a vital step to guarantee that you receive the maximum possible settlement from the party liable for your injury. Recovering after an accident that was caused by building code violations and negligence property owners can take time and you deserve both the time and means to focus on that recovery entirely.

A premises liability claim is related to any injury that occurs due to a dangerous condition on a property. This can be wet floors, poorly maintained stairs, uneven walkways, and many other conditions. Because of the expansive nature of these cases, working alongside a San Antonio Tx premises liability law firm is the best way to fight for the settlement and justice you deserve.

At Carabin Shaw, our expert lawyers are dedicated to serving the client as best as possible. This means supporting you and your case from the moment of your accident to the moment you receive your compensation. Our attorneys also offer free case review / initial consultation and employ a contingent fee-agreement while working with you. This means that, from the moment of the consultation, you pay nothing for the services of our attorneys until your case is won.

Aspects of a San Antonio Premises Liability Claim

Premises liability cases have multiple facets, and one of the most important is to establish the relationship of the victim to the property and its owner. There are three categories of visitor to a property, and each of them is owed a different level of security from the property owner or manager.

1. Invitees

An invitee is owed the highest level of safety from the property owner. An invitee is a person who enters a property with the owner's permission and for the benefit of both the individual and the property owner. This most often includes mall shoppers, restaurant guests, and other patrons of a business. For invitees, property owners are required to inspect for hazardous conditions, make those conditions safe, and make the visitors aware of those dangerous conditions.

2. Licensees

A licensee is a person who enters a property with the knowledge and permission of the owner, similar to the invitee. A licensee, however, enters the property for their own benefit alone (legally). This category can include salespersons, house guests, and similar visitors. While property owners are required to make hazardous conditions safe for licensees, and make them aware of any potential hazards, property owners are not required to inspect for those dangers.

3. Trespassers

Trespassers are the third category of property visitor, and enter a property without the owner’s permission or knowledge. As such, they are owed no general safety on behalf of the owner apart from gross negligence or intentional harm.

Establishing the relationship between a property visitor and the building in violation of code may seem daunting, but Texas premises liability lawyers at Carabin Shaw are experts in their field and have years of experience with cases such as these.
